Applique on felt is awesome!!!

That is all for now.

I wasn't a big fan of the whole Felt thing but I am a convert

 

[ivey_family]

It's time for some because I finally finished all those silly nursing covers!! Woohoo! Did you all hear the shout about 20 minutes ago?

It doesn't look like 60 items, but it really is!

Now I just need to get these suckers sold!!

Finally, I can do some sewing for my family again!

Very cute indeed! I have only appliqued on felt once and I personally don't care for the look. It does make it so you can do an applique on a print, but I still think they don't stand out as well. It was very quick and easy though compared to dealing with excess fabric and worrying about it getting caught under the hoop.

What I was making when hubby "sharpened" my scissors. My helper is one of my cats George.

Wow!!! I admire those of you who have the patience for quilting. It was really nice of you to take the time to make that for George. Just beautiful!

Good luck with the sales! A little hard to tell, but it appears you used some nice, basic fabrics that would appeal to most, so hopefully you'll do well

Oooo too cute!!!

Love the quilt. I don't know if I have the patience for that. It takes strong skill and lots of patience. great job !

Hello all! I have been lurking and thoroughly enjoying this board. I have beginner to intermediate sewing skills. I have big plans this summer to make my son several pairs of Disney themed shorts for his first trip and a matching skirt for myself. I have already created two skirts. Also I am debating buying a pattern for reversible rompers on YCMT. I love jon jons. So hi to everyone!! :goodvibe

So has anyone made a tote type bag or other bag to take to Disney? I would like to attempt one but wasn't sure if there is a good digital pattern out there or a free tutorial on the web. Thanks!

That's very cute! I've only done it once and wasn't crazy about how thick it made the applique on the shirt.

That's beautiful!

C.

Hooray for being done! I hope that you get these all sold very quickly. Then you will have some $$$$ for some fun sewing.

Everything turned out great Beth! I especially love the onesie bikini and the black/white and pink layette gown. You must be getting so excited that the new baby is due so soon!

Hello and welcome to the group!
I've never done a reversible romper but I do love jon jons for little boys. I've done reversible a-line jumpers several times and they always turn out great! Most of us on here use CarlaC's easy fit shorts pattern from YCMT for our shorts. They are super easy to sew. A lot of us have also made Disney themed tote bags. How big a bag were you thinking of making? There are a few options. The Rosetta Bag and the Aivilo tote (not sure I spelled that one right) are very popular patterns and are both on YCMT. The Rosetta bag is ruffly and adorable. The Aivilo tote is plainer but still looks great when it is done. There is also a great messenger style bag pattern from Dog Under My Desk but it is smaller and more purse like. She is not on YCMT. She has her own site. It is called the Two Zip Hipster. Here is a link http://erinerickson.com/store/patterns/. I've made the Rosetta bag and the Two Zip Hipster several times and I really like both patterns.

 

[zuzu310]

Thanks so much!!! Is the CarlaC shorts pattern the same as her Easy Fit pants pattern? I did a search on YCMT this morning and could only find the pants pattern. Yes, I plan on buying her romper pattern and giving it a shot after I have a few shorts under my belt. I will defn check out those tote patterns. I need something slightly bigger because I still carry diapers/wipes and general baby stuff for my toddler. Thanks so much for your help! I will post some pics when I am done.

Yes it is the same pattern, you pick the length. I am a beginning sewer (like just started a few weeks ago) and made a pair of shorts for my DS that came out really nice...I plan to make more!

It was very quick and easy though compared to dealing with excess fabric and worrying about it getting caught under the hoop.

I will embroider/applique on anything, but I just like the way it lays flat and gives a little color outline. It also seems make it easier if your placement goes over a seam line as it did here. I would only use this on cotton prints - not t-shirts.

i finally finished things for my granddaughter Liberty's baby shower and now i can share them here!

Everything for Liberty turned out so cute!

Yes, you just use the easy fit pants to make the shorts. It is a super easy pattern and sews up great! Just make sure you use the hip size to determine what size pants you are going to make as they are a very loose fitting style of pants. The Rosetta tote or the Aivilo tote would probably work for you. The largest size Rosetta bag is a good size. I made 4 of them over the winter to use as beach/pool totes this summer. They would have plenty of room for diapers and wipes. They turn out really cute too. Here is a picture of one that I made last winter:

Here is an shot of the inside of another one of the Rosetta bags:

If you want to make a Disney themed bag a lot of people will use Mickey colors of red, yellow and black.

Ok you sewing specialists..help me plan!!

I'm trying to map out the outfits for each day. This is just for Jon, Tori and Dom. DH doesn't want Disney outfits and I'm sure I won't have time to make anything for me.

So here's what I got (not sure what order we are doing the parks, so this is just day by day)

Day 1: Travel/GKTW. I wanted to do some kind of wish trip/travel something, but no ideas yet.

Day 2: Disney MK: Tori is going in her snow white outfit, Boys in their Princess Protection Agency shirts. Unless I make a better outfit for Tori. But it is going to be hot and I want her to be comfortable and she won't be comfortable in a princess dress I don't think, especially with her port etc.

Day 3: Disney Hollywood Studios/Animal Kingdom....no idea. Maybe Toy Story since they all like that? Isn't Toy Story at Hollywood Studios?

Day 4: Universal Studios. No idea.

Day 5: Universal Studios: No idea.

Day 6: Sea World. I have some cute appliques for this one so I think I'm ok.

Day 7: GKTW/Go home. I'm thinking maybe reusing Tori's biker Mickey outfit and the boys matching Big Bro shirts for the way home?

I also want to make a Christmas outfit for the GKTW party.

And I wanted to do pjs for when the Mayor tucks them in, but now I'm looking at this list and I've got:

18 outfits to make!!!!

Oh my gosh.

Who has some good suggestions, especially for Universal studios?!

I saw that Andrea already mention the whole Seuss thing at IOA, what about Harry potter for another Universal day? Also now that Tori has lost her other front tooth, Maybe for the Christmas party a Christmas shirt that says all I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth and then a matching skirt?

I had this huge reply all typed out all about the great things posted this week and before I could hit post the computer started giving me issues and poof, it was all gone. I know I'll miss a few things but the quilt is amazing, I want to start quilting one these days. Love the new embroidery machine, I am so jealous, some day. Love everything that was made for the baby shower, espesially love the onsie"kini" so cleaver!. As far as the making bags for Disney I have not made one yet for Disney yet but have made several bags. I have not made the rosetta but that is on my list. I have made the Aivilo tote. I do have plans in the next week or two to make a messenger bag that I want to add a little Disney too, I'll post when I'm done.

I had a pretty stressfull week so I did not get much sewing done but I will post the two latest gives I've made. First I made backpacks for Justins give.

Next up, I knew I wasn't going to have the time to do backpacks for Reed's give so I made crayon portfolios for Reed and his sister.

Hopefully I'll have more to post soon. I'm currently working on a skirt that has given me nothing but problems. Was hoping to have it done already but hopefully today or tomorrow. Also working on sashes for the bridesmaid dresses, I only have one more to go and have a two weeks left to get it done. I also hope to get a messenger bag done before I leave for the wedding to carry my camara.

does anyone have a simple tutorial on upcycling a T-shirt. J has a couple Disney Store T's that have holes in the backs where the puppy got him.

I am trying to expand my horizons some by working with knits

Finally got my latest project done. I really need the practice so I did another set like my Rapunzel except Dora for a friends daughter. You would think because I did it before it would be easy but I totally messed up the pants TWICE !! The first pair, I don't know what I did wrong and really messed it so I went out and bought more fabric since these were beyond repair. I cut out my pattern and proceeded to put them together WRONG. I didn't realize it until i had sewn up both leg outsides, I spent most of last night tearing the seams apart and then started sewing it again only to realize that they were right side out and had to rip up the seam on one leg again. I did get it done right and then worked on the ruffles and stays but after clogging my bobbin twice I gave up for the night. One leg down and one to go. I finished them this morning and then got the kerchief done and made flowers on flip flops to match.

Ugh ! I don't know why it was so easy the first time and really wrong the second. Finished product below....

Hopefully the rain stays away tomorrow and I be able to show them off on the little girl who it belongs to.

Now to put my sewing stuff away until Tuesday.

Everything looks great.... when I have a sewing day like that I usually call it quits and move onto something else

Oooo too cute!!!

I bet Tricia must have something since she has made a few.

I bet Tricia must have something since she has made a few.

Tricia was just looking at the request and saying 'Gee, I better get some pics next time I do this. There is always someone looking for guidance.'


So, no, I haven't written up a tutorial yet. But what pattern are you going to use? I can help with any questions.

 

[zuzu310]

Yes, you just use the easy fit pants to make the shorts. It is a super easy pattern and sews up great! Just make sure you use the hip size to determine what size pants you are going to make as they are a very loose fitting style of pants.

That is so cute! I will have to try out the Rosetta bag before September. I did buy the Easy Fit pants pattern and Reversible Romper pattern this morning. Here's hoping I can decipher them. Reading patterns were never my strong point.

I need a little help!
I am trying to make a few shirts for my nephew for his last few days of kindergarten.

First, they are having under the sea day, I was thinking Sebastian or maybe King Triton but I can't seem to find anyone with that design. Does anyone know where I can find them?

Secondly I need something to applique on his shirt for Zoo day, any ideas?


And since I'm asking, where can I find First Grade Rocks, I thought he could wear that for the last day of kindergarten.

Thanks for your help,
Mary

Hi ladies quick question hoping to get your help

I am in the states (from Canada) for another day and super limited Internet. I can check for replies early tomorrow and then we are heading back with a stopat Joann. I want to get the basics for fabric appliqués I am a total newbie and want to try some appliquees (non embroidery) but just need a basic supplies list other than fabric and thread of course just not the time to research myself. So any help for a basic supply list would be appreciated.
