I suggested this, but I have been bad about not posting anything. This is my first ever post with a picture, so I hope it works! http://www.shutterfly.com/lightbox/v...#1272765513697
I made these guys for DD and her cousin. They are crochet, as I cannot knit.
I made a couple pillowcase dresses for our trip to WDW. This is my first sewing attempt ever (and first attempt at adding pics!).
edit - need to fix pics.... be back soon!

eta: I think that worked. If I posted it wrong, please let me know! I also made a giraffe print pillowcase dress for Animal Kingdom, but my camera is mad at me and I can't take a pic. I did a terrible job, but this is the first time I have ever used a sewing machine, so I am pretty proud :)
Those look awesome....great job for a first sewing project!!! How old is your DD? Seems like those might be around a 4T size? My DD is 2, and those would be so comfy and cool for the summer!
I still have to figure out how to make my pictures work!:shrug:
Thanks!
lol - good guess - my girls are 4 yo. I didn't use a real pattern, so they aren't an official size. I googled pillowcase dress thanks to JTsMom (my enabler over on the Disney thread) and got instructions. I kind of held the fabric up to see how long it should be. :bag The seams are all wonky and there are some big goofs, but when they are wearing them you can't really tell. (at least that is what I tell myself!) They were fun to make. But now my girls want me to put a mickey head on everything they own! :)
:applause: Those look great. I want to try my second set of pillowcase dresses soon. The first ones I made are definitely very rough!
Yesterday I did my first ever booth at a May Day festival. I was trying to sell my crocheted dolls, scrubbies, wash clothes and a couple scarves. I made $5. Wooohooo. That almost half covered my lunch and the sunscreen I had to buy at the last minute because it was in the 90's. I actually had a lot of fun at the festival though and I didn't have to pay for the booth so no worries.
I just finished this quilt for my youngest's bed:

I bought this table for $.50 at a garage sale and spray painted it (and the lamp).

Here are some skirts I made last fall: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y12...h_IMG_1034.jpg
I made these scrub shirts for my niece for Christmas:

Melaine - Post some pics! I am impressed that you did a booth at a craft fair!
Angela - Wow - you are very crafty! The quilt and the skirts are adorable.
Ok, I am going to try again with my picture of my crochet piglets. I too want to see pics of the crochet dolls from the craft fair!
