I have a new embroidery machine and have been looking to download a couple of images that I do not have. I know some designs are better than others. I hate to spend the money to buy it and the shirt to put it on not to like it. Does anyone have any good recommendations that you have used. Right now I am specifically looking for Disney, but I know late I will want others so any suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you!

The very best is Heathersue on Etsy. I think everyone on this board will agree.
 
I was wondering if you usually call them spots as opposed to polka dots in the UK? I always find it interesting to hear what other English speaking countries call things (or even different parts of the United States!)


yeah i think most people in the UK would call them spots. polka dots to me are the little chocolate polka dots you use to bake but that may just be me :)

I think those chocolate dots would be called chips here, as in chocolate chips? I love the different uses of the "same" language!
 
Here is the one I made Juliet

I remember that and love it!
 
OK, I am really far behind but wanted to comment on what I have seen so far
We're leaving in just over two weeks and this is the first trip where I'm making customs for every day! I'm cheating a bit and bringing two sets I made my girls for our last trip, but this is what I've got so far:

First, the reruns - from last trip, Simply Sweets for one of our Epcot/Flower & Garden days, the smaller one sporting a new ruffle for some needed extra length.

Also a rerun, Simply Sweets for our travel day

2290815560051332420S425x425Q85.jpg


Still to make, tees to match the floral twirls, a Boo tee to go with the Monsters skirt, a Hollywood tee for a "bling" outfit my older DD requested, older DD's stripwork jumper, and Princess dresses for our Magic Kingdom day.
so many cute things. I really love the mickey dresses with the blue bodice.

Thanks for asking. He went back to work this morning. It has been 3 weeks since his surgery (16 days since the second one). He has all his staples out and seems to be healing quite nicely. Still having a little pain associated with the surgery, but he does have wires running down the side of his head just under the skin, and a battery pack in his chest, so I think the tissue around those are still in the healing process.

As for his phantom and nerve pain that the surgery was done to help. It does seem to be helping already, even though the battery pack is not even on yet. There is a certain amount of 'insertion effect' just from having the wires touch the proper spot on his brain, and he is having relief just from that.

Life is back to normal.... well at our house that means crazy busy with hockey and basketball, and we are going on a little trip this weekend to visit and ski with friends. (No, the man that had brain surgery does not plan to ski just yet, he will pass this time)
:hug:

minnie dots for our trip. i still need a minnie iron on thingy if anyone sells that with cheapish postage to the uk pm me

i've fallen in love with the simply sweet pattern
I can see why you have fallen in love with the simply sweet - all of your dresses are so cute.

So there I was at Disney World . . . at the Magic Kingdom. . . on the second floor of the Columiba Harbor House. . .in the bathroom. . . and there's a cute little girl wearing a patchwork twirl. I asked if her mommy made the skirt and the grandmother answered, 'yes and six other outfits as well'. We exchanged dis names -- it was jeniamt's daughter.
What are the odds???

That is so funny. We were keeping up with your "meet" as "Jeniamt" relayed the story from the meet up in the secret bathroom.

Soooo, this weekend we drove from Philly to Cedarville, OH to surprise my neice for her 19th Birthday. She is a freshman at Cedarville university, and I had this idea that we should go and see her. Her parents agreed, we rented a big SUV and packed it with the 8 of us plus Zoey and started drivin!!! The only bad thing was that poor Tim had had the flu all week and really wasnt himself - on the mend, but definately not Tim - it was so sad to see him like that!! Anyways - Bekah was SHOCKED and we had a great time!!
All of us by the Cedarville Rock

Any ways - it was so much fun and such a secret!! I love my Bekah
What an awesome birthday present. You have such a great family. Love the look of surprise on her face!

I posted earlier the Valentine's Day shirt I made for my DD6. here is the full outfit I made for my DD8:
and here are both Girls:

Thanks for looking
They look so happy. Great job on the valentine's outfits.

Oh I forgot I have a sewing project to share now that the Big Give package has arrived. This is what I made for Khelsey - a Patricia tunic with Eeyore trim/ruffles:

th_KhelseysTop.jpg

Thanks for looking. Now I am off to sew other things for the current Gives!
I'm sure she will love the tunic and matching big.

I will upload the pictures of the kiddos tomorrow. Since I am sure I will have a few minutes. I have to take DS to the ped since I am sure he has a double ear infection. Happy that my ped called in a prescription this afternoon so I have him started on that.

This poor kid of mine can not catch a break. Thankfully the girl is healthy and DH is on the mend.
Hope everyone is feeling much better soon.

Sorry! I usually copy my photos from facebook, but they changed the photo format and it is messing me up. Here is a bigger pic

Sleeping Beauty with a scratched nose
Thanks for the bigger pictutures. The sleeping beuty looks really nice with the sparkly skirt. I really like the fabric you used in the b-day dress.

okay here are my kiddos from yesterday. I was so happy to get one of DS somewhat looking at the camera

th_100_1075.jpg
Cute!


This is what I did yesterday:

This is Arminda's friend, Shelby. She is going to Disney World for the first time this week!!! She asked me to make her a Minnie Dot dress (which I don't have a picture of!) and a Drizella dress. She is practicing her Drizella pose in this picture. Love that girl!

and, just because they are silly, here are pictures I took of Shelby with Arminda and Lydia

181560_10150094178443160_677208159_6350945_4267012_n.jpg
Love the dress you made for Shelby. Those girls must keep you in stitches.

This wasn't SW weekend, we were just in the Studios and she wanted Princess Leia. I don't think I had the embroidery machine then either. Anyway, I used an old SW pattern and summerized it. Made a belt for her to hang her gun.

th_100_0310.jpg
Leia looks ready to fight some Storm Troopers.

Just downloaded my parent's pics. Here are a couple of the outfits (some you 'ol timers may have seen some before) Be prepared for photo overload:

th_IMG_2280.jpg


My parents are great grandparents but not the best photographers! They missed taking pics of a bunch of outfits! And the small pictures are b/c they apparently don't know what the zoom button on their camera is. I tried to crop the photos but it didn't make the picture any bigger.

This is the best they did for this outfit.
th_IMG_2325.jpg


You cannot imagine the strict instructions I gave them about taking pictures of her in the outfits but what can you do!?! They did take her to Disney World after all, geesh!

Thanks for looking!
Looks like a fun time was had by all. I guess they were too busy spoiling your daughter to take pictures.

I had my DGD6 over this weekend and I taught her to make the fleece blankets (we are sending them to the Big Give for Haiti). She completed one of them and she was soooo proud. She did most of the cutting and tying herself. I used blue tape to mark off where she needed to cut. It worked like a charm and she had the hang of it in no time.

And just because I had them this weekend (one on Saturday and one on Sunday) and it was super beautiful weather. I took them to the park and took lots of pictures. I had to share a couple of my favorites.

th_SDC15480.jpg

th_SDC15424.jpg
How sweet of her to make the blanket. She looks so proud of her hard work. I love the pictures of the girls at the park. What cuties

I finally finished my dissertation - all 185 pages!!! I'll have my PhD in just over a week!

And now I can finally get some sewing done (it's been a few late nights recently)! This is what I made my daughter for Valentine's. It's a ModKid pattern. Went together pretty easily! It was great to get back into it!
th_001-6.jpg

She was VERY posey!!
Thanks for looking!
Congratulations on getting your dissertation done! :cool1:
Your DD is getting so big. The Valentine's dress came out so nice. I love the stamps

It is my FAVORITE meal! The food is great and the characters are superb!! Well the steps are great, usually Cinderella is a bit of a dud!
I'm guessing Cinderella was a little upset because her "step-sisters" were getting so much attention.

th_DSC_0116.jpg

th_DSC_0131.jpg


Playing with a new pattern...and finished a dress I started over a year ago...still need to do the buttons!! (Easter Stripwork Jumper).

Thanks for letting me share! :)
These are so pretty.

I made myself an Evil Queen costume a couple years ago. I will warn you that no matter WHEN you do the Halloween party, it CAN be really hot. And no matter how you do it, this is a hot costume. I had mine on only briefly, long enough for pictures with the dwarfs.

I used several patterns, one for the cloak, one for the tunic, and another for the skull cap.

th_queenresize_002.jpg
I don't remember seeing this picture before. Just gorgeous!
 


Everything is adorable!! I love the first one with the added ruffle!!!
I was going to ask where you got that cool Mickey fabric too! I love it!


GREAT deal on the Monsters fabric!!!! Woo hoo! :woohoo:



I'm glad to hear things are going ok. I hope your husband has continued pain relief. I think a little trip is just what you need! And, I'm glad to hear your husband will not be skiing!


We moved the board, you will need to sign up for a new account and get approved. We are approving people pretty quickly, so you shouldn't have to wait long.


I love the dresses!!! And, your daughter is so cute!



I was wondering if you usually call them spots as opposed to polka dots in the UK? I always find it interesting to hear what other English speaking countries call things (or even different parts of the United States!)



That is so cool that you saw her!!


You guys are so sweet!!! I just love how close you all are!

And, everytime I see that picture of Bekah, I think it's my niece for a second!



Aww, thanks! I love her too! I made the dress a few years ago.

I finally found some of this Minnie Dot Fabric, but it costs $18.00 a metre! This is the first time I have seen it.

the minnie spot fabric is the only fabric i can ever get cheap. it was £2 a metre. I've ordered most my fabric from America just costs me loads for postage
 
thanks all for the nice comments. Going to attempt shorts next fot my little boy. I'm not really sue what to make for my little boy he will be 20 months when we go to disney. I know he's not bothered but feel a bit mean not doing anything for him when my daughter has lots of outfits. any ideas appreciated. he won't wear anything too fancy as he hates me putting anything on him including his coat and shoes :rolleyes1
 
Sooo many great things lately....I have been so busy! DH had surgery last week and then lots of pre-teen drama to deal with and PTA stuff....I will glad when spring gets here!

I love the beads! That is so great that she is raising her own money for the walk! Proud of both of you! I am sending you a PM.

I need to ask for prayers. My great-Aunt who has been cancer free for almost 20 years, just found out this week she has cancer again, in her lungs and stomach. They also found an Aneurysm just above her heart. So she is having a hard time and you guys are always great with prayers! I am going home to visit with her this weekend.

Keep up the good work guys and I will be checking in again soon!
I am so sorry to hear about your great Aunt. Definitely sending prayers her way.

I miss the preteen drama...the teen drama is worse. :rolleyes:

I PM'd you back

The dress is lovely. You are very kind to do the Give and the families really do appreciate the gifts. Thanks for giving to others. Just move with us when we go.


WTG, Mia, swim team is the best. Thanks for helping us move along. I am trying hard to make it happen before we leave. I don't know why?:confused3

They are beautiful braclets and I can't believe your living room. Our pets would have a field day and DH isn't one to see things. You are a great mom and wife to have such wonderful family that gives to others.


I hope your DH is healing well and the drama comes to an end quickly.

Prayers for your Great Aunt that she has peace and gets better. Travel safe on your visit.
Amazingly...our 4 cats just sat and watched.... they haven't been tempted to touch yet...and I stress yet. :rotfl:

i wasn't going to post these pics, but since you need help getting to p 249
i mentioned earlier about my cousins kid (now 4) who had Rhabdomyosarcoma cancer, spent a year and 44 chemo treatments in st judes and is now determined to be cured, and how to give them some happiness we are sending them to disney. they arrive on feb 27. here is a pic of a bag i made them and 2 t shirts i made for Ian.
mom reported back she loves the bag and Ian wants to wear his shirts every day.
another disclosure statement: I've only had a pe770 since dec 25, 2010, so i do not know all the tricks yet. i am still learning how to properly back fabric and hoop it.( so it wont pucker) and thanks to minnie van mom ( i think) i now know how to float a tshirt and that was after I made these and saw what you guys refer to as hoop burn.
did i type enough to move this along?:rotfl2:

I really can't see the hoop burn..... I had to stare quite a bit to figure out what you were talking about. They look great!!!!
Great Picture. Where was this taken?


So cute.



What an amazing daughter that you have:goodvibes


Love that dress. I too would love that dress as big girl size:goodvibes



Sending prayers:hug:



You did a great job.
Thank you. She was so upset last year when she found out that she would have to wait 2 years to walk. She did do quite a few training walks with me. She wanted to start to get prepared.
That is so awesome! I'm very impressed. I LOVE hearing stories like this. It's so nice to know there are some wonderful teens who are so giving and bravo to you for raising such a sweet, determined young lady.

My dd is so interested in all the children I have been doing things for as a part of the Big Give. She is suddenly very interested in sewing and has helped me (with great guidance) with a couple of things. I am hoping this summer to get her involved in a project making fabric books for visually impaired children (I am an optometrist). Hopefully my dd will have the enthusiasm that your does.

Please keep us posted as to the success of your dd's fundraising.



Adorable as always! I would love to learn to learn to hand embroider. I think yours looks great!



Your Great Aunt will certainly be in my thoughts. 20 years is a very long time to be cancer free. I can't even begin to imagine how difficult it must be for her to have to relive having cnacer again.

Well wishes for your dh on his recovery from surgery (hope it was nothing too serious and that he is doing well).

And I dread the preteen years -- my dd is 7 and I think she may already be a preteen :headache:



What a very sweet cousin you are! Sending them to Disney is above and beyond! I love that Ian adores his shirts. I think knowing he wants to wear them everyday tells you that you did a perfect job!
Thank you...I'll definitely keep everyone updated...even though I don't post much...I do lurk here so much that I feel like ya'll are already family.
I have a friend (who is a breast cancer survivor) who wants to help sell. And my sisters friend just contact us about selling some of the bracelets at her job. I told DD14 she better get busy!!!

This is not Disney related, or even sewing related...but it is family related, and we ARE trying to move the thread along...right?

Next year my DD10 will start Middle School. This is always a trying time in a young girl's life, even if there was no drama with the school.

The school she will have to go to is the absolute worst school in the county! The police have a regular presence there, because of the rapes, drugs, and gang activity. And yes, this is the middle school.

We had hoped to be moved before we had to deal with this issue, but it is just not in the cards (or finances for that matter) right now. We tried for a shot at a scholarship for a private school, but that fell through.

So, it looks like we will be homeschooling again next year. Of course, this time, hubby is not yet behind us on this idea. DD has looked at the different item available and has chosen her curriculum. I am all set to order it next month...

I guess I am asking for some Pixie dust....hopefully we can get Dad on our side before I order. Dad is still holding out for the private school. While I do believe education is a good investment, I just don't think we can afford the private school this year....

Nini
oh..... I really hope your DH sees that you are doing the very best for your daughter. Our school district was quite often on the police blog for years. Now that they actually have a police substation INSIDE the high school it has gotten so much better. almost like a different school than it was 5-6 years ago. I'm still nervous about DD going next year. But your school sounds so much worse.
No child should have to be scared of school :hug:

I hope maybe you can find a hidden scholarship or something for the private school. You never know.... it could happen :)

I'll do my part to help move the thread along.:lmao:

I posted this on FB but not every one is on there. I went Tues. for my regular, 6 month, check up with the oncologist. As of Tues. I am no longer on medication, tamoxifen (5 years), and I have been officially released!:banana::banana::banana:

That is great news!!!! I don't think I could post enough of these guys :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:

Which one? I have a Brother Innovis 4000D for embroidery and it is a sewing machine also. I sew on a Singer and I have a Simplicity serger.

I hope you get the machine you want and my only suggestion is to buy the machine with the biggest hoop you can afford. I upgraded with in 30 days of my first embroidery machine purchase. It was an expensive mistake!!!

I've been saving up for an embroidery machine...I was looking at the smaller ones at Walmart....DH just told me that I really should save up and get the larger one to start with :yay:

My dh just bought me a sewing table/cart for Valentine's Day!!!! He has no clue he bought it for me (yet) but seeing as I didn't get a Valentine's gift I just figured I'd pick out my own gift (sort of like the camera and cutting mat I had to buy myself at Christmas). Now I won't have to sew standing up anymore, but I think I'm going to have to have dh buy me an ironing board that hangs over the door too as my sewing table will need to go where the ironing board is. And boy is my laundry room going to be crowded now!
This cracked me up....I've shopped like that before....sometimes it's the best presents.... amazing how they 'know' exactly what we want ;)
Here is the one I made Juliet

great outfit...but I LOVE this smile!!!

Ok...I have to leave work now and I have an hour + drive home...don't leave me behind.
I've been stalking this thread....cause I don't want to miss the move.
 
thanks all for the nice comments. Going to attempt shorts next fot my little boy. I'm not really sue what to make for my little boy he will be 20 months when we go to disney.

What about a thin blanket? My friend's son LOVES blankets.... it doesn't matter if it's 90 degrees...he LOVES them.

Sending pixie dust and prayers.

Thanks! They took us outside 1900 Park Fare for us to get the picture all together. It was during the Cinderella's Happily Ever After dinner. We valet parked that night because it was raining when we got there. Even the valets were whispering as the girls past "The stepsisters are here, be careful!" Is Mary Poppins supposed to be there?
!
That is great that they did that. That is were I thought the picture was but I was trying to figure out why there were outside. I just love the step sisters too. They are so great.

:dance3::dance3::dance3::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::banana::banana::banana:

Would you guys mind telling me what kind of sewing machines you have?

I have lurked on here before and I am so impressed with all your creations and I am looking to get a new sewing machine so I can make stuff like this (I have an old simple machine that can't do much).

Hopefully if I get one for my birthday I can join in the fun here! Thanks!

I have a Brother Innovis 950D which also embroiders but only on a 4x4. Thsi was given to me by my mom. Well I had major hoop envy and convinced DH to let me by the PE770 and I also went out and bought a Brother serger too. (and I have only started to really sewing since summer:rotfl:)

My dh just bought me a sewing table/cart for Valentine's Day!!!! He has no clue he bought it for me (yet) but seeing as I didn't get a Valentine's gift I just figured I'd pick out my own gift (sort of like the camera and cutting mat I had to buy myself at Christmas).

And boy is my laundry room going to be crowded now!
Actually you don't need to by a new ironing board (unless you want a new one:lmao:) because they sell nice hangers that fit over the door at Bed Bath and Beyond in the laundry area. That is what I have to do with mine since my laundry area is small.


I was wondering if you usually call them spots as opposed to polka dots in the UK? I always find it interesting to hear what other English speaking countries call things (or even different parts of the United States!)


yeah i think most people in the UK would call them spots. polka dots to me are the little chocolate polka dots you use to bake but that may just be me :)
:lmao: I have never heard them call spots


The very best is Heathersue on Etsy. I think everyone on this board will agree.

:thumbsup2 ITA and she has alot of "Dizney" items
 
Thanks for all the comments and Pixie dust...

I guess I should have added that my hubby is a deputy, and knows the school well. Our youngest two are biracial...and let's just say the middle school is not as racially diverse as the elementary school. DD has already been the target of racial bullying...started in the 3rd grade. She is really not looking forward to going there next year.

We did homeschool her for 2 years. It was really hard and both of us. we both have very STRONG personalities, and get on each other's nerves rather easily! To home school again will be hard on the whole family, and we know that. Just right now, we can't see a different option.

For her to even consider it again shows how strongly she feels about this school.



Nini
 
Here she is! I still haven't decided on the spelling of her name. When I went to the vet's to have her checked, I had the receptionist spell it Pippi but when the vet came in he wrote Pipi. I'd rather it be the way most would spell it when they hear the name.

IMG_2994.jpg

IMG_2992.jpg


She really wants to get outside. She has made it out about 2 feet before I grabbed her. She is so fast and escapes when I put my hand out the sliding door to throw out a diaper. I have tried using the children as a blocker to stop her from getting out the door, but the children just let her past without trying to touch her. I have now resorted to putting her in the bathroom when I need to open the sliding door. She also loves to hide in the triple stroller when I am getting ready to take the children outside.

I have to say the Pippi is very beautiful. I had a cat years ago, that used to like to sit in the small window next to the front door of our neighbors house and watch thier dog go crazy barking and running back and forth. After awhile, she'd give up and come home. A few times when they had thier front door open, she went in to take a look around and then left. And yet another time, the neighbor on the other side of us, got half way to work and noticed her sleeping in the back seat of his car. So he turned around and brought her home. lol!! I think it must have a little cold out and he left his door open a bit too long.

This is not Disney related, or even sewing related...but it is family related, and we ARE trying to move the thread along...right?

Nini, do you have charter schools? Kirsta goes to one and loves it. Except that she has to wear a uniform everyday. (not all are like that around here). They each specialize in something. The one Kirsta goes to, has teachers from Greece and she is learning Greek. Which should help her with her SATs when the time comes (we hope) , but it's primarily a math school. We also have a charter school that is the arts. My friends daughter just tried out for it by singing. You have to keep your grades up to go there. And there are others. Do you have a Choice program? My nephew did this, so he could go outside his school district. I don't know how my sister signed him up for it. I know he can't miss as many days as the other kids or he'd be moved out of the school. He ended up interviewing for a charter school that is science based. He loves it. They go outside and set off rockets.
 
Actually you don't need to by a new ironing board (unless you want a new one:lmao:) because they sell nice hangers that fit over the door at Bed Bath and Beyond in the laundry area. That is what I have to do with mine since my laundry area is small.

But that would be too much work taking it on and off -- I think one that would just flip down would be easier. I love having my ironing board set up all the time. I have to figure something out!

And why aren't we moving. I know I am going to miss the move as it's almost time to take the kids to gymnastics. Techinically, since I have posted on pages 246 and 247 it's as if I posted on pages one and two of the move ;)
 
thanks all for the nice comments. Going to attempt shorts next fot my little boy. I'm not really sue what to make for my little boy he will be 20 months when we go to disney. I know he's not bothered but feel a bit mean not doing anything for him when my daughter has lots of outfits. any ideas appreciated. he won't wear anything too fancy as he hates me putting anything on him including his coat and shoes :rolleyes1
I have been sewing for DS since we started to go to Disney at age 3. I have always just gone with the bowling shirt, which has 100 different ways to create a look, and then shorts, or board shorts. I also add fabric at the bottom of the shorts or on the sides, or make pockets that have some of the bowling shirt fabric. I will have to go and find pictures. It is not as easy as girls but I still have fun. You will have fun making things all matchy matchy.

Ok...I have to leave work now and I have an hour + drive home...don't leave me behind.

We are almost there but waiting for you. Thanks everyone.
 
The pirate fabric came in and of course it is not what I wanted but I have no choice but to use it.

I am also taking pictures so I can post a photo tutorial of how I make a bowling shirt from a commercial pattern.
