that # I think is wrong no outfit listed under it
Okay, major stress. My new sewing machine is messed up. I think the timing is off. I just got it for Christmas (from Costco) so I took it back, but they don't carry it in the store anymore so I had to order a new one online (and pay $30 more dollars for it) so much for sewing this weekend! I may just have to undo my ruffler contraption (now that I think I finally got it optimized) and get to work on this baby:
This machine never breaks and is very fast and smooth. I just cant do much more than a straight stitch on it because the contraptions that go along with this thing make a ruffler foot look dainty!
Here is the latest thing I have made Lily. It is a sundress for summer, but she INSISTS on wearing it every day. I do need to move the (purely decorative) buttons higher though.

Teresa- SOS!!!! I'm trying to access the tutorial to do decoupage jeans on "the bookmarked links of bliss" and it won't allow me in! Don't they know who I am? J/K!!!! It has the DIS boards official access denied post! ARGH!

Cute outfit on Lily!!!! Dang that girl is sweet!
OK, I 'm betting that Singger doesn't make that obnoxious POUNDING sound when it goes through more than 2 layers like my brother (from Costco too)

I know what you all mean about "normal" clothes not cute enough either!
That is the whole reason that I do this!
Once they get out of the "toddler" area in the dept. stores, it seems as if the clothing was made for "tweens".
I guess I am "old fashioned", but I still want my little girl to look like a little girl, and not a "hoochie mama!"

This is what I am working on:
It is one of Katies birthday gifts. I am so excited to give it to her. I am using pink tulle, pink chenille, and pink taffeta. I am using a plain table I bought at Michaels with two chairs. The chairs are not as fancy, but it is cute. I hope it turns out half as cute as the one in the picture.
This is freakin' adorable!This is what I am working on:

Wait until she is 10

I can't wait to see the finished product!
I used up the fabric Camelotcats sent to me!
This is what I came up with:
I still have to finish the hem. I decided to use binding (I like the clean look of it) so I have to get to the store now to get it. I also have another one that I am doing for Julia. She will be 11 months when we go, so I am trying to figure out her size.
I'll take action shots later when Zofia feels like trying it on.
I have a ???? for you experts. . .
Is embroidery thread cheaper at Wal-Mart or Jo-Ann's?? Or is it close enough not to worry about it??
Also, can you get Sulky tear-away at Wal-Mart, or is it JUST at Jo-Ann's??
TIA!
Oh mny goodness...what a sweet friend!!! I wanna see pics....pretty please!!! I love monkeys and Dr. Suess has ALWAYS been a favorite. I don't think I have ever seen Dr. Suess fabric through. Please, please, please post pictures!!!!
Awww that is beautiful!
