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

[MinnieVanMom]

Hi Friends,

Well my luck keeps getting better. DS school called at 11 am and said he has been sick all day and is now sleeping, come get him. So I have him home. He doesn't have a fever or even looks sick. I don't have a clue, other than we have had a bit of a cold the past week. I am sure hoping he is up to flying tomorrow. I am going to give him Tylenol and pray whatever it is goes away so he will feel more like himself. Poor little guy.

I was reading in the SN section, posts by a person named Berries. She was so scared and nervous. I contacted her and today have been searching the Disigners to get shirts made for her and her SN DD. I have the designs but we are having a problem getting the shirts. I am going to bring the transfers printed out to Disney and try to go shopping for shirts in Orlando before meeting this family. It is like a little give.

As you all know, I didn't have my departure date correct so I am still cleaning. I did buy black fabric and will make DS shorts this evening.

Thank you, Crystal, Linnette, Minnie2, Wendy, and all my friends for your support this past week and a half. The project was finished late last evening and the meeting is Thursday. I won't be attending because I will be in Disney.

DH likes Kaelyn (but we were going to do this last time and went with Megan instead- I feel like they sound too similar)
He also likes Kathryn (WHO spells it that way!)
I like Elizabeth, but he doesnt.
he likes Rachel.
I like Anna.
maybe Kaitlyn- but its very popular.
I love old names, he doesnt
he doesnt like names with too many syllables (I think he prefers 2, maybe 3)

Hey my given name is Kathryn, I go by Kathy. My parents wanted to name me that so my mom asked my dad how he would spell it. This is how he spelled it, of course most of the time my dad calls me Kathy Jo. I've never been really fond of my middle name and I think he does it just to bug me.

That is one cute family! I love all the snow pictures. Good for your daughter making the game. When I was about her age I made Civil War Gin Rummy. I was so proud of that game and I think I still have it!

Hello all! Just lurking today because I am

Feel better soon!

I was really shocked at how grown up she looked! I was so happy that she picked this dress, because it was more "little girly" to me. Then, she ended up looking so grown up. I just can't win! I love Lydia's dress too! I think it still looks good 5 inches shorter! That child grows and grows and grows!

They are so rude how they insist on growing, aren't they? I keep telling them to stop and then they laugh at their crazy mother.

Hope your Grandma is ok!

These are all very nice, even though I don't know anything about Twilight. Very cool!

Hope he feels better tomorrow, riding in an airplane when you're not feeling so hot is no fun! Hope you get everything done!

I have had a hard time keeping up with you guys this weekend.
Tons of great stuff. And I love all the snow pics!

I finally got things organized and can post some of the things I got at sew expo.....

the fabric I came home with....

Brown is for the castle tote bag...I thought it could pass for a stone wall
Red is for the outside of my laptop sleeve (my laptop is red ) and the print that looks like a keyboard is for the inside of hubby's laptop sleeve - he said it wanted it all black, inside and out and I just can't do that so I thought this was fun... when I showed it to him he laughed and said "yeah, ok".

the patterns I bought....

The pillow pattern I almost bought last year but talked myself out of, and wished I hadn't so it was the first thing I bought this year
And the apron I have been thinking about for a while now, but could only find it online. One of the girls in the booth was wearing one she had made and I got to look at it and decided to go for it.

fat quarters etc.....

The little hands are DD2, she just can't keep her hands off this stuff
I have always thought about buying a charm pack and never had so this year I went for it. The price was good and I thought the colors would be fun for DD this spring. And the fat quarter bundle is from a place in CA called pincushion boutique. They have the greatest fat quarter bundles ("Sweet treats" they call them), wonderful colors put together. Last year I bought a bundle and almost couldn't bring myself to use it cause it looked so nice all packaged up.... this brown and teal set I plan to use some of for the debut purse from YCMT.

I also picked up a few hot fix motifs, but I didn't take pictures of..... my favorite looks like the Dairy Queen logo, but says Drama Queen for some reason it just cracks me up.

We finally have dates set for a LATE Christmas with my Dad and Step mom so now I need to get sewing! the kids want to give them chef's hats. Then I can get started on the laptop sleeves and try out the the carlac peasant top pattern - I finally bought it .

A friend of mine asked me to make some "Elmo" pants for her son's 2nd birthday and this is what I came up with. I made the Elmo's out of some really cool fuzzy red material that totally sheds all over the place when cut. Haha. It makes for a very cool looking Elmo though. To make the pants kinda funky and different, I made a big Elmo and appliqued it to the "butt" of the pants... There is also a smaller Elmo on the right leg in front. My friend loved them but not as much as her son did...hahaha.

Here is her little guy and yes, she gave me permission to share his pictures!!



First post here, can't resist a crafting thread and .. so funny I see this photo, we have the same internet friend, I have sewn some items for her too. Baby slings..

I'm going to keep browsing for ideas to make disney outfits for my girls.

My cute family

And as an aside, my DD10 has worked all weekend making up a board game to go with her latest book, Peter and the Starcatchers. Here it is in different stages of doneness. Still gotta print out and laminate the question cards. She actually did the whole thing by herself. She planned it all out and painted everything all by herself. Can you tell I am so proud of her!

OK everyone...have a great day...I am off to sew (without my ruffler)

Aww love the snow pics!!! Wow, look at your adorable DD with her own game board. That is so cool!!!! Tell her I think that is just awesome!!!

Oh nooo, I sure hope your little guy is feeling better SOON!!!!!

Hey Linnette..sorry you have a headache, hope you are feeling better now! Those pants and shirt are cute, I am sure he will love them.

 

[MouseTriper]

I'm at our local hospital, waiting for them to treat my grandma (I think she's okay, she just got scared with some chest pain this morning). The internet connection here makes me sign an agreement every time I try to multi-quote, so I'll have to do this the old fashioned way!!

Oh no, how is your grandma?? Is she feeling better? I hope she is alright and is back at home by now.

 

[HeatherSue]

My grandma is fine!

She was nauseus and then her heart rate went way up (according to my mom). So, we thought we should take her in. Her heartrate was fine while we were there. They did all sorts of tests and x-rays and decided that she just has a virus.

i have been to Forks on stephenie meyer day(sept 13th) and if you love the books you should definately try to get there i am going again this yr It has turned into my yearly get away from now on i think my hubby is getting used to my twilight obsession I have even taken it to a sewing level i sew aprons inspired by the book ...
love all things twilight Are you Team Edward or Team Jacob?

I love the aprons!! Your appliques look great!
Team Jacob? Is anyone on Team Jacob?

oh please post pics of the aprons, I would love to see them. I've read all the books but can't claim to be obsessed. I have to admit I'm team Jacob. I don't want my man to feel hard and cold. My SIL is a feak about the books and movie. She is Team Edward and says the books saved her marriage!

Team Jacob, really? Seriously, I don't belong to either team. I'm just picking on you!

I hope your headache doesn't get too bad this time.
The Big Give outfit looks really nice!! How flattering that your stepson even liked it!

Thanks for the update on Grandma! I'm glad she is fine. Sorry you had to spend the day at the hospital.

 

[MouseTriper]

Here is what I came up with for "Little Warrior's" Big Give. I sure hope Marenna likes it. Does it look okay?

I had made some of these for my DD for our last trip to WDW. Here she is "dancing in the streets" after watching the Block Party at MGM...hahaha.

Alice's

Here is her Crystal Ball applique

I am working on getting a few more pictures up for emmett's, rosalie,Bella ,esme and Carlilse

These are awesome, I especially love Alice's! Can't wait to see the rest.

Very cool! Not sure if I could get all the way there but it was sure cool checking everything out on line!
I am almost done with book 2 ad while I think Edward is very cool and I would like him as a friend but as a boyfriend he is kind of obsessive and it freaks me out! Jacob is great in this book! I really like him a lot! Though watching some trailers on youtube for the movie I might end up liking Edward in the movie but I don't know!
I want a friend like Alice! She is great!!!!!!

Ok I seriously need my mind out of the gutter after reading your post! LOL

Those are GREAT! I love Carlilse and Esme! I can't wait to see what you make for them!
Ok if you like vampires have to read the Southern Vampire series by Charlene Harris? MUCh more adult then Twilght MUCH more but I Eric from those books! The tall viking Vampire!

Too funny! I would like to reply but since this is a family site... I'll bite my tongue!

My grandma is fine!

So glad your your Grandma is fine. So what are you trying to say about Jacob? I admit the actor they chose for the movie is NOT what I imagined as I read the books. And Edward is creepy in his protectiveness. I need my space, can you imagine sewing with him leering over you!!??

SO..... someone else finally got snow and we didn't!!! YIPPEEEE for you guys! I LOVE this snowman...... he's hysterical! Cute pics!

Oh Heather! I'm so relieved to hear that Grandma is ok. It can really be scarey -but lucky for you that you live near by so you can be there for her. That probably makes hard thigns a little less hard - huh?? Anyway... glad to hear all is ok!!



A little side note..........


Hi Teresa!!!! I haven't spoken to you for a while, and I'm feeling bad about it, but I did want you that I'm thinking about ya!! Hugs for you too!!!

Linette- I sure hope you feel better -I dont like it when you have your headaches!!

Mousetripper - LOVE the outfit!!! So cute!!

Well, after a day of walking around in the COLD but seeing some really cool stuff - DH is exhausted - he was looking at the falls all lit up and the next thing I know...he is zonked!!

So here I am so everybody post stuff!!! lol!!

Here are a few pics from our wonderful day -
We went down this elevator to UNDER THE FALLS!!!!! Here they are up close and personal -

In the summer, you can get closer - but right now this view was frozen!

THese are the horseshoe falls -

Right now the bottom is all frozen and frosty - in the olden days people used to walk across this!!!!

Standing on the rim -

THe view and sound is AMAZING!!

Its so cold the mist freezes to everything! But makes cool rainbows!!

Did I tell ya that on Friday night when packing, DH took my coat OUT of the car!!!???? Yep, no coat when we got to NY!!! So, we had to find a walmart and get me a jacket (of course no one has coats left - I could have gotten a swim suit though!!) but at least it was lined!!

Well, Back home tomorrow - we are leaving here early cause we think we will have to shovel out when we get home!!

 

[Stephres]

Your fabric is so cute; I don't blame you for giving in!

I hope your headache is better now. Love your big give outfit and how neat that it was admired!

My grandma is fine!

Yay! I know anything about this Team Edward and such, but I think I will have to be on Team Jacob!

So cute, I love it! Have I told you, you take the best pictures?

Well, guess what died today? My dryer! Argh! So we just spent 2 hours in Sears and I will have a new washer and dryer delivered Friday. Tom told me I have to get a job.

 

[Twins+2more]

hi friends.

Sorry Im not on here like I used to be, but my oldest has been going thru some "things" lately. Its super frusterating and trying. I swear I sometimes don't know what im doing wrong, and others know that its just a "thing"
we are going thru. It is sometimes soo hard to keep faith that god would do all this to my daughter...know what I mean. But just imagine how it would be if she was with birth mom, and we would not have got her at an early age. And my twins are not doing so well in kindergarten. We are trying to get them tested, and on an IEP. We've been so busy.

I have not sewed anything in AGES, but Ive been watching all of you push things out at lightning speed. Love some of the new "creations" you all rock.

Cathy, I love your snow man. It looks like frosty melted...LOL. Your daughters are really growing.

Linnette, your ruffles look great on the pink dresss, and bless your sould for doing someones wedding dress. I do hope you had the courage and smarts to say no to the mother dress and invites. You do so much for others, god bless you.

anyhow, look ... we only have 2 months till our vacation. The first ever disney vacation for all of us. Im going to try to get some customs done for the girls, but if you see me at disney world, and my girls have on street clothes please don't spear me...LOL. We just paid for our flights with income tax. WOO HOO. now we just have to pull together food money, and the easter bunny is bringing the girls disney dollars to spend in the "world". Im getting excited....

i've talked enough I think. YOu all have a good week.
