Yes, the grown up Simba on DS's shirt and the outfits from our 2010 trip were done by hand. These were before I got the new machine The baby simba in the first picture was the first design I tried on the PE770. I will probably continue to do most of DS's shirts by hand - I like BIG appliques
I like big appliques too but can't even imagine hand appliquing. Those came out great.
No worries, I'll message you my address - how sweet you wanted to regift me one of your presents
Nice try!
So I finally finished the outfit I was making for my DD for DAK. I made one similar for someone else with a green bow on the Mickey head, but my DD wanted to have a crown on the mickey head. I couldn't find a piture I liked to copy, so I looked at pics to get an idea what it looked like and free handed it. I think it came out pretty good.
It's a little big because our trip is not until next year.
One more to finish up tomarrow.
That came out awesome!
Great job on the skirt.Ok...Photobucket we fought and I won now cough up the pictures.....
Here's what I've been working on as promised.....
DD Valentines Skirt Front - my first time doing applique. The hearts are a little wonking but DD loved them anyway
I have an idea for a set of matching shirts for my upcoming trip, but I think it will be too much to embroider. So, I'm thinking of using iron-on tranfer paper. Does anyone have a brand they recommend? Thank you!
Amy on the DISign thread sells some really great iron paper but I never tried it. I went the cheap route and purchased mine at Walmart. If you only need it for this trip you could do that but after a few washes it really starts to look yucky.
Here are a couple of outfits that I made this week. I am very excited about them because both of the designs were things that I digitized myself. I have figured out how to work the digitizing program and I am now really enjoying it! I have another outfit with a design that I made but it is only half finished.
I also did this outfit for a recent Big Give. The family has already received this so I can share it now. It is just like one that I made for my niece but her shirt was long sleeved.
This is the outfit that I made for the little boy in the Give family:
Everything looks amazing and love the digitalized designs.
This is my first time joining a message board, but your beautiful designs have inspired me. I still have to figure out the signature line and everything else....
In the meantime, my daughter is very sick and suffers from kidney disease. She just had surgery (her fourth) and has another planned for mid-Feb. We promised her a Disney trip in May to give her something positive to focus on. I'd like to make it extra special with some customized outfits / accessories for the trip, but have no idea where to start. I'm a quilter.... can anyone give me pointers on an easy project to start with? She loves Ariel and Minnie Mouse and loves to dress up. I have a Husky Embroidery machine and lots of accessories, just not very creative when it comes to clothing.
And sorry to hear about your daughter. Since you have an embroidery machine you can get some really cute designs and do appliquing.
This is the last outfit I'm going to make before our trip in .....15 days!
I am going to adjust the button placement so that it fits higher on her.
Nice job and Yeah for your upcoming trip.
I was wondering why I couldn't find sewing buddies in arts & crafts, You are all over here!!!!
Hello everyone!
And now I have a question,
In the disBoutique photobucket i found a pic of something I would like to know how it was done. Can anyone tell me how or steer me in the direction of how to make the lower back part of this dress. I am not sure what it is called, but the back part that looks bunched up that sits in the lower back. Thanks in advance.
And so glad to find this thread! When I get an extra sc I will browse the 160 some pages, and the past threads

Love that. I want that for my bedroom
I can't figure out how to quote.... but some quick answers:
We're in Burlington (between Niagara Falls and Toronto). I've tried all of our local Fabricland stores, but can only find the transportation Mickey print - I used it to make some pillowcases for Christmas. My sister works for Joann's at their office, but they don't have any actual stores in Canada! I'm going to try for the Lens Mill Outlet, but it's a bit of a drive. Walmart doesn't sell fabric in my area anymore.
If you look at the bottom right you can either hit QUOTE to that specific item or hit the " and you can multi quote the items.
