This may be a little bit tacky, and if I offend anyone I truly am sorry. But what make someone elgible to be a receiver in a big give project? :confused3
As most of you know my situation, I feel that my oldest 8 year old daughter may be considered special enough. Just a thought, Im not holding out my hand and begging or anything, but know what we go thru on a daily.

She has been diagnosed; ADHD, has high anxiety, ODD, bi-polar, watched for Aspbergers, she is learning disabled, she has propreoceptive and vistubular delays and sensory issues. She also has mild schitzofrenia (spelling ?). All 4 of my daughters are adopted. We got her at 11 months and she was in a bottle, not walking, not talking, and very sick. She had lived in 13 different places (including outside in November in Michigan, shelters, basements, cars, and apartments), she was in her car seat and thrown across a room, witnessed domestic violence, saw her birth parents hem hem "have relations", and been left alone for days at churches and peoples houses.

We got to a counselors once a week, goto rehab every other week, goto a "peer play group" every other week, see a psychologist every month, a case manager comes to our house once a week, and every 6 months she sees a neurologist to track seizures and the aspburgers syndrome (she has not been diagnosed, however they are watching her for this)

Like I said, I truly am not a begger, and I don't expect anything, just curious really what it would take to grab the attention of you lovely ladies (and man) for the big give project. Please forgive me if you feel offended or if you feel that I am in the wrong, this was never my intentions.


Don't have a good answer for you but I wanted to send you a :hug:
 
Hi Everyone,

Im in the middle of making abby (my friends little girl) a birthday outfit like the ones I did for Elizabeth and Hannah. Now, I made the Aline top a size 5, but the shortest length - it looks sooooo small - has anyone done one like this?????? if so, could you please post it? Im so worried it wont fit!!! AHHHHH!!! she is a petite 5 (she is the watermelon outfit girl) but Im still not sure!!!

THanks, Wendy:scared1:
 
I have a ? about the brown and blue triangle hem dress.

Did you sew the fabric and lining together then sew the strips together or did you sew all the lining strips then sew all the fabris strips and back them?

Did that even make any sense? :confused3

On that one I did the strips and then I added the lining all in one piece. I will never do that again. I ended up wasting a lot of fabric. If I end up doing it again I plan on doing the lining the same way as the top part. Make sense?

You raise a very good question! I think we're all still trying to work through all of this, and we haven't worked through everything yet. I REALLY appreciate you asking... I think this needs to be considered.
 
Here are a few things I have made that have been keeping me busy

Those are great! Love the pirate one and love the way you hemmed the pink outfit! I've missed seeing your little one-she's too cute!

Heck this boy has me looking all over the earth for new yellow Mickey crocs! His are toast but he insists on yellow mickey ones!
I found yellow Mickey crocs at Marshalls in kids sizes and lime green ones too.

I finally made a 4th of July top for DD10--the nice thing about the criss cross pattern is since it goes by measurements, I didn't have to alter the pattern to make it fit my size 12 girl! :cool1:

That came out great! I was thinking of getting that pattern. How is the back done?

I have a friend that is leaving for the beach on Saturday and I have decided at the last minute that I wanted to do something for both of her boys to wear. (She has been a great friend to me lately and I want to do something nice for her in return.)

Since they are going to the beach and there is a pirate ship where they are going, I thought about doing an outfit like the one I did Michael:

The only problem I have is I don't have enough of the material to make both boys the shorts -- they are age 3.5 and 9 months. Do you think that the shorts would look alright with a leg of the skulls material and then a solid color for the other? Which color would you use -- black, red or white?

Let me know what you think!!!
I think the shorts would look cute. I think either red or black would work.
 
Candice, I can't remember if I quoted you or not? But I love the new outfits! That pink fabric/curtain :rotfl: is gorgeous!!!

This is what I have been up to lately. There were about 6 other things that are at my grandparent's house. I took them to Jenna the other night so she could go ahead and enjoy them.

This is Jenna's Wall-E dress.

Her July 4th outfit.

A funky outfit that she picked the fabric for.

A Minnie Mouse outfit. I can't remember who gave me the Minnie panel, but thanks again.

A 4 corners dress.

Hannah Montana project that I was working on.
S2010153.jpg

A blue and brown outfit to match some bows she asked me to make for her.

That's it for now. Last week I made her three nightgowns, a brown and pink knit dress, and a cherry outfit. I didn't get any pictures of any of it.

I am amazed at your productivity! Such beautiful things! And I'm glad to see someone finally using one of the minnie panels!!!

This is my second time using this pattern and it was way faster the second time. It is pretty easy. On the back, the fabric piece is folded over, then you run a stitch close to the top, then 4 more rows after that 1/2" apart and you thread 4 pieces of 3/8" elastic through the 4 casings. The pattern said to thread them all at the same time which I did the first time. :headache: The second time I just threaded them one at a time and it was MUCH easier :confused3

I would have used it sooner, but I wanted to find the coordinating fabric. Which I did finally find on :wizard: .

I just wanted to send some hugs too. This must be very difficult for you, your DD, your DH and your other 3 children.:hug: :hug: :hug:

Thanks! I think I'll have to try it.

I was going to say that fabric matched perfectly!

Confession time: I just made the yummiest (and by that I mean most fatteningly unhealthy) cake. :cloud9: I'm DISing to keep myself from having another piece.

What kind of cake did you make???;) :rolleyes1
 
ummm...technically it's a poppyseed bundt cake, but you might as well just call it Butter Cake :cloud9:


Ummmmmm... I think it's not very polite to not offer us a piece..

WANNA SHARE SOME????? Pretty please- with butter cake on top??? :bitelip:
 
lol, I love my hsower curtains! lol, The pink outfit was made from a nusery curtain fabric from the baby section at Target :) The pink was the lining and the print was the outside! lol


Thanks for all the kind words about my outfits :goodvibes You guys are awesome!

I knew that fabric looked familiar... I just couldn't put my finger on it. After seeing your adorable monkey dress I check Target every time I go... just waiting for the day that shower curtain goes on sale. :rotfl2:

Hey all, sorry for the fly by, but Heather yelled at me for not posting that I updated my TR, so, I updated my TR yesterday.

things here have been crazy, tryign to dealw ith both parents not having a job. Still trying to figure things out. I am still half done with my big give stuff....I haven't sewed in weeks, so I have been ashamed to even stop by here.

As soon as I get things done, and my life back in order, I'll be back....promise. thank goodness for the new photobucket account, since I haven't read ANYTHING on this whole new thread! :blush:
