Wow, I am just sitting here with my mouth hung open. That dress is gorgeous, seriously you deserve a prize or medal or something for that. WOW

HEATHER- I forgot to say the pup looks GORGEOUS in her outfit as well!

Okay I FINALLY finished a skirt that I have been working on caseing for like FOREVER!!!! I was sooo happy to have it finished and it turned out better than I expected, but it is not FANTASTIC! So hopefully, if you all promise not to look to closely, especially the ruffle which is HORRIBLE, I will post some pics later! First I have to straighten up, give baths, make dinner, and get the little one to bed! See you guys later!

Hey Any ideas or suggestions out there to help me out???
This was the pink and purple belle & aurora stripwork jumper

To make a bodice into an open corset style, post production is a bit of a hassle. I've always called them apron dresses, because that's what they call them on the hippie sites.

To make a corset bodice, you leave the center back open, and line the bodice. You can either make loops at even intervals along the back to lace the straps through, buttonholes, or grommets/eyelets. Post production, you could try edging the back with double fold bias to cover the raw edges, but I usually like the sew together and top-stitched lining for durability with the straps.

At the bottom, you add a strip of skirt between the two sides of the bodice, and either put in elastic or a drawstring into the top of that "free" skirt part, so as you loosen the bodice, you have room in the skirt, and as you tighten the bodice, there's no gaping in the back.

Make the straps SUPER long, attach at the shoulder, cross in back, and lace up. Make a bow at the bottom.

Clear as mud??

I'm sorry, I have no pics right now. I'll see if I can go dig out one of brianna's apron dresses later and post pics (hers and mine are packed up for the winter right now).

Heather, that dress is great! Good job! Did you use a pattern or wing it?

Doing the Lydia:

WOW!!!! This dress is just beautiful and so is your dd. I better not let my dd see this...everytime she see a picture on here, she wants one just like it and I am still learning and can't even make half of what you ladies do here.

 

[mommy2allgirls]

Ok, I am not good at this stuff but here is a onsie I just made for my youngest dd who 1, I am having a hard time finding things for her. A fellow member might be making a twirl skirt to go. I plan on doing all the princesses. What do you think? Please be honest

ETA: STILL NEEDS TO FINISH DRYING

 

[SallyfromDE]

One of my DGD wore one of my first custom outfits to a Festival and came back very indignant(sp?). She told me that her Daddy tried to "sell" her outfit three times that day and she would have had to come home NAKIT!!!

From then on anytime she puts on one of my customs (my DGDs are my primary models so I make the prototypes in their sizes) she wags her finger at her Daddy and tells him he can't "sell" it while she is wearing it.

I really like this outfit. How do you put rick rack on? Do you zig zag? Or just straight stitch? I always wondered about that.

Hi everyone! We're back from our most wonderful trip! We had a great time and the girls got loads of attention because of their outfits. It was worth every stabbed finger and broken needle. There was one day they did not wear a custom because it was just too cold and I figured it was better to bundle them up. But other than that, every outfit was worn. I'm horrible at trip reports so I'm just going to post an outfit report in photos here

I call this Day 1 even though it's late Thursday night. We traveled on the red eye and this was taken before we left. The dresses were also their Christmas Day dresses. For Christmas the Mickey heads had a Santa Hat tacked on and then I took it off and appliqued the bows for our trip.

Day 7- Disney's Hollywood Studios
Daisy attracted everyone from every corner of the park. They could not get over her outfit which cracks me up because it was so darn simple! Tabitha got a bit of attention too, since she's so bright, but most commented on the Einstein's outfit.

Day 9- Magic Kingdom
Tabitha's garnered the most attention due to the pants and all day long I was asked if I sewed their outfits. One man even pointed us out to his family later in the day after he had seen us earlier. They were great outfits for our very last magical day (we won after park passes for an extra hour in the park).

There you have it! For those interested in photopass pictures you can see those here. I have zero hope in catching up and won't even try since I was behind before we left! But I hope to stay more active now that I'm not trying to finish so many outfits. On the other hand, I do have a birthday dress, a recital dress and two Easter outfits to complete by the end of March, so we'll see, lol.

WOW! I LOVE them all! I am so glad you got the Minnie picture! Those are one of my favorites for some reason. I love seeing all the kids by them. And the HATS are to die for. I was going to get my son a penguin one but then thought he was too old, I now see that you are never too old for such adorable hats! You did a good job on all the outfits!

We leave tomorrow! The day before we leave on any trip is so stressful for me, it might actually be worse than the day we leave WDW to go home. I hate packing and I hate packing with the thought that I might forget something important. I have lists but I always worry about what I might forget.

Plus I have to run all those last minute errands. In addition, today I am going to tour a preschool for DD to attend in the fall. This stresses me all out on a whole other level.

I am the EXACT same way, although I have turned it into being a wreck almost the entire week before worrying about things.

Here's what I did with that fabric...

And here's a link to the photobucket site of all the outfits using this fabric..

This has always been one of my favorite outfits!

I am once again soooooo behind I have been sick again plus a major tooth ache i am like 15 or so pages behind i have been lurking but not commenting,
why is it everytime i jump on here i want to Case everything i see? oh yea! it is because we are some very talented peeps
I love all the adorable lil kids and i am so sorry about the mean things that have been said
My kids have once again gone back to school after a long 4wk vacation (yr Round) i felt so bad we have about 6-7 inches of snow on the ground & it is cold and here i am shoving them out the door .
well everyone have a great day i am gonna go dose myself up and try to catch some more sleep before the 2 lil one's wake up..

Get well soon! How are the quilts you and Utah were working on?

I read through about 50 pages here today and I am very impressed with what I've seen. I meet Tom on another thread here so I have been watching his work for a while. I am the mother of 3 boys so I don't sew nearly as often as I'd like and mostly make Disney blankets, potholders and costumes. I have made a few custom Disney things for myself, but usually stick to designing Disney t-shirts. If you ever happen to visit the Creative Designs forums you will find me over there.

I bought this fabric at Joann's tonight and was wondering if any of you had made anything with it. I'm thinking of making a sarong for my bathing suit with it as I think it may be too busy for a top. With no little girls to "doll up" I'm a bit limited.

I'm thinking of making some of the princess hair clips, but making them as lapel pins that way I can wear them too.

One of my favorite fabrics! I made me a tshirt with it. I'll have to post a picture if there isn't one in photobucket. I am not sure I ever posted pictures of it.

This is the fabric I used for the appliques- dd is only 18 months and the pillowcases princesses are to big for her but I really wanted to do a princess jumper so I found this. It was at walmart.

LOVE it!

Here is a grown up outfit one of us made:

I always loved this one too!

Hi,

WELCOME!!!! This place is awesome yet addicting!!

]We leave tomorrow!

Hi everyone! We're back from our most wonderful trip! We had a great time and the girls got loads of attention because of their outfits.

I love all of your beautiful outfits! The girls look great in each one!!! What special memories! I made some crumby t-shirts for our last trip. We got so much attention that it did become embarrassing!

You guys are not going to believe this. My ruffler foot just BROKE! It's been acting kinda wonky. Anyone know where to find a ruffler foot for a good price?

Awwwww sorry about it breaking. I just bought a generic low shank ruffler at Joann's for $14. It was the only one they had.

Do I detect a glitter effect on the dark pink fabric? PERFECT Nana

 

[twob4him]

OK here they are....pics of the pillowcase dress and my DD9's outfit.


I loved the whole princess and couldnt bear to cut her head off for the bodice, so I made it into a huge applique! I made the top big enough to wear for the next year or so in hopes that a Disney vacation will materialize.....

I havent shirred the sleeves. I dont know if I will or not...

OK and now for my MLK Day sewing marathon....

DD9 picked out the fabrics and the patterns (From YCMT)....

I feel bad for leaving DD4 out so here's pic of her sitting on the bench getting her shoes on this morning.....

And there you have it. Now I bought three pillow cases (with 2 pics each) and have 5 more tops to do plus any bottoms the girls want. I havent even gotten to the fact that Valentine's and Easter is coming

can you tell us the sizes for the ruffles on the jeans? Please teach me how to do this. Thanks so much.

I really like this outfit. How do you put rick rack on? Do you zig zag? Or just straight stitch? I always wondered about that.

All you do is run a straight stitch down the center. I like the "look" of Rec Rac and then if the item needs top stitching (ie to hold the ruffle in place) the application of the Ric Rac takes the place of the top stitching. Nana
