[charlinn]

Man I miss so much on here. It takes me so long to get things completed because I am so indesicive. (Pardon my spelling I know that wasn't right) And then I miss out on so many pages here. Well I was trying to create the Insa skirt without the pattern and it came out okay. It doesn't look like it lays like it is supposed to but close enough for me. So I wanted to share some of the things that I have made for our trip at the beg. of Sept.

I still have to figure out what to do with the pants to go with the princess top.

OMG...These outfits are absolutely adorable!!!! Did you make the bow and the necklace on the Zebra/Mickey one? Darling!! My daughter loves the Joe Joe's Circus one!! Now guess what I have to do I wish I could aplique. I just need to give it a shot, I guess!! What talent you have!! And a darling daughter!

When I put everyone's dates up it looks like meeting on the 8th would probably be the best bet. We could actually do 2 meets one earlier n the week and the 2nd one later? I'm looking to get at least 20 people to one of them- then we could really set up something fun, but it might be impossible to do considering everyone's dates.


What ADR change are you talking about??

Here's what I have so far-

Heather- Feb 3-10
Jham Feb 7-14
2B4Him- Feb 5-8
Sohappy Feb 5-9
Stephres- Whenever!
Dinsey4me Feb. 10-17
Tinkerbell??
PrincessKayla- Whenever!
Karebear Feb. 8-11

Obviously, the 8th won't work for me, but if you do another one later, I'm there!

I was just thinking of you the other day! I finally made Drew an outfit with the pink and lime green skull material that you liked so much!!!!! She wore it to school yesterday so it's dirty, but as soon as it's clean I need to post a pic.

I love your newest creation!

I copied a cute tank top/swing dress from Walmart for DD10. I finally got to use the Alexander Henry fabric I got on sale!

Tonight is the night!!! I am going to do Isabelle's Friends around the world applique. I really hope that it goes well. I am currently worrying about the mickey ears on the little head. I don't want it to look like there is a muffin on her head I also don't know whether or not to use black thread to outline the face. It seems like it would look more like the authentic drawing that way, but black on peach would REALLY show up my mistakes, so I am still debating Hope you all have a great weekend I will be a slave to my house this weekend I am WAY behind.

NOW, where is that applique tutorial???
...t.

I want to see this when you get thru I am trying to figure something out for an outfit for dgd for epcot, I have just about figured out an outfit for each of our character meals

That is so cute. I want some of that Jack fabric so bad, but it is just too pricey. I love halloween too. I have already made two outfits for Jenna.

I decided to do a non-disney outfit today since I have not sewn in over a week. I don't want to get out of the habit!!

I think that I am going to try a cinderella applique. I am going to look for fabric this weekend. I thought I was finished sewing for our trip but I had to change our Crystal Palace ADR because MK is closing early on Oct 4th. So now we are going to 1900 Park Fare. Has anyone been? Thus the need for a new princess outfit for the trip!

Wow ladies. I have spent hours the past few days reading this thread. You all are beyond amazing and inspiring!

I have never sewn before, and didn't even own needle and thread for minor fixes. But your customs are so incredible I wanted to try, in a small way, to CASE something from here. A few days ago there was an adorable white shirt with black buttons making Mickey's head.

I got a black tshirt for my dd8 and some lime green buttons (she loves green), thread, and some needles. Many thumb-pricks later, and some frustrated grumbling, and leftover glue tackiness I have a shirt made. It's my first ever sewing project! I never even got to take home ec in high school. I'm so excited I immediately put my dd in the shirt and snapped a picture so I could come and introduce myself, in awe, to all of you!

Great job! The Mickey is adorable and so is your daughter!!!

It looks GREAT! You're a natural! I love the lime green - it really pops on the black.

Thanks! Now I just need to buy a sewing machine and take some lessons. Of course, I got to finish my last year of school first, and that 80 page paper due in 9 days that I've only written 4 pages of....

I love this! Where did you get this fabric? I love love love it!!

love this fabric and what a beautiful daughter you have!!!!

Man I miss so much on here. It takes me so long to get things completed because I am so indesicive. (Pardon my spelling I know that wasn't right) And then I miss out on so many pages here. Well I was trying to create the Insa skirt without the pattern and it came out okay. It doesn't look like it lays like it is supposed to but close enough for me. So I wanted to share some of the things that I have made for our trip at the beg. of Sept.

I still have to figure out what to do with the pants to go with the princess top.

Wow!!! I specially love the first one!!!! Love the applique's

Just a drive by because we are on our way out to a playdate but I wanted to share something.

I have the worst time finding shorts and pants for Megan. She is tall and leggy and I have a hard time finding slim sizes for her. She also prefers elastic waist to zippers and buttons, like any little kid.

So I found a tutorial on craftster about making shorts from a t-shirt and I tried with one of DH's (don't tell him). He wears only blue, black and tan so I didn't have a lot to choose from. I love how it came out and will have to check target or walmart for cheap t-shirts.

I used a henley style so it is thicker than the average t-shirt. My favorite part is you line up the pattern with the bottom so no hemming!

The only problem is my husband is too small! I need a bigger husband so I can make pants too, lol. I would also like to add patch pockets or something, but I am not Linnette so that is very hard for me. The best thing is they took 20 minutes from start to finish!

my husband forbade me from taking anymore of his tshirts for my sewing projects , but now you got me thinking that he got too many of them and might not notice two or three missing ones

BTW pockets are really easy to do , you'll be surprise!!!


MInnievanmom
you are too sweet!!! I know you will do a great job with your costume, I do not know if this would help but to do the front sweetheart shape I
measure around bust area -34inches - so the front piece is 17 plus 2 extra inches for seam allowence- so all together the front piece is 19"

fold pattern in half and cut the shape

at the waist I cut the pattern to give the shape

hope this help, I will pm in the morning!!

OK, I got Aurora done and tried to rephotograph Jasmine and Jojo. I'm still not thrilled with them - I think my camera is just giving up. I've had it 4 years so it's probably time for a new one.

Lisa all I can say is

Did you lean by yourself to do appliques? I really do not think I have the talent or patience to do this. Your work is truly a masterpiece!!!!
