Bubhub Sew Off #3!!!

[Shanaynay]

The theme is DISNEY and the Sew-Off runs for 2 weeks: closes Sunday evening, June 3rd.

I hope no-one minds, I'm keen to get the third Sew-Off happening!!!

If you are new to the Bubhub Sew-Offs, all you have to do is sew something that fits with the current theme. This is in the cloth nappy section, so most of us are doing modern cloth products, but if you don't use cloth nappies it's cool if you want to join us and make something else that fits with the theme, such as kid's clothes :thumbsup:

Congrats to HoopDeeDoo for winning the second Sew-Off.... Hoop did you pick "Disney" as the theme?

Closing date 2 weeks...... so Sunday the 3rd of June?

[HoopDeeDoo]

Yep if thats cool with everyone, I thought Disney would spread over girls and boys, and we should get lots of different entries. What does everybody think?

[Shanaynay]

Disney sounds great:thumbsup:

[Foxymoron]

Great idea, gives wide scope for ideas. I'm up for it!

[mumma_jessy]

Oooh, I'm in!

What to do, what to do, off to investigate!

[OM]

[Foxymoron]

Wattle that is just adorable. And oh my - I could spend many a happy hour squishing the chub on those little thighs :laughing: what a sweetie!

[HoopDeeDoo]

I love it Wattle! What a gorgeous girl you have :)

[wattle]

Thanks everyone. Yes those chubby wubby little squeezy thighs and cheeks are so delicious. I'm sure my kids are sick of me kissing them so much. :D

Oddly enough I don't find my own chubby thighs quite so attractive.

[HoopDeeDoo]

:laughing: I know exactly how you feel :laughing:

[Foxymoron]

:laughing: Yup, I hear ya.

[Jazuli]

I love how the singlet matches perfectly too.

[Little_Toad]

lillipilli, that nappy is hilarious,
Love it!

Wattle.. tigger is for me!!

[Tubbychook]

wow nemo is great so very creative.

[bekkyboo]

Right... I have done this one... but i really really dont like it... So back to the drawing board...

It was a "Princess" inspired nappy... You know - how her dress has a blue top and a yellow skirt...

well... ill come back and post.... some one smells a bit woofy!

The nappy... (http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n111/The_Lee_Family/My%20MCN/28052007603.jpg) Back... cant be bothered with the front...

So yeah... like i said, back to the drawing board.

[Shanaynay]

Bek I love it!! And the nemo one too! And tigger! But I think I said that before!!
Ooooo what will I do? need some inspiration :wizard:

[Foxymoron]

Thomas has shed his mild mannered alter ego and become Super Clingon. So I'm not able to sew anything at the moment :no: .

[HoopDeeDoo]

:eek: :eek: That Nemo Nappy is soooo awesome!!!! Fantastic job!!!

Bekky the princess nappy is very nice, but I can understand why G was trying to escape :laughing: Poor little fella. I think it's great though - it would look fab with a matching top :yes:

Poor Lachaln pulled out the cord for my foot pedal about 10 ten this afternoon trying to get me to focus all my attension on him. I was actually sewing a nappy for a friend that I promised her weeks and weeks ago - not the sew off. But I kept sewing when Scott got home and here is my entry:

It's a night nappy for Noah that has 7 layers of bamboo in the wet zone once it's put together, so it should work well.

I'll get action pics tomorrow he was a bit too moody for that tonight

[katherine]

you guys are all soooo talented.. you inspire me.. who wants to teach me to sew :):):)
(sorry for crashing your thread)

[HoopDeeDoo]

Crash away as long as you are giving away compliments :laughing:

[Shanaynay]

Omg Hoop I absolutely LOVE that print.... it's gorgeous.... what sort of material? I love it.... where did you get it from?

[HoopDeeDoo]

It's 100% cotton patchwork fabric, and I got it from
The Patchwork Shop my parents own - Where I work occasionally

It was a freebee, because there was a fault in it, but it was easy to cut around :smiliedance: I could get you some if you like, I think there is some left - without faults of course

Oh Hoop I would LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE some it's so gorgeous!!! I don't care how much it is - I must have it :D Next time you're there can you see if there is some left, (about 55cm in length? - width whatever it comes in - obviously at least 55cm) and PM me with details so I can deposit some $$ into your account for it?

[Isaac's Mummy]

Wow:eek: What great entries so far! Love that Nemo nappy LP!

You girls are all so very, very clever.

Hoop - that print is absolutely beautiful. I love Winnie the Pooh. Isaac also loves Winnie the Pooh (he doesn't have much of a choice - Mummy sort of inflicts it on him:D ). I do believe that your parents' shop is going to become a favourite haunt of mine once I get to Canberra:laughing: It's not going to be good for the bank account at all.

Keep those entries coming girls, you're inspiring me to pull out the machine and start cutting up my material.

Try working there :laughing: I don't actually take any pay home at all, I think my account is about -$400 ATM :laughing: It was so good not being tempted while I was having/looking after babies 24/7.

[Little_Toad]

Well done Hoopdeedoo!!

Is Noah old enough to know its whinnie the pooh?

I noticed you used a different pattern to usual.. what is this one?

[HoopDeeDoo]

Oh yes! :yes: We read Whinnie the Pooh a lot, we have about 7 different book sets because I was Whinnie the Pooh obsessed before I had kids and everyone who knows me knows that so we got given a lot of books. So he knows all about it. Plus he has a couple of DVDs, they have rereleased some of the old cartoons.
His fav toys that he used to carry everywhere for ages was a Whinnie the Pooh, and Tigger, that were half the size of him, but he insisted he had to carry them where ever he went, and they still have to be in bed with him when he goes to sleep.

this is Noah when we were on holidays, we had just gone to the Wiggles Concert in Wollongong (http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r25/hoopdeedoo/DSC00008-1.jpg)

This is my pattern, I just prefer snaps for fitteds, cause the velcro gets caught on the soakers. I just extended the wings until it was about the length it would be if they were velcro tabs. I changed it since The Wiggles fitted, I wanted 2 layers of snaps, I think this gives a better fit.

I have now added action shots to my original photo post :)

[Foxymoron]

gorgeous entries! Hoop cute pics :yes: I might have to sit this one out. Thomas is sooo grumpy :thumbsdown:

[mumma_jessy]

Love the pooh nappy Hoop!

I have actually started mine now, so should be done by the weekend, depending on the kidletts of course! I'm all excited now, it's gonna be a close one this time, there are so many posiblities with disney!

[Shanaynay]

I've made one but it's very boring :o
Might see what else I can come up with before the end of the week :D

[Tubbychook]

Ok heres mine its not as falsh as some of the others but considering i am still learning i am very proud of myself. Its the first time ive ever done applique and i taught myself to do it.

Its a little set for my neice Ebony so no modeling as its too small for DS to model.

[HoopDeeDoo]

That looks fantastic Tubby!!! Too cute, can't wait to see action pics :yes:

[Foxymoron]

Nice work! My DD would love that, she'd go mad at me for her not still being in nappies LOL.

[Jazuli]

I like them all, tubby my daughter would love that too and she is out of nappies as well.

[bekkyboo]

[Jazuli]

I like the mickey one very cute.

[Tubbychook]

Very nice Bekky. dh suggested i do a micky one but i wasnt sure how to do it. Plus i also wanted to do a girly one.

[HoopDeeDoo]

Very nice Bekky!!! Noah would love that nappy!! I was thinking about doing another one with mickey mouse, but haven't been inspired enough

[bekkyboo]

lol... I had so many mickey ideas in my head, but G is making my life rather hard to do anything but hold him at the moment - so that was the quickest one i could do... im just SO much happier with it than the princess one. It was kiddy without being baby....

[FunkyMonkey]

Oh noes! I only have 2 days to think of a design and get it made! So little time.....

[Shanaynay]

Come on Tarquin's Mum :smiliedance:

I have one, but it's boring and cr@p, I'm hoping to find some time on Sunday to do another :thumbsup:

Bekky, I love the Mickey Mouse one! Did you trace around something for the head, or just draw it yourself? I like it!

[bekkyboo]

Zoe - it was all me :)

[mumma_jessy]

Ok finally took the photos! Here is my entry, all made by me :D

model's butt, lol (http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m29/mumma_jessy/model-disney-nappy.gif)

Still waiting on my snap press, which is why it was pinned, and made for a smaller bub obviously but i had to squeeze DD into it to show it off!

[Foxymoron]

Love it!
Is it an aio?

[Jazuli]

The minnie one is great, did you chop a shirt up for that because i was looking at my spotty shirt exactly the same and was considering a minnie one.

[HoopDeeDoo]

Oh wow minnie mouse is sooo cool! Noah loved it, and he knew what it was going to be from the first photo :eek: :p

[mumma_jessy]

It's an AI2, with a snap in booster (well, will be snap in, lol!)

I managed to find the spotty fabric at Spotlight actually, after looking for it for ages!!

Minnie is polar/micro fleece peices sewn together, then sewn onto the nappy. She took forever to make!

[Shanaynay]

Can't find my camera cable so won't even bother taking a pic of mine - it's a bit boring anyhow, just Winnie The Pooh flanellette!

Any more entries? Poll starts today!
