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

[froggy33]

OMG! Your little one is adorable! You did a fabulous job on all of your outfits. You must do a great job of managing your time with all that you'e doing!

Thanks! Really that is mostly all I have made since November. I guess I did make half a pettiskirt (not exactly what I wanted to, but the wedding was the next day and I had to finish it!), and another strip skirt/hat set. I work on sewing in the evenings after she goes to bed. I am working on a true pettiskirt now! I'm in grad school getting my PhD in biology. The first year is pretty tough with classes, but now that I am in my 5th year and almost done it's really just like a job so not too much take home. I don't see how some of these moms do it though!!

Didn't you have a little girl last summer as well? How is she doing?

My DD9 came home today with a newsletter saying they are going to have immigration day and encourages all kids to dress up like the late 1800's. Does anyone know what that would look like and is it doable for a basic sewer in 2 weeks?

immegration day i nthe 1800's- that means if you think of all the cultures that came here in the 1800s, they were going to be dressed like they would have in their own country- not "americanized" right? so more than just praire stuff, or big pouffy dresses......

I am still back reading page 43, but wanted to reply- this is a cinch! I would suggest doing an asian style. If you check the photobucket you can see my tibetian chupa robes from a children's folkwear pattern- you could order the pattern (which has several cultures) OR you could just take a look around for pajamas that have the manderin collar, and add frogs instead of buttons, and make easy fit pants by carla c- totally doable for a beginner sewer! I know I have seen jammies in this style pattern

Well, my first fabric shopping search was really disappointing. I went to Hancock's and Hobby Lobby and the only Batman fabric was a very large print that wouldn't do very well for a size two little boys pants. I finally got some that I only sorta like at Walmart. I guess it's just as well I haven't had time to try anything yet because Sarah has six more softball games this week. Two each, today, tom, and Saturday. That's on top of the two she had on Monday and one on Tuesday.

I'm still determined to give this a try though. I did get all the things I need to try appliqué per Heathersue's Tutorial.

I do have a cute idea (at least I think so) for a Batman shirt and pants. Just play clothes, not a costume. My grandson (age two and a half) is consumed with Batman right now and about to drive his poor little, eight and a half month pregnant, mama crazy. He has one pair of Batman pjs that he wants to wear ALL the time. He got in trouble with her last week, a rare thing because she has the patience of a Saint with him, and was calling out to Batman "Help me Batman, Mama's gonna 'pank me. (A spanking consists a pat on the behind at most). Poor little sweet boy and poor little sweet mama.

Here is it! The St. Patricks Day outfit! My first 4 piece set! YAY!

I Just love the fabric and I think it came out so green and Irish!! (My husband's side has the Irish....so my husband demands green on St. Patricks Day )

Pose 1:

and trust me, there was many more poses to choose from!

And finally, my first attempt at a round neck that went horribly wrong.....Somehow I think I put the front neck piece on the back and the back on the front!!! I was very fed up by the end of it that I just left it. Needless to say, I did not enjoy that one too much. I don't know, I think the round thing just isn't for me....

very cute

another drive-by post ( but really love the outfits posted!!!)

what a day!!

5 pairs of men's pants hems
2 zippers
1 invisible zipper
2 sundresses
and almost done with Wendy's Feliz

I hope you like this one Wendy!!

my neighbor wanted the same dress without the ruffles

decided to do the back a little different from the other one


Linnette

wow you have been busy! nice work!

So this is what happens at my house when my kids are bored. I think I spent to much time making hair bows today.

Yes the my little pony's are climbing up the side of my fridge.
Did you know they were magnetic?

that is tooo cute

Thanks for the help. Guess I'll hand embroider Thing 1 and Thing 2 on the tummies and their faces, gonna be greedy... I need more help. As I said, I'm not feeling very creative so I'm hoping you guys can help. I'm making 2 Simply Sweets for DD9 and her BF. Had NO luck finding anything Seuss so here is what I've come up with:

The red and white will be the skirt and the black swirl will be the bodice.

Okay, here is where I need help... what to do for the ruffle and the straps. You can't tell from the photos but the torquise fabric is sparkly. What do you guys think? Is the black/white dot too much? Should I reuse the black swirl on the ruffle? Do I need the torquise on the bottom? And the straps? If I use the dots on the ruffle should I reuse it for the straps.

And if that wasn't enough questions for you... I may make them Easy Fit pants to match. What would you make those out of? Thanks a million for your input!!!!

I think that is gonna look good!

and I wanted to share a pic of Rylie!!! I thought she looked so cute!

your DD is very cute I love the outfit!

Hey Y'all if you have time could you say a prayer for my FIL. he lives with us and last night about 11pm he had a heart attack. He is in the cath lab now. He is so hard headed he has been having chest pain for a few days and would not go to the Dr. Thank goodness I talked him in to taking a couple of asprin before he went to bed last night.

Think of you here!

Good Thursday morning to all! I am going to try again to get involved with these threads. I absolutely love them and I post from time to time, but I always get behind so I mostly lurk and try to CASE . I do finally have some things to shard though and I hope to get working on a lot more! But as you all know with grad school and a baby life just sometimes gets in the way of sewing!
So get ready for a lot of pictures!

Christmas Dress:

It was actually for my BILs wedding:

I also made a cape to go with it. Sorry pic is not in color - It was red velvet with a soft fuzzy lining. I want to make one for myself!

Valentine's outfits and pictures! I made the skirt and the hat.

I again made the hat and the apron top.

Okay, the last three are upside down when I preview the post, but are just fine in photobucket. Hopefully they turn out alright when I post it. **They didn't so I uploaded them again! Thanks for looking - now back to catching up!!

so cute! love how she has her tongue out!

Hello! Just taking a mini break from sewing before I have to sit and gather for a million hours! hahahaha I did go ahead and use the rainbow fabric with the strips! It looks great. I think. You guys all rock. Ok off to the machine I go!

 

[minnie2]

I just finished Nik's version of the skirt I made my niece. My niece's went together easy but Nik's gave me so much trouble! UGH Oh well I think it came out cute though and would defiantly make it again but just not in denim and 2 at a time!

Get ready for too many Nikki's! She was doing her best supermodel poses and actually got mad when I stopped taking pictures!

Ok next up I need to make a hat for my nephew! My 1st bucket hat!

Hey friends,

I am sorry no multi quotes this time just a drive by to say hi. I have been working very hard for the past week on an issue we have. My brain is about to throw up but I am about to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Isn't there a joke about it being the train to run me over?

I had a great meeting today and only have to change a few documents. I have to write another set of about 4 pages, then assign the units and services. Afterwards, I have to put about 200 pages all together in the correct format and order. If I do it wrong the entire thing will get rejected. So please say a prayer. I could use it about now as I am very tired.

My real reason for the post is to let you know I took DS stroller out from the garage. It is the first thing I do when getting ready to go to Disney. So I have finally done something other than sew to get ready!

I just love this so much that I wanted to share. I didn't make it - I bought it on Ebay.

That's what I say. Just pick a country and dress up according to their traditional clothes.

Nikki is too funny. I wish I could get my model to do creative poses for me. Cute skirt too.

I HAVE to make this for my son!!! It will be so cute for Disney World. Is there a pattern or is she just that awesome??

Well, she IS that awesome, but she used a pattern. It wasn't a Prince Charming pattern, it was one she changed up a bit. If you look in the Photobucket, she has the pattern listed with the picture.

I

That is our orange tree, for Teresa. Here she is going off to school today. I made a gymboree-like hair thing and put her hair in sock curls last night:

Now I just have to finish my St. Patrick's day dress, which has been sitting almost-done since before I got sick!

Awww, you are so sweet taking a picture of the orange tree for me! Hey, I can give you my grandparent's old address and you can go take a picture of the grapefruit tree for me!!! I'm sure the new peoplde wouldn't mind!

I love the outfit too! Megan looks adorable!!!

Oh my goodness gracious!!! How precious and adorable!!! That dress is gorgeous and your little one is just soooo stinkin cute!!!

Glad to see you on here, we miss you. Did you take Teresa too? She hasn't been on much either!

I've been reading, but I've been feeling fairly horrible for the past week or so, so I haven't commented much. Thanks for missing me!

Just stopping by quickly...I've been so tired today, following last night's little trip to the ER. As poohnpigletCA told her little, "Auntie Darla accidentally got a little sick last night".

My facebook tells the story, but in a nutshell, I (accidentally) injected about 4x more insulin than I needed last night at dinner...ended up in the ER to monitor blood sugar levels...came home after about 4 hours...have had no insulin today...and am exhausted from running high blood sugar all day.

HOWEVER, yesterday before all this occurred, I finished this for a friend:

It has a tie in the back to cinch the waist a little. No pattern...just strips and a bodice
And I love these buttons for embellishment:

That's it. Back to bed for me. Maybe tomorrow I'll be able to finish Fancy Nancy and the 10 matching crayon roll-ups for someone's birthday party.

 

[fairygoodmother]

Okay, before I return to today's lurkdom, I MUST comment. This is so darling. The shirt...is that bias tape sewn on with a blanket stitch? I've never seen that done, and it's sooooo cute!

 

[mickimousemama]

I didn't make an outfit for 100 day's but helped my son paint a shirt I drew out the number 100 on the back and let him put 100 fingerprints with green paint inside the 100. Then he made a necklace using 100 popcan tabs that he could donate at school to the ronald mcdonald house. I did it all the night before because I didn't realise that it was so soon LOL.

This was the tag for the necklace

I'm so excited!!! My day care is taking the last week of April off so that means I have a mandatory vacation. DH's bday is that week so we discussed going to NYC and taking Ash to see a show. So today I got tickets for Little Mermaid through a code of Mousesavers...I got 2nd row center orchestra for $72/piece (if you haven't been to a show it NY that's cheap)

And thanks for Crystal...I already have a custom ready to go!!!
