All signed up! I kept waiting for you all to post this morning and then dd took over the computer!

After breaking my LONG standing rule to never sew for Barbie, all I can say is I will NEVER again complain about sewing for the AG.

I was thinking the same thing when I made my first AG doll outfits. My grandma used to hand sew us tons of Barbie clothes when I was a child. She was in a nursing home so it gave her something to do.

Just popping in with an update on my FIL...

Since last update, he has gone home from the nursing home. He was not getting the care he needed there so his wife set up a hospital bed at home and had a home nurse come in. He has still been not doing well. This weekend he told his wife he will not got back to the hospital and signed a DNR. So, today he has been referred to Hospice. We are waiting for his evaluation from Hospice today to see what we need to do. Most likely DH will travel to Ohio tomorrow alone and come back Thursday so he can spend some time with his dad. Just say some prayers is all I ask. These are difficult days.

HELLO LADIES!!! I am SO excited...I catucally sewed a skirt had to redo the hem just once. WHAT A DIFFERENCE WITH A SERGER!!!!!!

 

[teresajoy]

Aww man! Still a trip to Florida right? Am I understanding correctly. We're actually swinging by Disney for just 2 quick nights on the way to Tampa to visit my G'ma. I manage to sneak little trips in everywhere!


Thanks! We're only going to be in DW from mid May 14 - morning May 16th, so there wasn't too much to sew and a decent amount of time to do it in, so I was able to make something for myself - plus this pattern goes together really quickly!! And that's coming from me who takes forever to even make a simply sweet! Of course for this short trip I am making my daughter 4 customs, me 1 shirt, my dad one shirt, and I hope to make a rosetta back and a boxy bag!!! Only 3 things left!

Yes, we will still be in Florida. We have a timeshare that is close to Animal Kingdom. Maybe we could meet up at DTD one of your days? I'll PM yah.

Mine looks just like that. Except I don't have that furniture, the nice table, the chair, the color organization, the wall storage, etc. But like Teresa, I do have scraps of fabric, tons of pieces of threads and even kitty litter bits on the floor. I also currently have bits of tracing paper all about.

Someday mabye I'll have a sewing room! Brian keeps saying that he would like to eat at the dining room table again, you'd think he'd take the hint and build me a sewing room!

I LOVE to do ITH!!! .

Do you have any in particular that you like? I made my Mom an ITH eyeglass case the other day, but I forgot to take a picture!

I'm hoping my favorite digitizer (heathersue, my little sister) will make some more ITH designs soon. I even offered to write up the directions for them if she does!

My first attempt at a multiquote...



ETA and I was successful at a multiquote

YAY!!!!!

Okay, doing my part to cheer up the American (and Canadian) sewers of the world. I made this over a year ago primarily to see how crayon rolls are put together. NOT like this one apparently. I couldn't even talk any of my broken crayons into sitting in it long enough for a photo.

Don't know how well the photo will show up, but I thought it would be good for ruffles.

Thanks for sharing!!!!
I like the hidden Mickeys!!!

5/11 to 5/18. Can't wait! Work has been insane so this is a much needed trip. I'm going with 2 friends to celebrate a big birthday. One friend has a work obligation so we can't go on my actual bday. You know I haven't tried to buy coffee syrup in a while but I'm sure I can find it and if I can't find it near me my sister lives less than 30 minutes from the RI border. Would be great to see you again!


I probably will be. I'm sure your DD is a lot bigger than when I saw you in Epcot before. Was that Dec 09? Seems like a lifetime ago now. That weekend is some special Cars 2 celebration but I haven't heard what they are actually doing.

I hope we get a chance to meet up!

Does anyone know which is older--Anastasia or Drizella? Trying to figure out which one to make for which kid.

ETA: found it! I've been searching forever & didn't find it until AFTER posting here, of course! It's Drizella.

I had assumed Drizella was older, but I'm not sure why! I'm glad you checked!

I hate to admit it, but I have had the Audrey Ruffle Skirt pattern for probably 4.5 months and just used it for the first time today. The Gymboree near my house had a huge mega clearance sale and I got my DD the kitty tee for $2, I thought it would look cute with a kitty print skirt... and since I now know how to use my serger I was able to do the rolled hem on the ruffles. I am in love so much easier than pressing small hems or praying the narrow hem foot doesn't stitch weird. Anyways... picture overload, but I am proud!

This is ADORABLE!!!! I love that vintagey fabric and your daughter is adorable!

This is just lovely. I am scared to try this along with my serger. I actually need to find time to just get to work with it.

I can finally post this out fit I did for Hannah's Give. this is for Abigail and I combined a bunch of different tutorials with different things I liked

Very cute!

Got some clothes done for my little cousins. They had birthdays last month, so these are late B-Day presents from me.

For Amber:

Winnie the Pooh Insa and Brooklyn Tank Top.
HeatherSue embroidery and the I made the Insa a skort instead of having a double skirt.

And I also made her a Piglet T-Shirt.
Raglan by CarlaC and Piglet from HeatherSue

For her little brother Riley:

Thomas the tank Engine Easy fits and T-Shirt

Lightning McQueen Bowling Shirt

I love these!!! I really love the Insa.

Pictures!

Hi girls - I've been lurking not really sewing lately. Trying to do curtains for our camper we bought. The ones that were in there were kinda of yucky color and very faded.

I do have one question, my DD5 has a bitty baby, I know many of you make clothes for the AG bigger doll, do you know of any sites that have clothes for the bitty baby?

Most of Carla's patterns come with the doll versions in both 15 and 18" sizes. The few things I have made have fit both, just longer on the bitty (elastic or velcro waisted so worked well for both).

wanted to make something cute for a friend but her fav character is DONALD...I CAN"T FIND DONALD!!!! ARRGGGHHHH HAs anyone seen any fabric with him???

I honestly cannot recall ever seeing any Donald fabric. Hopefully someone has!

 

[tmh0206]

goodness you all have been very busy! I took a couple of days away from the computer and missed almost 20 pages!

just a couple of things I have been working on over the weekend:

for January's give:

and for DGD3 (these are my absolutely favorite so far!)

thanks for looking!

QUESTION

I am sewing a pair of shorts from DS baketball ones kinda like the easy fit.....Can I do front and back from the same pattern that I traced or is there a difference?

 

[teresajoy]

I just want you all to know you have inspired me. This was my 2nd ever sewing piece. It's not Disney but I am making a Mickey/Minnie inspired one for MK and a top for Epcot as well. I don't have an embroidering machine so nothing like that yet

Just wanted to say Thank you for your INSPIRATION!!!

This is adorable!!!

I made this skirt for dd for Valentine's Day ~ but it's mainly kitties with some hearts so she wears it all the time. I took photos when I made it but she had on a shirt that was way too big and it made the skirt look awful. It looks much better with this shirt:

I still want to applique a t-shirt with a cut out of the kitty fabric, but not at the top of my priority list right now.

And I made this rag bed for my dog's crate. Didn't pad it nearly enough so I now use it as a throw over their crate bed and it's so thin they just dig in it and scrunch it up. I'm really mad I did not make it thicker

Thanks for looking!

I love that skirt. Your daughter is so pretty!!!

The rag bed is cute!

Ok, let's see - I've sewn some things in the last few days.

I love the countdown!

Yeah. I'm excited about the Grinch fabric. Some of it looks really cute. It's due the middle of next month, but it is hard to think about Christmas in May.

So, here are a few things I made for the girls' tutors and the students in my class from our co-op.

For the adults...... I had asked is anyone had a pattern. I ended up just winging it.

These are wonderful!

OT: Please pray for the victims for storms in my state -- Arkansas. We had very minor damage - a tree came down in our back yard and hit our neighbor's house. Minor damage to our fence and their gutter pipe. We can clean it up in a day or two be back to normal.

But 3 children were killed last night in our state due to trees falling on their houses. They found a mom holding her 7 year old son in her arms dead from a tree this afternoon - he called her in his room due to being scared so she went to comfort him. Her 18 month old daughter was fine. So so heartbreaking! That happened about just 6 miles from our home. An 18 month old and her dad who she was sleeping with both died and a 6 year died in his home. This just breaks my heart. It puts our lost tree, broken fence and damaged gutter in perspective.

And happier news -- another doll dress for a birthday party.

That is so terribly sad.



The dress is adorable.

I haven't posted for awhile, but I finally finished Disney outfits for our trip to DW in a few weeks and thought I'd share.

I got the idea for this outfit from someone on here (it was a skirt and t-shirt), but my DD insisted on only dresses.

For 1900 Park Fare (DD went as Drizella last year and wanted to be Anastasia this time!)

It's nice to see you posting again!!! These outfits are all amazing! I love the Anastasia!

I finished Jasmine's skirt last night. It's a smidgin tighter and shorter than I wanted it, but I think I am going to leave it that way. I hope to post pictures by the end of the day.

D~

I love this!

Both outfits are just AMAZING!!!!!!!! Love them!!!!



They sound adorable - lots of ideas already mentioned - I did a round neck top a few times with pillow panels and they came out nice,,,

Seeing pictures of you with those kids just makes me smile!

We just decided to try netflix for free for the month. Does anyone else do this and, if you do, do you cancel your other cable movie channels?

We have this and LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! We don't get any movie channels, and we have plenty to watch.

Mainly supplies and fat quarters and unwashed fabric:

And that is the hole I sew in! Not pretty, but I manage. And I did sweep the floor for the photos.

I love seeing your pictures!!!!! Your kitty is so pretty!

The mermaid outfit turned out great!

So ladies, I am hopping onto your thread. I havent posted on it before and wanted to share something I made for my youngest DD. She is 4 and loves Handy Manny and is soooo excited to meet him in September at H&V.

We had a Handy Manny b-day party when she was three, the cake lady was a tad confused when I gave her a girls name to write on the cake.

Anyway, there are ZERO girly outfits out there for girl Manny fans, so I had to take matters into my own hands and get creative.

I chopped off a pair of jeans and turned them into ruffly capris in primary Manny colors and then using my Cricut, MTC software, paint and freezer paper I made her t-shirt. That was tedious but worth the effort.

She will be the first to tell you that the nose is a little off, but that reminded her of Flynn Rider's nose problems in Tangled, so it worked out okay

Thanks so letting me share.

Your daughter is a cutie!!!! The outfit turned out great!

I am very happy to introduce my seventh and final princess, Jasmine.

D~

This turned out really nice.

I love them all!!!! Love that toy story ribbon!! my walmart started to carry a few little bundles of disney ribbon - its really cute!!!!

Thanks for helping with Trace's Big Give Guys!!!! Its starting to fill up!!! We could really use some tshirts and the girls and Tonya would really love Rosetta bags. Come on over and meet our main man!!!!

 

[DMGeurts]

D~ (Dorine) was looking for the fabric for a BG -- I know she only needs a small amount so you may want to PM her.

Thanks for thinking of me. A diser did contact me, and i think i am getting enough from her.... Rubberduckyranch agreed to be my back up... I am just worried that i won't have enough time to finish before the ship date... Thanks everyone for helping me find this fabric!

D~

 

[teresajoy]

I didn't mean to usurp ellenbenny's directions, my hope is that seeing it two different ways will help.

Thank you! These are great directions too! Thanks for allowing us to post them on the Big Give board too!

And, anyone making these, I would love it if you posted to the BG thread too. We are trying to keep a running total to see what we can do!

Wow have you guys been busy....Are we trying to hit the 250 mark by the weekends end? I havent been on for a couple of days and I cant keep up with all the postings!
Love the Disney clothing, Hanny Manny, cute chick and everything that has been posted
Sewing room AMAZING...would love to have a dedicated space...even part of a space instead of our dining room which is in our living room
Jasmine doll outfit...insanely cute!!

This is all I have accomplished this week First time ever making pleats.

I love the name of your picture.

This turned out really cute!!! I can tell your daughter loves it too!

I had such a good day at Walmart and their fabric department that Chase had to call us and make sure it was us making the purchase! I thought it was a bit odd because I tend to charge that much but guess it has been a while since it was *that* much. Stupid walmarts without fabric departments! And YIKES to the price!!! $5.47 for just regular fabric!!!!

But I am happy they seem to have restocked. It was not fun tryin to find what I needed in their squished little area but all was well. And thanks to the electronics guy doing a GREAT job cutting my fabric!

Love the princess AG doll outfits! I did a mini simply sweet to match a big kid one with an applique and all. It took just as long! The only different was that I used less fabric! I decided it was my first and LAST one!

LOVE the jesse outfit!

I had to chuckle that Chase flagged your account for a fabric shopping spree!

Do you care if I copy and paste this over to the Big Give board so it is in the pillow case thread over there (if that's OK with Teresa)?

I don't mind at all!!!!
I would love it if Ellen posted hers there too.

I have been away for a few days since I had a rough week.

I hope that everything is ok.

Carla's (Scientific Seamstress) patterns have the Bitty Baby size patterns,you can get them on You Can Make This. com

Okey dokey the time has come!! This kiddo is our very own Tonya (tonyababyrn)'s son Trace - he had a cancerous tumor last year, and is now cancer free so they are celebrating!!!! Trace is a sweet heart who LOVES star wars and animals the best!!! He has 2 big sisters too!! This give is Tshirts (mainly for Trace) and some bags and pixie dust stuff since he is a big kiddo.

Hi! I live in Ontario, Canada, and I've been lurking for a LONG time!
I love looking at all the creations! You are all so talented, and I get lots of inspiration.
I am a beginner/novice sewer, but have learned a lot from YCMT patterns! I am a SAHM with 2 girls and 1 boy.
Will add more in next post, so I can get to add photos!

We went for our first trip with Grandparents in 2006, then returned in 2007 and again in 2009 for free dining each time! It's all about the food! As a Mom with 3 young(ish) kids, I love being able to eat at a sit-down restaurant and order what I want to eat!

 

[T-rox]

I had planned on making something that takes the embroidery machine...but since Bubba is going to the 'doctor' today for about 3 weeks, I have to come up with alternative plans. I am getting the Notebook slipcover from YCNT and doing something with this.

(I know...I know...I could probably figure this out without the pattern, but it is only $6.00 and I figure it would save me the time of trying to figure out the measurements...of course her directions are not a sgood as Carla C's...but not too hard to figure out!~)


Nini

i've just spent the last 11 pages wondering about bubba. wondering what his problem was. my 770 went to the shop this am too. since i am headed to disney next week, they have 2 weeks to look at it. in case i cannot keep up with this fast moving thread i may pm you when i get back to see the solution for your bubba.

 

[Savy]

Just wanted to say the work you ladies do is amazing!! I recently got me a pattern and some fabric to make a simple pillowcase dress.. Maybe one of these days I will figure out what to do with it all and then I can join in on the fun here!

 

[tricia]

HELLO LADIES!!! I am SO excited...I catucally sewed a skirt had to redo the hem just once. WHAT A DIFFERENCE WITH A SERGER!!!!!!

Welcome! Where in Ontario? I'm from the North, Timmins.

We went for our first trip with Grandparents in 2006, then returned in 2007 and again in 2009 for free dining each time! It's all about the food! As a Mom with 3 young(ish) kids, I love being able to eat at a sit-down restaurant and order what I want to eat!

I soooo agree with you. I have to do a sit down meal at least once a day on vacation or it does not feel like a holiday to me.

 

[NiniMorris]

First...Ipromise to post pictures of the finished project...

Since I don't have an embroidery machine, I had to find SOMETHING to do. After reading the blog of the sewing room last week, I got inspired. My sewing table is a 4 x 8 sheet of 'chipboard on top of an old sewing table and a bookcase. It has enough room to hold the embroidery machine, my thread racks, a big basket of scrap fabric and my daughter's sewing machine. (My sewing machine is on top of a big old desk placed at a right angle to this one.)

I saw in that blog about how she used modge podge to put fabric on tables...so I took all my black, black, and yellow scraps...and I am attaching it to the top of my plain old boring piece of lumber. Sort of a crazy quilt look. So far I really like the look...but after 2 hours I only have about a fourth of it done.

Then I used some boxes I had and covered them in scraps of Minnie Dot...can you guess what the decorating theme is going to be in there?


LOL
