I would like to see all the stuff you talented ladies can do/have done, DIY, etc.!!!! Knitting, crocheting, sewing, needlepoint, anything in furniture design, perhaps some DIY outside of wedding oriented, but I'd like to see both!!! Pics, please!! Mary MOB

nope, no pattern. I just sit there and look at it and brainstorm on what i think would work better. Trial and error really...lord knows i've had some errors. i was always more into crafty things...when i was little I was more interested in making new clothes for my barbies instead of just playing with them.

Mary they are all swarovski crystals set by hand. Much like ice skater's costumes, the more sparkle you have in the arena, the more you stand out to the judges
Meg, I didn't know that sparkles attracted judges' attention, but it certainly would attract my attention!!! Where do you buy the crystals? It must take a lot of time to decorate all those outfits!! Meg, do you ever ride your horse down my way, ie. Lancaster? Have you ever seen the Lippizaner Stallions? Here's a video link to see them!! So beautiful!!!!! Mary MOB
I put hours and thousands of crystals on some of the outfits. I mostly buy them online and in large quantities to get the best prices.
We show all over the US. There are photos from the 2007 World Championships in my one album on here. They are held in Ft. Worth Texas. Some of my dearest friends that show horses (in the photos with me as well) are from Lititz. Alida (Farrington) Burkholder and her sister Alison Garman they have Lower Hopewell Farm.

I did ballet and tap for years. I also did jazz and some other stuff but ballet and tap were my favorite.
Did you stop dancing? I have two left feet, but enjoy watching others dance!! Mary MOB
Yeah I had to stop....I got tendonitis in my ankle and I went away to college. For awhile I would dance when I came home but I started working full time and going to school full time. I miss it a lot. I competed for years but it was really hard on my body so now once in awhile I will stop by and take some classes but I'm out of shape.

Those outfits are beautiful!!! We used to do that with dance costumes...they were month-long projects but its worth it when its recognized.

I make gift baskets, shower/party favors but am mostly proud of my infamous baby Pamper Cakers. I can do pretty much any theme you'd like. Ladies, keep in mind for after the wedding ;o)
