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

[Tnkrbelle565]

Thank you guys for all your positive feed back I made another shirt today for my niece, still have to make DD a matching one! I feel good like I'm on a roll! I did not have a pattern for this just an idea from other tops I have seen. I can't wait to see it on her.

Really cute...love the corset back!

I can post photos now!! YAY!


Ok, so I've been making things with patterns from youcanmakethis.com - the faith top and the boutique bottoms. I've NEVER sewn anything before! Well, maybe a pillow or something but never used a pattern and made clothing.

These are all for my 2 year old. Two are for our trip in two weeks - she needed a St. Patrick's day outfit and then I also am making a pooh outfit for our character breakfast at Crystal Palace. The other one is something just for pretty

Here is the St. Patrick's Day one:

Here is the Pooh one, which I still need to come up with some sort of applique on the top. Any ideas? Not much custom pooh stuff out there for me to CASE!

And here is the last one. A full outfit! She was NOT in the mood to cooperate with me to do photos, so this is the best I could do. I apologize for the crappy photos, you know 2 year olds. LOL

Back:

YAY!! I have this pattern down pat. I'm kind of afraid to move on to something else.


Edit: Why are my photos showing up as links? I have them in the image tags correctly?? That's odd.

I also wanted to reply to the ladies with stories of autistic kids and families that come together at Disney World- I really enjoy these stories, and I agree, the magic may only be skin deep for some, they might go and just see the commercialism or high prices, or whatever, but I dont see that when I'm there. Im 35 and I grew up with a Dad who would take us to carnivals, amusement parks, etc, but refuse to let us play the games or ride the rides- he thought it was a waste of money- but when ski season came- he practically forced us to wear top of the line stuff. I love my Dad (God bless him- he's still really struggling with this cancer and all)
but then I married a guy who knows how to be a kid.
He took me to WDW for our honeymoon and while it was our worst trip and I swore I'd never go back - obviously, something clicked, because 8 months later I agreed to give it a second chance and we went back- I learned how to turn into a kid myself and not stress the little stuff. We have been back 5 more times since 2003 and each time- we go, I enjoy myself. Each time I have magical things that happen- maybe it's because I'm looking for it, I dont know...
but reading how these special kids are affected so positively goes straight to my heart of understanding.
I know there are threads of "whats the worst thing you have seen...." etc- and sure- those types of things add color and humor to a trip- but thats whats key for me- instead of being mad or stressed, I look at it as an opportunity to feel myself react differently, my husband and I can't keep the smiles off our faces. For me it's the atmosphere- for him its the thrill rides, and now for both of us, it's sharing it with our little girl (and soon a second child!)

The clothes we all make here, well they just add to the magic. I learned to sew clothes especially because I wanted to make stuff for Disney for our trip last year in May- Ill always cherish the morning at Magic Kingdom- getting off the elevator for the rockets ride someone commented on her Minnie Mouse dress- I said "Oh thank you" my husband behind me proudly spoke up and said "She made it!" and the woman replied that it explained why it was so beautiful. Megan is now old enough to pick out fabrics and have input and that will make it all the more special when we go back.

Even though I wont be able to go til next Spring, I live vicariously through everyone who posts their stories (good and bad) about their vacations.

Thanks for reminding me how it's special to so many , in so many ways!

Thank you for sharing that. Its truly an amazing place to get lost in and just live in the magic.

Hey! Did you guys know that today is free pancake day at IHOP? Patrick surely did! This kid lives for pancakes!!!! Today was class picture day at school, that's why he has the tie on...I love him in ties!

That is soo cute. and mmm pancakes!

Here are my two latest creations and my first attempts at Carla's portrait peasant pattern. I wanted the look of the elongated top, only as a dress. I had a little trouble with the first one. It's a bit wonky at the bottom but not too noticeable. I made it for my youngest but she refuses to wear a "summer dress" until it's WARM out. In her defense, it was 15 degrees out when I tried to get her to try it on. SO instead it's modeled by my oldest.

Since the third time is the charm I imagine by the time I make this again I will have it just the way I want it.

I love them both. They are great.

Cute picture! I did not know it was free pancake day today. But I did know that it was free Mickey Mouse waffles at my parents house today. With strawberries and whipped cream. Yummy!

hahaha Hey, it was free Mickey Pancake day at our house on Sunday!

ooh Georgia walked by and said "ooh Mother dear, I truly love that, you must tell that sewing disney lady I said so!" Sooo there ya go! haha It is really cute. I love the back.

First let me say that all of the things that were posted yesterday and today are just adorable. I love everything that you guys have been making.

I was going to post some pictures of Jenna wearing the things that I made her in the last couple of days, but Photobucket isn't allowing me to edit pics.

 

[PrincessKell]

Ok so I was telling my mom about my issue with the Dr. Seuss fabric and such. She went and ordered this for Georgia..

http://www.funtocollect.com/seussgreeneggscovershirt.html

I think I am going to get a pair of her pants that are too short (there are many with Slim over here. haha) and just add a bunch of ruffles and alter the jeans to match or make it a jean skirt with ruffles or something.

 

[Tinka_Belle]

I edited these on my computer, but they aren't showing up as edited in Photobucket so I'm sorry if they are too big.

I have a quick question. It is not sewing related but I figured since so many of you dabble in much more that someone should know the answer. I am looking to paint a couple of pairs of shoes for my dd for our trip. Does anyone know where I can find the little white canvas shoes? Our walmart had them last year but I can't find any anywhere.

Thanks!!!

Those are really cute! P.S. when you do the pics use the IMG code I was confused because photobucket had 4 diff codes you could use!

Not sure why your photos didn't show up but I was able to check them out and all I can say is... "too stinkn' cute." That goes for both the outfits and your daughter.

I edited these on my computer, but they aren't showing up as edited in Photobucket so I'm sorry if they are too big.

These are great!

Here is Jenna's Mardi Gras outfit.

 

[vargas17]

I got mine at wally world a month ago on clearance for $3... I would also check target, Kmart?

I checked all 3 of our super walmarts and still none. We don't have a kmart and Target did not have any. I can get them on but I don't want to pay $7.99 plus shipping for each pair. I guess I will have to take a trip to dallas and check out the walmarts there.

Okay, I don't think poohnpigletCA shared this yet, so I'm going to...
I made all those crayon roll-ups for Sierra's 2nd grade class. I was quite pleased with myself, btw.

She told me yesterday that all the boys in her class were turning them crayon-side-out, wrapping them around their wrists, and making them lasers. Not guns, because their school has a zero policy....but lasers. I nearly cracked up. All that work, and they are now lasers.

And on the flip side of that, Sierra's friends are placing their orders, as in "I would like for your auntie to make me one with animal print". And to top if off, my 17 yo son just asked me to make him one out of the Wall-E fabric he just spotted. I promised him I would as long as he doesn't use it as a laser.

Gotta love those crayon roll-ups

Zoey(my 11 year old puppy) loves soft blankets and would even love her new sweatshirt!!!

Zoey is just a ball of puff! She looks like a good dog. Does she cuddle a lot with you? Does she like to be on your lap while you sew? Very cute.

Thank you guys for all your positive feed back I made another shirt today for my niece, still have to make DD a matching one! I feel good like I'm on a roll! I did not have a pattern for this just an idea from other tops I have seen. I can't wait to see it on her.

Very good and especially without a pattern. I keep working with commercial patterns so if I see something I want to make I will have the skilz. The corset is very pretty.

I edited these on my computer, but they aren't showing up as edited in Photobucket so I'm sorry if they are too big.

She is my favorite girl to see. How long have you been working on these? Jenna is growing up and getting tall! Her jumpers are just beautiful as is her Mardi Gras dress! The round neck blue is so pretty. Is that a matching headband you made too? I love the colours in the last dress! I like bright and cheerful at times and is goes so well with her skin colouring. Do they have big party at her school? Do you have a party? I do know today is Ash Wendesday but I don't get to go to Church as I am still working on it. Crystal, what are you doing up at 1:23 AM?

Hi Everyone!

I see everyone's creative juices have been flowing - some really great things!!!

My BFF's daughter snuck the quilt I had made for her mom for her bday after she was tucked in last night - lol - her mom had to take a pic for me!

Here is the patriotic Army quilt I made for DH while he was away last weekend! I love how the edges frayed!

Awww, there is nothing sweeter than a sleeping little one. Wendy, the quilts are beautiful. Where do you find the time? You are so busy with work, sewing and quilts. BTW, I have been thinking a lot about Daniel lately. How is his rehab going? Is the speech getting better and gross motor skills? Our prayers remain for his family and for his recovery.

Hey everyone! I have been MIA for some reason, no good reason, just busy! I have been keeping up with everything but haven't had time to comment.

Welcome back, you were missed. Busy does get in the way of so many things.

I started my TR, including the long-awaited Luke and Tessa meet!

I will make sure to try to read everyones reports as the pictures were all too cute.

Abby found this baseball fleece in the remnants section. I used a Burda pattern to make this hoodie for her.

That is very nice and I see the embroidery machine in the background. What kind of machine do you have? She is adorable and the hoodie is perfect!

That's a great idea! The shirt is great and I am sure the pants will be adorable too!

All of your dresses are just adorable! I love the Mardi Gras one too! Just too cute! Your daughter is a great model too!

billwendy- LOVE the quilts! How cute she looks using it! I just adore the pics of your puppy!

Didn't someone need to make a flower girl dress?!?! How freakin' cute is this???

(btw, this child is family so it's okay that I posted her pic)

That is really cute! LOVE that material

Positive thoughts needed please!!
Last week I had a rheumatoid arthritis blood work. While I was negative for RA I was Positive for the ANA blood test which is inflammation. So it is still possible I have RA. This is going to sound really odd but i am actually happy to possibly be getting some answers. It has been year of going to orthopedics and drs only to be told I don't see anything you are fine. Many Mri's and xrays and test. Some come back with some stuff but nothing to show why my joints hurt and I have swelling as well as numbness. All the drs said I was way to young for RA. Then thankfully my GP who is amazing said sure lets run the blood test it can't hurt ut I doubt it. Then with the positive ANA he said yup very possible go se e a rheumatologist. Which is fine with me because MAYBE just maybe I can get some answer! So for the 1st time in year I am hopefully for relief and don't feel like I am just a whiny lazy person that maybe there is a reason for all my pain! I am a tad nervous it could be lupus too because that is the other big one that comes up with positive ANA. Either way I may have answer which is what I so very need! So if you guys have it in your hearts please hope I finally may have found answers!
