[sugarbees]

AHA Sugarbees, I saw your photos in our bugsnbees photobucket account! They are adorable! I'm putting bracelet photos in there now so you can post them together.

Are those bracelets for my Big Give?

Amazing, of course! THANK YOU, my friend!!!!

 

[jham]

Nothin' fancy, but they match so post pics now. It makes people happy to see big give outfits! And if you don't no one will ever see my bracelets (I'm trying here)

I have only been on the DIS for 2 months now but I am absolutely amazed at the overwhelming generosity and talent of the people on these boards The story of the Winkler family has just devestated me as I am sure it has many of you. The outfits that you are making for Isabelle are absolutely georgeous.

I just want to mention something to those who may be like me and are a little lacking in the creativity department Beth is also putting together a gift basket full of Disney items to be delivered to the room at the Winkler's resort. If anyone would like to contribute please contact Beth or myself and we will tell you where to mail the items.

The members of the DISign board are also contributing and are making an autograph book and a journal to name a couple of things. Someone also had a great idea to donate Disney Dollars.

So if there is anyone else like me who is unable to sew for the BIG GIVE but would like to contribute in some other way, please PM either Beth or myself.

Thank you for helping to sprinkle some Pixie Dust over a family that really could use some.

Have a great evening everyone.

Bonnie

JHAM! You're the best! Thanks for the gorgeous bracelets to match!!!!

The outfits are simple...but they were made with love. I just hope Isabelle and Alicia like them

The flowers are just barrettes...I don't do bows, and couldn't ask Jeanne to make bows AND bracelets! We've been BFF for too long...

Here is something I worked on today.

I just have to hem it and make her a watermelon hair bow and I will be finished. I am trying to decide if I like the white ribbon for ties. I had thought about doing green ties but the girl at Hancock's said she thought it needed white to go along with the white checks. What do you think?

I like it the way it is with the white but I think the green would be fantastic!

So, I totally hopped on board the Big Give and I had a blast making a couple of outfits for Miss Isabelle (STINKING CUTIE!!!)...I'm a bit nervous to post them because they're very simple...and I notice a lot of you are doing these amazing applique's and just incredible/elaborate outfits! Anyway, Miss Cammie said it best and I appreciate and her words! So, while I'm sure my outfits won't get worn on their trip, I'm just hopeful they will make Isabelle and Alicia smile and anticipate their trip a little more...and no matter what, I got to learn a little bit about a super incredible family and be a part of this BIG GIVE! Thanks again, Mousetriper....YOU ROCK!!!

Awww, thank you so much Jen!!! Without all of you guys, my BIG GIVE idea would not be a reality so I must say to all of you.....THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM ON MY HEART!!!

(Oh and where are your pictures Jen.....don't make us wait too long!!!??? I am sure they are beautiful)!!!!

Here are the bracelets I made for Jayden and myself. I think I picked up these ceramic beads at Disneyland last October. For those wondering, they are wherever you see those little make your own bracelet/necklace stands in the gift shops. I bought the cutest nemo, crush and dory beads to make Lily a bracelet to match her nemo dress for Disneyworld and I lost nemo. I actually ran out of time and never made my girls any matching jewelery for that trip

Jayden's: (I was going to do a red mickey head but she wanted the minnie bow)

Mine:

Oh those turned out so dang cute! I love them. You two are gonna have a blast at Disneyland. I can't wait to hear all about your mini trip!!!! (Hopefully you will have as much fun at the wedding)!!!

I was not totally happy with the front bow
then I decided to add black ribbons and now I am not sure which looks better

with or without the black bow?

Linnette

I love it with the black ribbon!

i forgot i had a picture of the quilt. it is a picture of it without the border and being quilted. it is at the quilters getting quilted now

Wow that is awesome!!! I really like how you did that.

I finished this on Sunday,

As you can see she so wanted to model it

Aww what a cutie she is....and the dress too!!

BIG GIVE UPDATE! All I can say is, I've learned a lot! I was up last night really late stitching out a design that is new to me. I wasn't happy with it. SO, I stitched it out again this afternoon and did it this time like a patch. WELL, that sorta worked. I learned a few things there too. Wasn't completely happy with it. SO, I'm stitching it out now for the third time. I'm HOPING that I'll have a pic to post tonight. Fingers crossed.

Awwww...bless your heart! I can NOT wait to see your outfit!!!! You are working on one of my favorite characters!!!

OK gotta fold laundry (never ending) and watch Little People BW/Jon and Kate +8. Its my only tv night/time. Garsh I am exhausted. School wiped me out

I love watching "Little People, Big World" too!!!!!

Here is a one piece I made with some material my mom had. I didn't love the pattern, but it came out cute.

Another pooh dress, because one can't ever have too much pooh! This is CarlaC's simply sweet halter style pattern.

And I saved the best for last! This is my first CarlaC stipwork jumper. We went to the mountains for a few days for vacation and she NEEDED a mountain dress. I also made a matching dress for her doll. She loves it and I love the way it came out!

Thanks for looking!

Those all turned out so cute and your daughter is just adorable!!

AHA Sugarbees, I saw your photos in our bugsnbees photobucket account! They are adorable! I'm putting bracelet photos in there now so you can post them together.

Hey....we wanna see Sugarbees...SHARE SHARE SHARE your pictures!!! (anxiously awaiting....)

I have some pics to share! First, I have my wonderful perm. This pic does not do it justice...I am at the pool, with some goofy smile. I got the perm because of the disboards!

Aww thank you so much Bonnie. That's wonderful that some of the DISign board members are going to help with this BIG GIVE!!! There are soooo many generous and caring people on the DISBOARDS. It just blows my mind how many people truly care. It's just such a wonderful feeling.

THANK YOU ALL!!! (sorry, but I can't say that enough)!!!

[tadamom]

Well.....I got a new machine for my b'day!! I got the Brother SE350!!! I can't wait to get it out tomorrow and check it ou!!!

[lori123]

OH! and Your DD is absolutely ADORABLE!!! Her glasses just make me smile! My DS10 got his first pair at 3, my DD12 at 5 (doesn't need them anymore) and my DS6 got his at 5. I just think glasses are the cutest!

Love the little ones with glasses here too - my DD got hers at 22 months.

We finally have all of the outfits done with 2 days to spare! Sorry for the wet hair, Erin was just out of the bath for the last batch of pics:

 

[mrsmiller]

I am sewing my dress for my son's graduation and I am really not happy with the dress (because is for me I am not that detail conscious) first I think the front is too deep ,maybe a little too revealing??

and the front looks a little to funny (excess of fabric maybe?) so I added a ribbon to cover the "sins"

this is the back but now I think I will change it into a halter style

I am really thinking in doing it all over just halter style, what do you think???
BTW I would hate to have to start all over

I love the outfits!!!!!! specially the princesses one... where do you get that fabric???

THanks - I couldnt find crocs yet, those are the little vinyl shoes that came with the doll - but actually they match!! yay!!!

I finished up the capris tonight (with the exception of the elastic) but Im afraid of the tops!! How do you finish them off - do you really do it by hand? What if everything doesnt match up - aaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!

Don't tell anyone....but I haven't actually finished them off yet-I HATE to sew by hand!!!

BUT...if you aren't going for a reversable top it doesn't have to be perfect on the inside. I like perfect-that is why I don't like hand sewing. I'm an accountant by trade so I like everything all neat & perfect.

 

[Tinka_Belle]

Those are all so cute. I have that same Pooh fabric. I need to make something with it.

OH! and Your DD is absolutely ADORABLE!!! Her glasses just make me smile! My DS10 got his first pair at 3, my DD12 at 5 (doesn't need them anymore) and my DS6 got his at 5. I just think glasses are the cutest!

Jenna wears glasse and I have to agree that I like them. She looks so cute in hers.

Cute Cute!!!

Which doll is that? I haven't seen those shoes yet. That outfit is really cute. Jenna wants that doll for Christmas and she wants the sallon chair and the bed. Ok she wants everything.

Well.....I got a new machine for my b'day!! I got the Brother SE350!!! I can't wait to get it out tomorrow and check it ou!!!

Anybody else got this machine???

I have it and I love it. If you have any questions I would be happy to help all I can.
