Wow! I'm super impressed! And I love the inside Tink Fabric! So cute!!
Love seeing all the pictures! And can I just say I love seeing a picture of one of your bags in action!
I'm on your list for a bag this fall, and I am so bad with measurements and visualizing in my head the size of things! Loved seeing a picture of the bag on a person! It's even bigger/better than I imagined! I'm so excited for you to create mine!
OMG! This is my favorite dessert at DHS! Yum!
Yah it was good - but I think I would order the Napoleon next time.
That's a great bag Victoria made. She got talent. I couldn't have done that.
Obviously talent gallops in your family!
I love her bag. Have fun at the AG sale....
off to VBS with three sleepy kids....fun
Nini
Way to go Victoria!!
That bag is amazing, especially considering she's only 13! She could have her on Etsy business before too long. Is the T for Tinkerbell or is that the person she made it for?? I love the colors and fabric, especially the lining! Beautiful!
T is for Tinkerbell.
Love V's bag! Great job. We would never have known it wasn't your work if you didn't tell us. Looks perfect! Like mother like daughter, I guess
Victoria did a Beautiful job on her bag. What a great future she has!
Victoria, you did a beautiful job on the bag
you have some wicked natural talent girl for sewing, just like your mama
have fun at the sale D~, drive safe!
oops, sorry didn't recognize that as the Haunted Mansion
for some reason
I have been following along, so finally decided to post, just to comment on Victoria's bag. What a fantastic job she did and I love the tink fabric!!!!!
Your PP pics are amazing. I am trying to edit mine from our June trip, it takes a long times when you have close to 500 to start with. I have to say yours turned out better, because you all know how to smile at the camera. My 2 year old is still wotking on this so some pics are awesome and some not so much.
Oh also, just saw pics of your sewing machines and I'm amazed you can do such awesome work by using such "classic" machines.
Have fun at the sale!
Yah - editing those PP pics when you return home is a full time job. LOL
Thanks - I LOVE my vintage machines!!! My aunt that went with me yesterday has been sewing forever - and when I was a little girl, I remember her trying to teach my cousin and I to sew. I was telling her about V making the bag, and how, at one point, she was going through 8 layers of fabric and 5 layers of quilting material at once, and Patience didn't even hiccup. I thought that was cool... Well then a few minutes later, she had to fold that portion over... so then she was going through 16 layers of fabric and 10 layers of quilting material...
I've never actually counted the layers I go through when I am making my bags... I am very fortunate to have such a good machine.
Ha ha, no quotes for me, but......
my reply on the iPad that was eaten was about half as long. The replying posted was from my PC. I may not learn the first or second time but by the third I switch to pc lol. The pc doesn't usually eat my responses. Lol
That is hilarious a out MM! My dog is sort of the same. As soon as she was done eating we would always put her outside as a result now the second she finishes she has to go outside lol gets old.
V's bag turned out awesome!
Thank you for the tip on the AG doll. I a, going to look up tat forum link you sent me earlier I don't want to do anything to wreck the dolls curls. Poor Elizabeth has been through quite a beating at Disney. I got the her the doll bag/back pack so that the doll stayed safe, well her hair can easily get caught in the zipper I packed the doll costumes in zip licks and labled with permanent marker. Well the marker rubbed off the bag onto the dolls legs. So she has black marks on her legs. At Epcot, surprise torrential downpour and I left the stroller with doll in it outside the land well it rained bad. So dolly carrier got wet, doll got wet, doll costume got wet and color from material ran onto the doll body who now has splotches of pink. Yes I am Not happy lol.
Off I go! Can't wait to see the new bag.
Victoria did a amazing job on the bag, what a great gift!!
Finally all caught up. Have no idea how I got so far behind. Oh yeah I do it's called KIDS!!!
First off love Victoria's bag. She did an awesome job!!
Enjoyed seeing all of your photopass pics! So much fun!!
Loved the Mary Poppins bag. The colors and everything look great together!!!
Wow! Victoria did a great job!!
Ok... So, to everyone that commented on V's bag... She wanted me to tell you "Tell them Thank You very much!"... She read each and every one of your replies - and I appreciate you all complimenting her.
She got to give her completed bag to her Godmother yesterday - and her Godmother LOVED it!!!! She was so happy that V took the time to make her something so special - she was genuinely thrilled - which made V so happy!
We had a great time at the sale yesterday! I was so happy to fulfill everyone's requests... Between the 4 of us, we ended up with 27 dolls and 4 Bitty Twins. This was a portion of our items before we loaded them in the car (we had one missing bag here)...
Then, this is everything that stayed at my house when my Aunt and cousins headed home (minus the doll outfits)...
When all was said and done... I spent 10 hours on the road yesterday - 6 of them driving home. My aunt and cousins spent 17 hours on the road - as they live about 3 hours north of me. It was a very long day for all of us (and I am still exhausted!), but we had a lot of fun. We don't do this every year, but when we can make it work with all of our schedules, we go for it! We all enjoy AG and we all love sharing it with like minded people.
Victoria's Godmother got her one of the $35 voucher dolls as a belated birthday gift - Victoria named her Reese. I also got myself a $35 voucher doll, which is nameless at the moment. These two new additions make our doll collection rather massive, and they no longer fit on our shelf.
I will be spending the remainder of my day in my sewing room. Since I "took yesterday off", I have a lot of catching up to do. It is my hope that I will finish my current bag and wallet today - but I just don't think that will happen... But I am going to try.
I hope you all have a wonderful day today!
And I will post pictures later today if I happen to finish this bag set.
D~
You did an amazing job! When I was your age I was sewing circle skirts (and I'd make my mom hem them) . . . this bag looks like your mom made it (and I have one of her first and I know how amazing they are!)!!! Fabulous job!
