Disboutiquers Part 12 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

[The Moonk's Mom]

Thank you for all of the compliments! I think I am happy with it now. After a little tweeking here is the final result:

That is too cute!!!

Good use of the old stash! Turned out very cute!!!

I think your final product turned out great! I know what you mean about the seam ripper and ruffles....ugh! That was me ans Katie's birthday outfit! I thought I would go nuts before I got done with it!

Hello everybody,
I just wanted to post and thank you all for a sleepless night I am planning a trip to Disney for my family, and came across this tread, and fell in love with the many beautiful projects you all are doing. Looking at your work lead me to Etsy, to an adorable pillowcase polkadot dress with a Minnie applique, which brought me to "wow, that doesn't look so hard, I wonder if I could do that", which lead me to the fabric store. I bought a pattern and some fabric to try my hand and see if I could make a sundress for DD. Thus the sleepless night

I just wanted to let you know you've all inspired me. While I don't seem to have any natural talent for sewing (the armholes on this dress are lookin ROUGH) its certianly been an fun adventure, and I'm enjoying it. So thank you all

Oh welcome to the nights where you lay awake sewing in your mind and then you get up at weird hours to sew or stay up all night just to see how it look when it is done!

Thank you for showing me that I can make an applique too!! I never thought I could do it. So here is the 5th pillowcase dress I have made for my Daughter with my very first applique.

VERY CUTE! And great job on the applique!

I made these minnie korkers to wear on crocs. What do you all think about these? Please give me your honest opinion. I was also thinking about making bows to go on them as well.

They are cute! I would so wear those!

Okay, some drama today. My husband walked downstairs this morning to two men in the house. VERY stressful. Called the police, got the report - got a very good finger/hand print.

First!

Next...great outfit!

Finally took pictures of last weekend's projects and finished them up.

I made DS a pair of PJ's for our AKL stay. Thanks to Steph for posting something (an I spy pillow?) using this fabric. I knew it would be perfect for AKL PJ's.

I made an adult Mickey & Walt using a rigger T from Old Navy. I really should have used 2 layers of stabilizer though. I won't make that mistake again.

And this morning I finished a bowling shirt for DS to wear on the sunrise safari. I haven't put the buttons on yet. I stole those off an old worn out pair of DH's pants. I might see if I can find anything I like better.

Love all the outfits! Great job...But now I may have to make me a Mickey and Walt shirt....hmmmm...

Ok ladies - here is the skirt with the tulle trimmed - Joci LOVES it! And I have to say I do too.

She looks so cute and like she really loves it! Good job!

You did a great job. I just started reading Twilight last night. It is a very easy read as you all said. I haven't decided if I like it yet or not...we will know by the end of the week.

So here is Lucy Lu Flint and Miss Gracie Flint

Really nice! I know you guys will have a great time having your adventrue!

I finished my Disney sets for my boys!
Here are my almost 3-year old's (Shirts are iron-on transfers the DISigners helped me with!):

And the Cars birthday banner for the upcoming birthday party!

Great outfits...and a birthday banner! Wow! That looks so cool!

I am back too, lurking...

I am taking over as PTA president next year at the kids' school so they want me included in everything so I will know what I am doing next year. It is really taking a lot of time. Today I get to lead my first meeting (eek!).

Our spring carnival is coming up and I want to make something for the silent auction. What do you think would bring in the most money? Last year I made a dress and it did ok, about $30. Throw out your ideas please, you guys are so creative!

Megan said the highlight of her trip was meeting Bolt, so here she is:

I think the highlight of the trip for Jacob was the American Idol show:

Happy Monday everyone!

Love the Bolt pic...we just got the movie last weekend and I have yet to watch it.



Love the PJ's and the blankie!



BTW thanks for all the compliments eveyone gave on the Big Give outfit! You guys know how to make a girl feel good!


And Mini rant! Why do they not put tags in the back of little kids clothes all of the time. Poor Timmy gets so mad when he puts his pants on and the tag is in the front...he always puts them on backwards and when I tell him they are, he says the tag is in the back...see!

For Minnie2:

This is the pattern I work off of and adapt to my needs. Super easy and super cute.

I am so excited I found this fabric on that (auction site), this morning & bought it...It was a bit expensive compared to what I would normally pay..but the first time I saw that I wanted it!! It was a buy-it-now option...and comes in 2yd increments!! They do have more available to! I think I am in heaven today! Now what to make with it!

That is so pretty! Great find. Cant wait to see what it becomes.

Happy Dance here too. Check out the Ticker. I just booked 7 Nights at AKL for free dining. Kids are getting a bit big for the little doubles at the values. Thought bunk beds would be great for them this year.

I think the highlight of the trip for Jacob was the American Idol show:

Happy Monday everyone!

Love the Bolt pic. My kids haven't seen it yet, but I have a feeling the Easter Bunny will be dropping it off for DS 7



Cute PJs, and I thought we had a no apologizing for the way our kids or houses look rule?!?!!?

Tinka_belle cool Twilight bag. I just finished reading the first book (it is my son;s book, he is almost thru it) Now if I can just convince the easter bunny to bring him New Moon I can start on that this weekend.

Mickimouse mama - love the pink pirate outfit. Hope you have fun on your adventure

Mycathryn - very cute pillow case dresses. Love the pooh one. I really like that fabric.

JamieK - great boys shirts. I think I will have to be making some like that for our trip in Sept.

Lovesdumbo - DH just saw the Walt and Mickey shirt and feels he needs one for our trip. I really like how it looks with the ringer T.

 

[tricia]

whew, just looked at my own ticker and thought, 'It's a good thing they changed ADR's from 180 to 90 days, as I am already past 180' This is short notice for me. I am usually like 2 years ahead with everything.

HI - what did you search under? i checked minnie mouse fabric pink, and it didnt come up...

 

[mom2prettyprincess]

HI - what did you search under? i checked minnie mouse fabric pink, and it didnt come up...

Search like this....

use disney as search word...in the all categories search....then when you can go into sub categories click on the more categories option...then into crafts and then into sewing and supplies...then i went into most recently listed...it was a page or 2 in...

I also just looked up the seller id: fabric_addiction

That should get you there. If not let me know.

 

[mom2prettyprincess]

This was the tagline for it:

2y Rare Disney Pink Minnie Hawaiian Cotton Quilt FaBRic


If you can beleive it I spent almost 2 hours last night going through the fabric that came up...by doing it the other way...there was over 1000+ items....and did it of course as least amount of time left...and this was like almost the last stinkin item!!

 

[MinnieVanMom]

Trica,

Congrats on the trip! We will be there around the same time also but at CSR and BCV. It is such a good time with MNSSHP, FD, F&W and hot summer days! We just love AKV but wanted to use the pool at BCV since it will hot. Also we have access to Epcot and world showcase with all that great food!

I hope we can just meet to say Hi.

Why did my finger just buy more fabric!

 

[phins_jazy]

Why did my finger just buy more fabric!

LOL!!! Enjoy your new fabric.

 

[angelztreazurez]

do you have any more left ??

 

[mom2prettyprincess]

Why did my finger just buy more fabric!

I know...I couldn't help it either...when I got up this morning my boyfriend had sent me an email it said....Really, was this necessary...I think you have a problem! LOL!

I think I am going to have to get another paypal acct!

I just checked the listing..it said 1 more was available.

I previously shared the first Disney Dress I made for my DD.

Here is the second Disney Dress I finished for dinner at 1900 Park Fare. It is my second applique.

And the third dress for dinner at Crystal Palace.

Thanks again for inspiring me to try something I never thought I could do. I cant wait to try my next applique.

Those turned out super cute and looks like you did a great job on the appliques!

Thanks for the compliments on the Twilight bag. The pictures were done on the ink jet printer fabric with the adhesive backing. I thought that it was the heat set kind, but it isn't. I am just hoping that they won't peel off. They seem pretty secure though.

I also made her these bows. I used the tutorial that is posted here on the Dis.

One of Jenna's friends told her that she was very cool because she has the Twilight books, the movie and because she now has a messenger bag that I made her. Well I guess now she is super cool, because she has the bows to match.

Oooh, cute! Believe it or not, I have a fellow Mommy friend who would love those for herself! I think she's bought every single Twilight product so far lol.

Well I ended up going all out guess I just got carried away.. Plus I made her doll Gracie a complete outfit and she was REALLY sad that she didn't get a skirt too.
Sooooooo

I ended up doing a corset, this is my first time Ever doing one, and I think for "winging it" it turned out really well, especially since she was sleeping.. and yes I am that mean mom that would slip it on and off of her while she slept.. can you say SOUND sleeper?

So here is Lucy Lu Flint and Miss Gracie Flint

Of course that skirt is WAYYYYYY too much to wear buckled in a harnessed Carseat LOL so she will not be wearing that as we travel. and after I read the comments on here I think I just might try doing a peasant style top out of knit. I can't go buy anything but I'm thinking maybe I could find some of DH's old t-shirts and use one of those since they are size 3X I should have enough material to use

Thanks for everyone's input it is GREATLY appretiated!!

Wow, that is really cute, love the whole set. What kind of doll is that? She's super adorable!

I finished my Disney sets for my boys!
Here are my almost 3-year old's (Shirts are iron-on transfers the DISigners helped me with!):

One of the 7 month old's sets (I made him several onesies, not too many shorts):

And the Cars birthday banner for the upcoming birthday party!

Yay! Love all the bright colors and the matching Nemo sets.

I am back too, lurking...

Cute Ariel outfit in the photo. No ideas for spring carnival, though. =P

I just needed some thing simple after that Tink patchwork before I started my nieces.
Pj's for Kyle. Please ignore the chocolate face and the lovely scratch just in time for picture day today!
Oh and his dirty blankie and yelowie! Neither leave his side! He has been carting around blankie since he was a few months and yellowie since he was 3 or 4 I can't remember. I just know my mom got him at the Atlanta zoo. Both have also been to WDW! and Yellowie even has his own Custom!


Here are some pj's I made Nikki yesterday. I didn't have enough fabric. I only had a yard so I had to make due! I am just glad she will still let me make her things with this kind of fabric even if it is just pj's!

Yes that is snow in the background It only ended up to be a dusting but still!!!!! I am not a happy camper!
Yup that is also a Mickey TV in the background too. I need to put it away. eventually I want to put it in the kitchen but we don't have a receiver for it yet....

Oh and I forgot to mention to all you fellow boutiquers with older girls believe it or not some of them still really like the little girlie ruffl stuff. When my girlfriends little girl opened her pink ruffled up dress with allt he ruffles in the back I had 2 3rd graders( 9 yrs old!) say they wanted one!!!!!! So I may try to modify the pattern for my gf other dd for her bday in June!

Those are great jammies!

*gasp* I love it!

I finished a bit of stuff this weekend, despite being sick now with whatever dd had. BUT we finally had nice weather, so Daddy took her out to play which allowed me to sew on the machine for about 40 minutes. Yay!

I was able to get this fabric today @ my JoAnn's and most of what i have has been spoken for on the swap board, but my favorite lady at JoAnn's was able to locate more for me, but not alot & I already have it ordered and on the way, to be shipped to me tomorrow!!! There were only 3 JoAnn's in the United States that had any left and I ordered it all since I knew everyone on this board liked it so much...You guys have inspired me to sew things other than pillowcases...So I put in a little extra work to get you all some of the fabric that most said it was hard to find!! I actually just happened to stumble upon it in JoAnn on Friday. If anyone wants any let me know...just PM me...[/QUOTE]


any chance you have some left ???

[Mommy2JulietJocelyn]

Hi April!



Anyone ever do anything curious George?

Wendy

I will be making a couple George outfits for my youngest (16m) a multi layer tulle skirt & corset top - using a fabric book panel from Joann's & I am not sure what other outfit with a red george fabric.

 

[jessica52877]

I keep forgetting to say what a cute idea the CARS banner was! I either try to comment on all or nothing but all takes a LONG time and I have been so busy lately! I do LOVE all that has been posted though! Love the boys outfits and the pillowcase dresses and the pirate outfits!
