I get to sew today too! But I have to run to Joanns for some emergency buttons I forgot to buy so that will probably take up half my day. Walmart had no white buttons yesterday :confused3 :headache: The person who bought my spider dress at the school auction wants another one for her other daughter and then she ordered to skirts. I'm almost done with all of it! Then back to sewing for my trip that is coming way too soon! I started a Jack Skellington dress for Lily since the boys already have Jack Skellington shirts I made last year.


How did the dress do in the auction (sorry if it is too nosy)? Our school does this in the spring and I was wondering about donating something but I don't want to go through a bunch of work to have it go for $5.00. That is great that she wanted one for her other daughter and two skirts. Can't wait to see the dress you make for Lily.

I think the dress only went for $35. They ended the auction a little early because it was windy and the auction was outside. They didn't give a warning, they just ended it. One of my friends was bidding on it for her neice and I know she would've gone higher so I like to think it could've sold for more. I'm charging her $45 for the sister dress. :confused3 Lily's Jack skellington will look a LOT like the spider Vida :rotfl:

I think they got a bargain for $35 ~ even $45 seems to cheap! That dress is way too cute!
 
A few things I finished. This is for a special little girl that is having a birthday this month.

And this is one of the 2 shirts that I am making for Hank for the Big Give. At first, I thought it was terrible and didn't plan to give it to him. I think it looks OK, but not my best work

I did the black to make it more cartoonish, but it shows allllll the mistakes.

Well I can't see them - it looks perfect to me!!!
 
Ok. I did not get the full day of sewing I had anticipated. I needed to go to Joanns. That turned into MIL and me picking out costume patterns etc.. then when we got home it was time to make dinner. But I am cruisin now. Of course when I was at JA's I forgot to get elastic which I am OUT of :headache: But we will proceed and tomorrow I will finish the waist bands of the outfits.

I am going to be a gypsy for halloween.

Gotta get back to the fabric...

OH and we made $200 at our yard sale today. Don't have much hope for tomorrow as most of the furniture is now gone. But it's vacation funding so I'll take it!:thumbsup2
we did a block sale this weekend too. saturday was pretty good
today we did a half a day and it was pitiful i made 21 dollars today, but hey it goes into my disney fund so i wont complain

I love those polka dots with the HSM fabric! But you know how I feel about polka dots :rolleyes1 I think Homer looks really cool! (DH needs that shirt) I use a black fabric marker for touchups. :eek:
 
I bought this fabric a while ago from Hancock, and I cut it out to make my ds a button down shirt, and now I am wondering if it is too girly for a boy? He's 3 yo if that makes any difference. It has Mickey, Minnie and Pluto on it.

I saw a friend who cut using a special green board and an orange wheel. It was fast and quick.

What is it and do you have it? I was thinking of getting it if it is not too expensive.

YES! I love mine! I hate cutting without them. I have no idea how much they cost, mine was a gift from my mom...but I swear, I would invest in them if she had not given them to me!
 
I joined Facebook just last week and am still trying to figure it all out. My name is Lara Malone if anyone's interested in being my friend :goodvibes

I think you are talking about a rotary cutter and a self healing cutting board. They are fantastic and I wouldn't sew without them. Make sure you use a coupon or they are on sale since they are a little pricey!

My cutter and mat are both blue they have lots of colors at JoAnn's. They are called rotary cutters. I love mine but be careful. They cut people as easily as they cut fabric. DD cut her finger with mine. Then about a month ago I dropped mine and it cut a big gash in my foot.

I almost passed out. DH got me some butterfly bandages to help it stay closed.
 
A plea for Hank!

Could someone please please please with sugar on top make a Big Give outfit?? He is the wish child with the Lambflock give. His little sister has been full for quite awhile, but poor Hank still has on spot left to fill. He would love an Indiana Jones themed shirt. Iron ons are fine if you don't want to sew.
