That's the pattern I used for Parker's Barbie Island Princess dress too. I thought the pattern was very easy to follow as well.
BTW, Tessa's dress is gorgeous and you did an amazing job on it as well as all the applique's.
Just out of curiosity, how long did it take you to complete the dress?
I really don't know! I started cutting it out a long time ago. I didn't get to work on it very often and I had a lot or projects going at once for a while. I'm no help here at all. I just don't have a clue how many hours I have into it.
Oh heather I did get some Of my list finished last night. And i got the none slip slipper grip at joanns you can byuy it bty and it's behind the cutting counter with the fusiable webbing and other head bond iteams. I don't know why you have to sew it on. Just ask for it and if they don't have any I have about hald a yard left I could send you.
Yay on getting some stuff finished! I went to bed after I PMed you last night. It was a good thing I did because both of the kids decided to get up earlier than usual.
I'll look for that non-slip stuff the next time I'm at Joann's. I don't have the fabric for his jammies yet, I'm just thinking I should make him something next.
This is just absolutely adorable! I'm so jealous!! I want one-
Thank you!! Hey, did you get a new avatar and siggy pic? If so, YAY!!
Congrats on the tag TJ! but it seems to me that we could have some serious sibling rivalry now that you have a tag and your sweet, loving, dedicated sister does not! So.......
Now Heather needs a tag!!!
Hmmmmmm........... I'll bet we can come up with some good ones for her- can't we ladies?
The Challenge is: if YOU were the tag fairy..... what tag would you give Heather???
I'm not sure I like this....
OOOH OOOH OOOH OOH!!!! I HAVE ONE I HAVE ONE!!!!!!!
Once got her behind stuck in the toilet!
That was so funny!
Yep, I KNEW I wouldn't like this!
How about this tag for Heather....
Original designer of the successfully popular "Cinderella surprised, yet suspicious" look clothing
I just about died laughing when I read that!
LOL!!! I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did! I gave myself the giggles.
But even though the line was short and there was noone else behind us they would NOT let Lily in.
Glad you're having fun!! But, what kind of mother are you to take your little girl to MK and not make sure she meets Mickey!
I guess when you get all famous, those kind of things just don't seem so important.
I admit, I stole the "concept". Teresa said the pumpkin fabric would make a cute Cinderella outfit. So, I took her idea. However, if Teresa spent less time planning and more time sewing, maybe we could all copy her more often!
Just started my xmas outfits! WOO HOOO! anywho, first one is done, just have to get the right size bottons for mr. snowman!
That's just so cute! It makes me look forward to Christmas, even if I'm spending it with the in-laws.
"Thanks for my pretty dress mom, I love it!! You're the best, mom!!" That's why I sew!!
Oh, that's so incredibly sweet! I love the fabric you used for this outfit.
My fingers are starting to cramp! AND it makes it really hard to type!
You just said that to make me laugh, didn't you?
WOW Heather this is BEAUTIFUL, just like your daughter!!! You did an outstanding job!!! It was definitely worth the wait......your dear sister just kept teasing us!!!
Thank you so much! I can never hear enough people say my kids are cute!!
I have the brother and love it!
I sew for all of the above reasons too. But I just made my sewing corner in my bedroom (behind closed doors, I'm a sewing sLoB!) where I have a daycare child napping. Thus, I can't sew till after "work".
I just want to do winter dresses (for Norah and me), hoodies, and sleep pants for the whole family. BUT, I
REALLY want to collect fabric to do a Disney Eye-Spy quilt! We should do an exchange of some kind to share our scraps
Heyyyy, there's a great idea!
I vote Heather and Theresa can be in charge of that...
I have access to some cheap Bambi fabric
Hey now, what's with the quotes around work?! I worked in my mom's day care for quite a while and I can tell you that it's WORK! Actually, it's more like
WORK You give yourself the credit you deserve!
As for the fabric exchange, I vote that Deann (tnmom25) be in charge of it. Yeah, that sounds good! Actually, it sounds like a neat idea. How would we go about doing this?
