I might just have to stick a label on the machine to remind me that looser is a higher number :P ROFL I think my old one was almost always on 3, but that's mainly because it's the setting it was on when I got it 😇

I love the angelic look you've got today :D

its a good idea xd He same with me amd the singer Thank you. Totally recycked the look. Loving the haless one youve got xd

:P I took a photo of the settings before I changed it, just in case :P

hehe I thought I'd seen something similar before ;) Thanks :d Having used the dog with the frisbee, I had to use the one with the sprinkler too ;)

haha good plan :D yep, didn't know what to do so lol just reused. ;) its too cute :D

laughs well today's one certainly doesn't look like you were lacking inspiration, that looks great! I love the way you've matched the hair piece to the beads on the dress :D

I felt it needed the grass to block out the sprinkler itself though - it didn't look quite right otherwise :P

Aww thank you :) The grass is a great touch.

today's look won't be quite so inspired.... I want to use a particular item on Niamh, but it's proving a bit more challenging :P

I like it though. The bg and foreground work surprisingly well togethe.r what were you trying to work with?

the dress () ;) although I did add in the neapolitan leggings as well, because Niamh wanted her legs covered :P

....and I promised a better photo of both new shirts, didn't I? ;)

:D

Sorry I have been MIA for a bit, things have been kind of hectic for me. We got a new chick, I thought you might like to see pictures:

Dr. Cluckenstein

First day we brought her home, she's about 2 weeks old here This one is from last week, she likes to sit on my shoulder. xD From a few days ago, she sits oddly when she is comfortable. She likes to lay on her side and stick her feet out. 😂 It's an odd position for a bird, haha!

Paddy: Ooo, I am loving the HA colors today, the pinks in Niamh's outfit go perfectly with the backdrop! :D Those shirts look brilliant, I love the little owls on the first one. xD

Raven: That's a lovely HA today! :D I of course appreciate all of the blue and sparkles. ;)

awwww she looks really sweet! That really doesn't look a comfortable angle to sit at though! ;)

Thanks :D I got Niamh's dress yesterday, so I wanted to go with the Neapolitan colourscheme for her outfit :P

And thanks! :D There's a few bits that didn't quite work out right on both shirts, but they've ended up wearable, and that's what matters ;) :D

Yeah, she's a sweetheart! <3 She likes people a lot, too. I know, it's such an odd position for a bird! I've never had a chicken or parrot that sat like that before. xD I guess she's comfy though, because that's how she likes to sit on my lap.

It looks lovely! I got the sprinkle one because I had the grape version already. xD She does match the ice cream cone perfectly!

They look great! Yes, that's the important thing. I doubt anyone else will notice that some parts didn't work out exactly how you had wanted them to. ;)

hehe it's sweet though :d Maybe she's just learnt that is the most comfy position, and it's all the other birds that haven't caught up with her yet? ;)

It was surprisingly challenging to match that cone! I thought I'd have more neapolitan themed items in my wardrobe, but there wasn't much there that'd work with the dress o.O

:D I went with poppers for the shirts, to save doing buttonholes on my new machine just yet.... I didn't feel brave enough to attempt that! 😊

Haha, maybe! Perhaps the other birds don't know what they are missing. 😂

I can believe that it would be tricky to match! It's not too often that you see those three colors all together.

Oh, that was a good idea! I like the name "poppers," we call them snaps. :-) I can imagine that the buttonholes would be difficult to sew on any machine. 😮

ah that does look challenging to work with. Oh I think they turned out well!

oooh so cutttteeee. What kind is she? thanks XD I like your sightseeing bird. or is it a people watching bird?

She's an Ameraucana. :D They lay blue/green eggs, too, so that will be interesting. 😮 Haha thanks, she was a bird watching gryphon. xD Although, a people watching bird would be hilarious!

I had to google haha. So spiffy. Was she expensive? Where'd you get her from? hehe yes I thought people watching would be very amsuing

She was like $3.50. xD Unless you get into buying show chickens, they are really very cheep (bird pun 😂). We got her from one of the feed centers not far from here, Oley Valley Feed Mill. Tractor Supply sells chicks too, though, and I think they are all over the country. It would. 😂 I should have thought of that! I made that HA for a nature contest, that's why she was bird watching. xD

wow thats a great price and terrible pun haha. You must be struggling not to buy more :) hehe. maybe Dusk can expand her hobby?

nods it makes you wonder how they ever thought of putting those three flavours of ice cream together in the first place! ;) hehe I think mine sound more like a snap than a pop when they get done up - the blue ones seem a bit stiff to press together at the moment o.O Yeah, my old machine was a bit picky with the automatic buttonholes, but I could do manual ones ok.... this one should be better, but it's having the confidence to attempt it! 😊

it was one Niamh insisted on owning (as per usual) :P :D I should really figure out a better spacing for the poppers - the owl shirt poppers are a bit far apart, and the others are a bit close together laughs
