Belle was OVER THE MOON excited to see a LO dressed like her:

Too short to ride, lol:

Hey all!
Newbie with PE 770 here! So I think I have it set up correctly, threaded correctly, BUT.....

why does the bobbin thread show on the top? I've adjusted the tension via the LCD screen....

Need some guidance... thanks!

Upper thread tension is too tight if bobbin thread shows.

Here's what I get when I go without a list of how much fabric I need for various projects:
4 yards of Mickey Head fabric
1 yard of shirred with non-shirred bottom black & white minnie dot fabric (I bought plain red to add a little cap sleeve to make myself a shirt)
1/4 yd of the Bambi fabric
1/4 yd Cinderella with Castle fabric
1/4 yd Snow White fabric (I'm thinking I'll make myself some princess decoupage jeans)
1/4 yd Minnie Mouse
1 yd of the Mickey Mouse on plaid fabric
1/3 yd of solid red

​

I loved the Winnie the Pooh stuff (lots of bright colored ones that weren't too girly) and so did Finn, but the boys couldn't agree if they wanted pants or shorts or what, so I decided to wait

I love your shopping style! I think your Princesses jeans is a great idea, maybe the Disney Store might have a tee to match the Princesses. I love the Black and White Polka dot shirt, that will look really cute. You bought enough of the Red Mickey Head fabric that you might be able to make a couple of camp shirts, and shir the rest of the fabric and make another shirt for yourself.

I live in Gastonia and go to Mary Jo's all the time! They don't have a ton of Disney fabric though. Another place that I absolutely adore is Sew Much Fun. It is on Franklin (74) in the same plaza as Old Navy, Sports Authority and BAM. They have a lot of Moda and they sell Bernina machines. They have been super helpful every time I have gone in there. TONS of patterns too

I love Mary Jo's for Home Dec Fabric. The ladies that work in that department are awesome. When I take a swatch of fabric (usually from Hancock Fabric) they know exactly who the Manufacturer is and what aisle I can find it in. We drove by "Sew Much Fun" Saturday afternoon. I wanted to stop in and take a look but, it was a long day coming home from a dance competition.

I'm not sure if you've ever shopped at Long Creek Mills. I buy my embroidery thread and supplies there. http://www.longcreekmills.com/

Take care,
Marianne

ATTENTION PEANUT FOLLOWERS!!!!

Mom just updated and Peanut is home again. I know Mom really needs a lot of love and support, so anyone who follows her PTR may want ot buzz over and comment. They leave soon and Peanut's health is still very up in the air.

There are cute new pics too!!!

Thanks that bringing that to our attention. I tend to be hit or miss keeping up with some of the BG families.

On a sad note though, Her husband just received Army orders that he will leave for Korea on May 26 (without her). He is really upset that he will miss most of the pregnancy and most likely the first 8 months of the baby's life. It will be a tough time. If you ever wonder what military life is like...it is called sacrifice!

Glad to be able to share your good news and comiserate with you about the military life!


adi12982 loved all the the outfits you posted -- through December. I especially like the asleep in the stroller one.

PS What's a LO?

NOTE: IF ANYONE DOESN’T WANT A PICTURE UP BECAUSE IT HAS YOUR CHILD IN IT – TELL ME WHICH AND I’LL DELETE IT. I’LL DO THE SAME FOR PICTURES YOU BELIEVE ARE UNFLATTERING. JUST TELL ME AND I’LL TAKE IT DOWN, NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

Ready for the PJ party – calling ahead to announce that we’d be over soon, LOL:

 

[Adi12982]

He was SO SO good with her – if there is ever a breakup with Tessa, Can we arrange a marriage Jeanne? DH would approve, we’d pick the temple, LOL

Spent the weekend with my DD that is pregnant. She had and ultrasound on Friday and found out she is having......A BOY!!!!!In my family, we had 3 girls, my oldest sister had 2 girls, I had 2 girls, my oldest daughter has 2 girls....that's all we have ever had. Can you see why the excitement??? They are very excited. On a sad note though, Her husband just received Army orders that he will leave for Korea on May 26 (without her). He is really upset that he will miss most of the pregnancy and most likely the first 8 months of the baby's life. It will be a tough time.

CONGRATS! How exciting to have a boy to sew for now!
I'll be praying for your son in law, DD, and the entire family...tell him THANK YOU for me! Indeed what a sacrafice.

When I have tension issues it is either the bobbin isn't wound correctly (I wind my own) or I haven't hooped my item correctly.

I have never had to adjust my tension since I started with my machine in February.


I love all the pictures posted.

GREAT pictures Adi -- WTMTQ!!!

Anita: Congrats on the future grandSON! What a surprise for the family. I see loads of Bowling Shirts in your future. Sorry about your SIL going to Korea. As my DH always says, that's why they're called orders.

QUESTION
Where does everyone get their baseball team fabric? I am in need of Yankees and need it soon!
ETA: Gee, I see I can get some on etsy for only $100 per yard!!!
