Your daughter looks adorable in this!!! I love the way you put the bow on the back of the second one.
I made the same dress for AKsunshine's daughter. She has some pictures of her daughter in it in her TR.
I did change the top though, because I didn't like how low it was. I just made the neckline a bit higher. I plan on making Lydia one one of these days!
Here is Lydia modeling the one I made for Isabelle. She wouldn't put a petti on under it, and I didn't feel like arguing with her about it!
The Carson shirt and Kyla dress. Other pattern makers that I love are Sewsensible and Nanoo designs. I think I am more partial to the latter two because they are from Louisiana like me.I was thinking about purchasing the pillowcase type dress pattern today. Which one have you made. I love how professional they look.
Many thanks! And great job on your Cindy gown. I'm always surprised at just how low cut they make some of thos patterns. I raise most of them a bit, but I don't think I did on this one.
Do you agree it's one of the more demanding patterns out there??? I also included the horsehair braid around the bottom of the skirt. I think when I was done I had over $80 in supplies in that one....
It's ok, I just wanted you to know you weren't forgotten LOL.Thank you so much! Sorry I missed your post, I just assumed people were missing mine! LOL! That's what I thought.
Trust me, if there is some way to avoid user error (cause I make a lot of user errors) I'll find it.That is a great idea. Especially trying to center the design. That is one of those things that makes a light bulb go on and you just kind of have to hit your forhead and say " Why have I not been doing it that way"
Thanks
You're gonna be fine! Can't wait to see it!Send me some prayers and pixie dust....I just cut out the pattern pieces for Michael's Prince Charming Costume for Akershus.....this should be VERY interesting!
These are wonderful!!!!!!!!!! You're so sweet to do this!I am doing a mini give for a fellow disser. Here are the outfits I made the little one in her

I'm waiting for some chiffon to come in so I can make a petti--then it is off in the mail!
quite a few of us have ordered from banberry place.com, but you can do a google search or look on Etsy as well.I'm loving the sew along. This might push me over the edge into buying the pattern...if I can figure out where to buy it. I'm almost positive someone listed a source once, but now I can't find it.
I just wanted to say what beautiful work you all do. I want so badly to sew. I have a machine, I can sew straight lines, and that is about it. I wish I could do the wonderful creations that you do. Thank you so much for sharing all your hard work.
AwwwwwwwThanks Teresa! Here is Isabelle in the Cindy dress. She has talked about wearing it this year. We didn't get any Princess meals, we'll see!
Emily wants to be a vampire too! (I think it has something to do with wearing the plastic teeth!) I think I'm going to go with a peasant top and a corset then a skirt where it gathers up one side so it shows the under skirt - make sense? She also wants a cape.

Okay Queen Karen!I'm about to take the plunge...my parents are paying for half of the cricut that is on sale at Joann's and I got a coupon for free shipping...I'm so cheap I have had to really justify this to myself over and over again! But I know I'm gonna love it! I just spent the last week buying new clothes for everyone in the family but me for school and work. Since I never go anywhere mine last longer...so I guess this will make up for it!
I'm so excited! I should have it by my birthday...I may have to make myself a card!
Bling Converse.
This is my first attempt at these. They are far from perfect, but not bad for a first try. I forgot how thick the glue was and it got too thick in spots and there are too many gaps. I think I'm going to use smaller rhinestones next time. Emily has requested these in multiple colors! I made these to go with a Nightmare before Christmas set I'm working on, I'm going to add ribbons as the laces.

Karen- Other than Grinch, NBC fabric is one of the toughest to find and most expensice. I am 99% sure that almost all the "fabrics" are actually sheet sets. About two years ago I bought a sheet set with three other ladies. We ended up spending about $25 each and got plenty of fabric.
Ohhh I love all your creations...maybe you should just make a test version in Taylor's size to make sure Emily will like it......HAHAHAHAHAHA. JUST KIDDING!!! Do you have an example of the type of skirt you are talking about??? Is it a CarlaC?? Taylor has to have a cape and fake teeth too!!! How old is Emily?? Taylor is 5.
Got it... responded... took care of everything... and set you a pm as well!
Sneakers turned out cute! Did you use crystals or skittles? PLEASE let us see the outfit you're sewing when you're done- you always do such great stuff!
More importantly..... Do you, or anyone here, know where I can buy Nightmare Before Christmas fabric?? I have been looking for a month and can't find it in stores or online. WaaaaaaaaaH~~~~
Hmmmm... I even looked for sheet sets and there wasn't much at all! Please..... I need pixie dust.... PLEASE let there be another source! If not, then maybe someone here would llike to go in on a sheet set too??
I hadn't thought of the Grinch! Henry would look so cute in that next year when we take our Thanksgiving trip! I found some really darling Rudolph fabric a couple weeks ago, but not the Grinch.... Now you've sent me out looking for more! My DH ought to love you!!
