Wow so many great projects posted everything looks so nice can't quote now posting from the iPad but love the Mickey dress and leopard print shorts.....I am getting very excited as my pe770 and my 1034d should be on island next Monday feels like I've been waiting forever. I can't wait to get busy so I can post and share too
Congrats! I can't wait to see what you make with your new machines!
Marianne has a tutorial on page 207 for the side pockets (sewn on the outside of the pants).
I never did a tut for the flap pockets -- I just grabbed a pair of ds's shorts and kind of copied them. If you look on Jayden's BG I have a few pictures.
I have these other tuts pinned:

I hope those help you out -- they are easy to do IMO and so many options.

YAH!!!Woo HOO!!! Just got back from Wal-Mart and was able to get the fabric I wanted!! Well, actually I got two different ones and a Black and white check.
The plan is to make easy shorts. My DS5 has a wonderful Lightening McQueen appiqued shirt. The shirt is white. Opinions wanted on which of the two fabrics I got should I make the shorts for him out of???
I saw somewhere the check used for pockets, but not sure that will look right with the fabric I have.
Thanks in advance!
YAH!!!
Congrats.
I like the red if you really want to use the B&W Check. I think the contrast will work well!
I like to lay my fabrics out ontop of each other to get an idea of how I think it will work together BUT Sometimes you just won't know until you stitch it all out and your done.
Thanks guys for all the advise on getting my designs together.
I just signed up on heather's site last night - so I don't have a coupon code yet...
Up until this point I was not brave enough and lack the supplies to sew clothes for anyone other than DD and DS. I think now that I have everything (or on its way at least) I will sew more for the BG's
I'll check out the Rubber Ducky ranch (love that name) too!
?'s for those with Sergers
I am planning on getting a serger book for my sewing library soon. Any suggestions on what I should get? I was also wondering when using a serger to create seams - do you have to add to your patterns seam allowance?
I just got confirmation from the shipping company and all of my packages have arrived and are being shipped down here on Thrusday. The boat will arrive on Saturday night and I can pick up my stuff on Monday!!! can you guess what I'll be doing ALL of next week......
Hold the shirt up to the fabric and see which looks best. I love that blue fabric so I would lean toward that one, but I'm thinking if it's a white shirt with a red McQueen on it that the red might be better. You could also use checked for a cuff at the bottom of the shorts if it looks too busy for pockets.Woo HOO!!! Just got back from Wal-Mart and was able to get the fabric I wanted!!

I sew my seams on my sewing machine and then serge them. I made a couple of things serged alone and the serging alone does not hold up as well. So just use the normal seam allowance, stitch it as you would and then serge.Thanks guys for all the advise on getting my designs together.
