Disboutiquers Part 21 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

Oh good, you all made it safely and have already exited the tram. Hopefully you watched your head, and if you didn't watch you head, you watched your language!!

I think maybe you should apply for a job as a tram announcer (is that what they are called, since they aren't the driver?) while you are in Florida! It would be a pretty great job!

Yea, so not fair! Lucky for me this theatre has pretty good seats in most locations, so I'm happy with what I got. It's usually videoed, and I always buy the DVD, so if I do miss anything I can catch it again later.

You sound like me waiting in the line for preschool I got there at 5:00 in the morning back in the beginning of February and it was raining and around 40 degrees. And I was the seventh in line. The earlier ones had been there since 3:30 am ! And my girls barely got in!

i officially promise to do a better job of keeping up on thread #21. off to a good start

Linette, I loved the outfits that you did with your blurry eyes, maybe I will try that and my things may come out better (I lost the quote in the page change)
I am going to be in your neck of the woods for the May long weekend (May 21-24 for you Americans) and I was wondering if there were any "not to be missed" fabric stores I should take a look at, we don't get very much Disney fabric up here, is there a good spot to stock up?

Good morning ladies. This is my first time posting. We are in the very beginning stages of planning our fist Disney trip which won't be until December 2011 so I have lost of time to plan outfits and sew! I tried to keep up with the last thread - but it moves so fast! I will probably have a hard time keeping up here too.

Anyway I haven't done much Disney-specific sewing except for this outfit which has been very popular in my Etsy shop:

I am getting lots of ideas on here and can't wait until my sewing schedule slows down enough that I can start trying them. I am going to be making my girls a Jesse shorts set to go to the Toy Story 3 premier!

Welcome and well done, that is so cute!!

I'm here. We are still in the process of moving, so I've been lurking, but I am here. I am planning customs for our Nov. trip so will hopefully have some projects to share soon.

Happy Mother's Day everyone!

Welcome to the board. We will be excited to see what you make.

Just had to share this, only you guys would appreciate it.
I just started Toy Story 3 for DGD4 to watch. Every time I start a Disney movie and the castle comes on the tv my DGD4 screams "MY CASTLE!!!". She thinks that is her castle (and the one at the park) and no one else's!!!

That is so stinkin cute!

We are home from our 9 days at the world and still very tired. I did post on FB with an album of photos. Unfortunately, we missed seeing Benita I really tried to see her but we just didn't make it back from the beach on time. I did however run into a friend who use to live in our very small town at the Beach club. We could not have tried to make it happen but just out of chance they were there.

I cleaned up the edges of my last quilt and need to get the fabric to bind it. I don't know what I will be making next but we have Disneyland in less than 2 months.

I can see doing this for preschool, that's so much more important than a dance recital IMO. But the sad part is the parents who did this are vetrans, and the mommies of new dancers (preschool age) probably aren't aware how fast tickets sell out. And believe it or not, this way is probably better than general admission free-for-all when they line up at the theatre door 2 hours early and then save 40 seats with tape and ribbon...it did get ugly in there a few years ago from what I understand, lol. I missed it because we were at another studio then, and had 2 shows.

Well hello, I have lived here forever (well, almost) what a small world, did you grow up here in North Van? I know someone who is in Maple Ridge from these boards but that is about it. Thanks for sayin HI!!

 

[disneygirlsanddrew]

Well, glad I made it here! This morning I was freezing my boondah off watching my DD play in her first soccer game but it sure was fun to watch her. she did great!

Teresa, i hope you have a great time on your trip. The weather has to be so much better than it is here. Brrrr!!!!

Did you go to school there? I graduated in 1987. Sent you a pm.

 

[100AcrePrincess]

You ran off & left me & I still made by page 4. I think that's a record for!

My favorite designer is having one too and I am right there with you!


Love all the dresses, fabrics, cakes and babies on here lately!! I really need to sew something...

AND, I am on the cusp of buying a used Saturn Vue... scared because there goes my savings... I need a newer car but these things freak me out. Anybody have one?

I have one & I LOVE it! Mine's a 2006 & it's wonderful. I like that I have room to take all the stuff we need for a week at Disney, but I don't feel like I'm driving a tank. I also like that I'm going to be able to get 3 carseats in the back.

Thanks for letting me know.
I just paid for it today. I am not sure if I can drive it to Disney - 2200 mile trip - but it will certainly get me around for work and for caking! The back looks like it lays nice and flat so I am looking forward to that

I should get him on Wednesday - he is getting new brakes before I take receipt and I noticed today that there are 4 new tires on it so that makes me happy too!

 

[froggy33]

Geesh. I could have sworn I was on here after 9:15 and I still missed the move! Oh well, page for a Saturday move isn't too bad!

I'll even post some stuff.

Thanks for looking!

 

[princessmom29]

I knew we'd move today, but I didn't miss it, yea!!! I spent more than an hour waiting in line to get tickets to my DD's dance recital. This is the first year they haven't done general seating, so if you want center front, you need to get there early. I got there on time, and was probably 30th in line. I overheard some mothers saying they got there at 5:30am and were 5th in line. Guess I'm a slacker mom. DH disagrees because I also overheard someone else saying she volunteered to get tix for several families, and she bought 50. He says the slacker moms are the ones who let their friend wait in line.

We do tickets this way, and it has gotten to the point that people are camping or the night before starting when the kids get out of school, and sleeping in thier cars. They only allow 20 tickets to be purchased per space in line so that what you are talking about doesn't happen. We lucked out this year and had a friend on staff with enough extra tickets that we didn't have to camp out, but I have overnighted the last two years. I think it is so much better than general seating. I would much rather have a long night well in advance of the recital than have to get there way early on recital night. We are tired enought by the time we are there from 4:00 to midnight for rehersal the day before. DD6 really HAS to sleep in the next day if she is going to dance 5 numbers. We had people lining up outside the civic center doors at noon on recital day for a 6:30 pm performance. That makes for really cranky dancers by 11:00 when the last number rolls. It also cuts down on having to referee seat saving. That coudl be a nightmare in and of itself. This way no one has to get there before the doors open at 5:30 and vthe kids are in much better shape to dance.

Hey, i don't know if this should be answered on the board or PM'd to me, but I was wondering if anyone knows of an embroidery design out there that I could purchase of Mickey dressed up as dopey? I would really appreciate any help!
