[emcreative]

Well here it is. My first completed applique with my new embroidery machine!! I am working on an UP outfit for my son also. I work at Gymboree so I just did this one real quick to go with a pair of knits shorts from the mermaid magic line. I am pretty happy with the results. It's one of Dena's designs. The pic is kinda blurry but you guys get the idea.

on your first applique. It looks great!

LADIES

Has anyone done anything "Megara" from Hercules, particularly that would work for an older girl? (12) My daughter Emmy came to me tonight and said she loves Megara (not sure where that came from, I knew Mulan, Pocahontas and Esmaralda but this was a surprise!) and I'm so flipping excited there's something she WANTS that I'd love to brain storm something up special for her.

Ideas would be SO FANTASTIC from this creative crew! Thanks!

Marah

Someone did Megara awhile back, I am thinking it was Sally? It's been quite awhile!

Well... seems like all I get is bad news lately. or at least the bad over rides the good.

I think I told you all that when I went to my mom's to help out with my step dad my mom had been sick. she thought it was just a cold a really really bad cold. She went to the dr it was Bronchitis that was a few weeks ago. last week she got worse. Went to the dr for a MRI, they found a lump on her lung. They did surgery yesterday and a PET scan to find out if its cancerous or not. She is at the specialist office today. I haven't heard from her yet.

Please keep her in your prayers. thanks, I know there is so much love on this board.

I hope it's not cancer.

It is definitely worth it for all of the patterns you get. I have seen several dresses made out of the book and they are gorgeous. I love her patterns. She is very detailed. I don't have the book yet. I have patterns coming out of my ears.

Miranda!!! I love your 2nd Boo dress!!! That fabric was so perfect for that. Where did you get the flower one?? Your progress is really amazing. Your hubby will be so lucky to come home to such a great seamstress. Omgosh.. Is he in the Army? I can't remember. There is a really cute embroidery design on sewforum that has combat boots and says "My Hero Wears Combat Boots" on it. I can point you in the direction if you are interested.

Sorry to hear about your mom PrincessKell. I said a prayer for you and your family.

Here is the Sleeping Beauty dress my mom made for when they went to DW. I think I like it better with the ribbon strap thingie. It keeps it up pretty good. She just took the sleeves off of the costume pattern she had. I just did the embroidery.
It is getting short on her now. Guess that means its ruffle time.
I couldnt remember if the collar just stands up, but I turned it down in one of the picture.. it goes up right? oops.. thats why I took another picture. yes, that was the best one I could get. I had to promise her that I would email the picture to Aurora for the first one....
If anyone has her email let me know please.

That is so cute!!! And, once again I'm amazed at how much you and your daughter look alike!

Look at Baby Abby in her dress! I am a proud Auntie!

AWWWW!!!! What a cutie pie!!!

LOL, I totally understand...
My son 5 was tearing apart his closet the other day and I asked him what he was doing, he told me he could not find the right t-shirt with the applique for the shorts he was wearing. I tried to explain that I had not made one yet, and he wanted to know why I had told him the shorts were done then if I had not made a shirt??

that is too cute!

I am closing in the outfits for DL. We leave Sat afternoon. I still have 2 capri with cuff and belts in red dots and two shirts for DH. The on the wish list is a kimono style dress shirt for the DS BFF.

Jeanne, It was so nice of you to make the original shirt for Hunter. We liked them so much I made them for the others. Thank you again.

Linnette helped me with this dress and we got it done in an evening. After a few adjustments. Don't make this with a ribbed knit top, it doesn't work well as you can see.

Hey, April, didn't we have a little talk about you cutting off your head like that??? You are too pretty to do that! Everything looks great!!!

AIMEE: I totally lost the quote but I LOVE the Marie outfit!!! It is adorable.

I want to thank Kathy - dis Id NaeNae for helping me with these! She was a super help!! thank you...
I decided to go with the gerber cloth diapers... sadly walmart was all out.. so had to go to Babies r us but I got them done! woo hoo! I hope the mommy likes them...... My first time ever doing these

Lori

Lori, what a nice gift, you did a great job!

Okay I am still trying to decide if I like the skirt or not. It seemed like a great idea in my head, but in reality it totally clashes with itself..... it is at least 50 different prints and the only thing they have in common is that they are all Disney, none of the colors or tones are similar.

Taylor was watching an old Disney VHS and there was a preview that talked about how it all started with a mouse, then it panned out to hundreds of small pixel like squares and then slowly zoomed in revealing different disney movies/characters. I was trying to capture that idea, but I don't know if I was able to pull it off, it may just be a few too many different colors.

I couldn't really get any good pics, taylor was not in a posing mood....she kept doing this before my camera would flash

Here you might be able to see the outfit better since she wouldn't hold still.

LOVE THIS, very clever.

Look at Baby Abby in her dress! I am a proud Auntie!

AWWWWE. That's all I have to say about Thaaat.

Ok, still no baby. I don't think it's ever coming. To be fair I'm not due for 12 more days but still....

Size Question for a simply sweet halter
Sophia is in between sizes should I go up a size or down??

I would go up, you can always make the elastic in the back shorter which will tighten everything up. DD3 wears a 3 but I make her the size 4 and cut the elastic a whole inch shorter than called for.

 

[PrincessKell]

So I know this awesome lady who is really super creative. She created an ebook and I had the fantastic oppertunity to test it out for her. If I didn't test it, I would totally buy it here..
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26905189

here is what I made. I totally love it. you can make it look dressy boutiqueish or dress it down with jeans and a Tshirt under it.

Thanks!! That is what I figured. This is the first halter I've made and didn't know if it ran big. Just ironed the fabric getting ready for that first cut!

Help, please! I need a cheap pattern for boys elastic waist shorts for my nephew WDW outfits. He will need a size 6-8 depending on the style. He is wearing 5,6, and 7s right now. I looked on the famous auction site but didn't find anything.

 

[Tykatmadismomma]

I made up my own pattern for some board shorts with elastic for Tyler last year. It was pretty easy.

I would get Carla's easy fit pants from youcanmakethis.com . They'll last forever and since he seems to in several sizes they'll fit perfect! You can make them to his size easily and use it forever!

Look all the great stuff posted lately- and love that we have sucked even more of you into the disboutique trap!!! hahahaha

Aimeeg- I was wondering when we would start seeing customs for your upcoming trip. I always love your work.

Miranda- love the patchwork. I think that Camping Griswalds made a similar skirt a while back and it has always been one of my favorites. I love yours, esp the walt/mickey applique. Too cute

And there are tons more things that I loved and should comment on. I am super late for work and weeks behind- story of my life. I am still putting in right at 60-70 hours a week. It is exhausting.

And my mom called yesterday to tell me that she was a klutz and she shattered her knee cap. She is having surgery today. I am such a total brat, the first thing that I thought of was- how is she going to get around the park in Sept. I didn't say anything to her, but I feel like such a jerk thinking that. If they can repair it, they will, but she will have pins in her knee for 6 months, then another surgery. The other option is removing the knee cap all together- seem like you need that, but apparently, you don't. In that case, she would be OK with just some rehab. She is really pushing for the second option as it has a quicker recovery. I just want her to be OK either way.

 

[aimeeg]

Thank you all so much for the sweet words about little Marie. I had to crack up about the 12 step cousin! LOL If you did not figure it out it was supposed to say 12 year old step cousin.

I am hoping to finish the girls stepsister dresses today. I was not planning on making too much new stuff for this trip but I am having issues with not using my new machine. I am hoping to have a productive day today. I need to construct Anastasia and Drizella. Then I need to finish one Minnie Mouse skirt and make an entire new outfit. I put together a time line and I am trying to stick to it. Hopefully I will not have any last minute sewing. One can dream right!

Well here it is. My first completed applique with my new embroidery machine!! I am working on an UP outfit for my son also. I work at Gymboree so I just did this one real quick to go with a pair of knits shorts from the mermaid magic line. I am pretty happy with the results. It's one of Dena's designs. The pic is kinda blurry but you guys get the idea.

That's cute! You work at Gymboree? LOVE that store! Probably way too much!


On my sewing table today - Ariel Vida. It's almost finished. I'm loving it so far, and I can't wait to see it on AbbyGrace. Hopefully I'll have pics today.

We are back from Atlanta and had a GREAT time! We even got to meet and hang out with Jessica and Dallas! Thanks Jessica for a great day!
the kids where so cute together! I will upload pics soon.
I just have to tell you her stuff is even MORE amazing in person! If that is even possible! The best part is she has given me some confidence to really do my 1st face applique. Yeah I know I have said I was doing it for awhile but now I am actually going to do it! So if it comes out good I will thank her again and if it is bad don't worry Jess I won't mention you again

I will try to catch up if possible! I missed so much!
George is home from work this week so I may not get a lot of computer time other then in the am but defiantly by next week I will post a bunch of pics from meeting Jessica and cutie Dallas. As well as our trip to AG in Atlanta

Very cute. Love the cherry fabric.

The other option is removing the knee cap all together- seem like you need that, but apparently, you don't. .

I had to laugh at this one. Have you seen Monsters vs. Aliens? My kids love Bob, he has no brain. Cause 'apparently you don't need one'. They love that line.
