Wow, what a beautiful dress and a very cute Snow White. I know she will have LOTS of attention at Askerhaus.I thought this might be a good place to share. My DD3 wanted to be Snow White for Halloween. DW is really good friends with a seamstress who offered to do costumes for us whenever we wanted. When we decided we were going to WDW, we thought maybe we would let DD wear the costume to the Akershus Princess breakfast. When DW's friend found that out, she kinda went all out on it....
That picture made the front page of the local newspaper (of course, it probably helped that the paper's head photographer that took the picture is the seamstress's husband.). I think she's going to be a hit at the park.
As long as no one looks directly at her in the sunlight.

Either way sounds good. you could also do the names on a separate piece of fabric and then sew it to the bag - like a patch.
Can't decide which one I liked the best. I think the Jasmine outfit is so pretty and I love the Mickey one too. How sweet that you got the gift bag. I'm glad you had a great time.Do you know, they don't make a pill for procrastination? They should!!
Anyway, just getting around to getting my pictures off my camera, from June. See what I mean about needing a pill?
I thought I'd share this. Kirsta loved it. We got it from our travel agent when we checked into CB. There was a mix up with our ressies. I wanted the Pirate room, and was quoted a regular room. I just couldn't swing it, if we wanted to eat. I had called Disney travel for some info, and told her about the mix up, and my Mom just passing away. They had a HUGE tote filled with snacks and fruit waiting for us also.
What a great idea. Those metal strollers can get cold, brrrr.
Love the PJs. That sounds like the perfect thing to put on after a long day at the waterpark. Looks like they were worn out. The sleeping on the table picture is hilarious. And that dog is HUGE. You guys are the perfect aunt and uncle.Callie - thank you so much for jumping in on this!!! They will be thrilled with their new blankies!! So special, thank you!!! Yay for your 1st big give!!!
We had a fun weekend with the neices and nephew! We did an indoor playground yesterday, and then indoor water park today - I AM TIRED!!! lol
I did make them some new pj's to change into after the water park today - then we all wented to go to Cracker Barrel - sooooo, they wore them into Cracker Barrel!!!oh well, the kids coulda cared less!!! At least they were clean, right?????? haha
So we got home and they started dropping like flies - lol - dont you love the Great Dane, Genevieve, sitting on my lap after the kids went down!!! lol. Hannah had been drifting off on my lap, sat up with her eyes closed and just laid down on the table!!! haha - then Tim lost it too!!!! Eliz was still awake, but fading fast!!!
Been very busy here!! I just mailed out my first Big Give item (not sure if it's ok to share a picture here yet?) And, I've been working feverishly on dresses for my girls for our trip - we leave 3 weeks from tomorrow!!
I had fun today trying out my Mom's embroidery machine (it's at least 10 years old, so no usb functions on it & half her embroidery cards aren't working right.) But, I made 2 cute snowmen to use on the tops of some dresses for the girls for Christmas. So, now I want an embroidery machine more than ever for Christmas! LOL I'm strongly considering the SE-400 from Wal-mart - it's on sale for $369 & has a $30 mail in rebate thru the end of the year. I've also been looking at the PE-770, LB6800PRW, and the ones on HSN, although I'm not sure which model they are featuring there. I really think I'd prefer a machine that both sews & embroiders & I think I'd be ok with the 4x4 hoop only since I'm mostly making little clothes, LOL I know I've seen some of you talk about needing the Brother PED basic software package for $100 to download designs from online - can anyone tell me - is this going to be the case with all of the Brother embroidery machines? Or, only the lower models? Just wondering if a more expensive machine has this built in already, or if they will all need this. I'd really love any advice or input I could get from you talented ladies!!
My first hand applique on a dress - I'm now also working on Donald Duck & Handy Manny...

Anita--you did so much beautiful stuff for your craft fair! I wish we could get some good ones like that here in Austin. There was a pretty good one Halloween weekend, and I think I may have met a Dis-er
Does anyone know where I can get Lightning McQueen buttons? My mom and I made a Lightning McQueen jacket and pants set for my 3 yo DS to wear in Disney, but it would look super cute if I could find Lightning buttons for it.
I spent a lot of time this weekend playing with my Mom's embroidery machine and I am totally hooked. Too bad it's not in the budget right now, I'll just have to keep using hers for a while. Luckily she only lives about 10 minutes away.

Here are toiletry bags I made for Michael's Big Give (for mom and Dad).
This Friday is the inspection. Hoping all goes well. We met the owner and he is really nice. We will close in early Janurary...after Christmas but before Disney. We won't move in tell after Disney trip. That gives us time to paint the rooms and replace any flooring we want to...better to do all that in an empty house!

I am excited about it too! I know I have already told you but I love their pjsCallie - thank you so much for jumping in on this!!! They will be thrilled with their new blankies!! So special, thank you!!! Yay for your 1st big give!!!
I like the (and only) part lol. I finished both tonight I worked a little today. It honestly was not as bad as I thought it would be ... I hate ruffles a lot more lol. Probably a good thing since I have 4 boys!
Ya I should have sewed the bigger size. I looked at the measurements and thought it was bigger than it was.
We will be doing 3/4s next time! Trying to do my part to help us get to page 250. . . .

I really like that!I can't post on FB because DD is a friend but here is her quilt for Christmas. She loves JS and also primary colours. It looks more like a boy quilt but it what she wants. I haven't finished yet, this is just the quilt top but I plan to do the back with JS fabric and then tie the quilt rather than stitch. As you can see it is the double nine patch.
This is such a pretty Vida!Sorry...I missed this post earlier. I have been gone/busy most of the weekend and haven't been on the boards...Here is the dress I made for AK for Christmas
The cuteness you guys are going to talk me into getting an embroidery machine before it is all said and done!I love how we all get chatty right before the 250th page!

Congrats again on the house! I bet you are super excited!Went to my happy place today! Hobby Lobby and AC moore! I don't live near either, so the girls and I took a trip to Fredericksburg for the day! It is probably good I don't live any closer! Got fabric to make MIL's top for Christmas and some really pretty place mats and kitchen stuff for Christmas.
We have a contract on a house!
I am running out of time to get things done! Have not even started making customs for our trip. Need to work on Christmas cards and presents first! I love the season but not ready for all the craziness that comes with it!
We are moving this summer and I already cannot wait I think would be going nuts ready to move if I had already picked the house! Here's hoping there are no surprises!
I love them!Trying to do my part to help us get to page 250. . . .
