Disboutiquers Part 13 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

[3huskymom]

We leave for my birthday trip to the world Thursday morning and I wanted to get this dress done before we go. We'll be eating at Ohanas on my birthday for breakfast and I wanted to do a Hawaiian print dress for Hayleigh. I like the end product but I didn't not enjoy working with the pattern I had. After making CarlaC's stripwork jumper before this one I think I will be sticking with her patterns and variations of from now on! Hayleigh had to get her 2 Bolts in the pics too. Unfortunately I think Bolt is leaving and she won't be able to meet him. I threw in the pic of the stripwork jumper too b/c I wasn't sure if I had shared that or not!

Cute dresses! I especially love the stripwork one. Have fun on your trip!

Hi Everyone,

Thank you all so much for your very kind words about being a mom - I actually will treasure those for a long time! I really think Im going to try to talk to DH more about it and see what happens....

Here is a purse I made for my MIL - Im not sure about the button - too big? use something different????

When you guys make these purses, what do you think about the straps - they seem kinda wimpish to me just being made out of fabric - thoughts? Also - it said to fold down the top by a half inch etc - -what does the inside look like at the top of yours - pictures anyone??

Also, I think my iron might be going - I noticed a few spots where the fusable fleece didnt seem to "take" - any tips or advice on a new iron?

Jessica - thanks for your thoughts on that sewing machine - Im not sure what to do!!!

Cute purse, the colours are so fun and springy! I think the button is a fine size too.

It feels like forever since I showed off anything I've made. I've been sewing, but I just never seem to have the time to sit down & load any pics (or in some cases even take them - I have no pics of the girls in their Valentine's Day shirts & I really liked how they came out).

Anyway, here's Easter & the egg hunts & the bunnies they got.

We had an egg hunt with one of my bestest friends & her 5 girls. She makes tutus to sell so we got all the girls to wear their tutus for the hunt. It was one of the cutest things ever. There was so much tulle in that yard!

We also had one with the families from out Life Group at church, but they didn't wear the tutus that day.

I got my baby to model for me finally. Big sister's is just like this except it's purple.

The Easter dresses(I love all the dogwood blossoms on the ground - almost looks like snow - except for the cold part):

The bunnies - dd3 got a baby bunny complete with blanket (all of her animals have to have a blanket now) & diaper. DD5 got a big girl bunny, which she promptly informed me was a ballerina bunny (that's also it's name in case you wondered - we're VERY creative with names at our house too ).

Adorable!!!! I wish Carla made all the patterns!!!!!!!

Hey, if you are in the Vineland, NJ and want to check out the Pincushion - guess what - dont go on Sunday - I never gave a thought that it would be closed, talked DH into driving me down there and it was closed!!! Duh on me!!! But hopefully I wil get in there soon!! Cant wait to see it!!!

I've never been ladybug crazy but that dress makes me want a ton of that fabric for one for each of my kids!!!

I love the rabbit dolls, too.

Hello everyone!
I've been lurking for a while and enjoying seeing everyone's beautiful creations. I'm posting using my hubby's screen name, so I am the DW in his siggie! I love to sew for my kiddos, especially dd who is 6, and also smock and do embroidery. We are headed to WDW in 2 weeks and I am trying to work up a few last minute outfits.
I have smocked her a Cinderella dress to wear to Akershus, but just read yesterday that Cindy doesn't often appear there. (no biggie, since we will also be eating at 1900 PF, so she can wear it there) So I am looking to make her something else to wear that evening, but can't decide which princess to go with (she doesn't have a favorite--she likes them all!). Are there any who are there more often than others? I would love for her to have pictures with a princess in a matching dress!
And just one more question, I promise! I am also thinking of appliqueing a few Mickey head tees for DS (age3) and wondered if you all are digitizing those on your own or if the design is available for purchase somewhere. I know I can do them the "old fashioned way" with a satin stich, but the embroidered ones look so nice!
Thanks everyone--and thanks for sharing so many wonderful ideas!!

Hi! I'm back. We had a great time but it was really HOT! The heat was exhausting.

I'm trying to catch up now. The baby photos are all so cute!

And one last picture of Megan, Sammy and Sidney with their AG dolls when we went to AG Boston for Sidney's birthday. I made the round neck tops for all the girls and skirts and peasant tops to completed the doll outfits. Sorry for the odd blurs, but I didn't have their mom's permission to post their pictures.

How was the Natick AG place? What meal did you go for? I'm thinking of taking my DD for her 10th bday in a few weeks.

I lost my quotes & can't remember who was looking for the plus sized maternity clothes. PM me & I can send you photos of what I was getting ready to sell on e-bay. If it's what you're looking for I'd be happy to send it to you!

Belle should be a sure fire bet for Akershus, she is typically the princess you have your picture taken with before entering. Belle wears her yellow dress at Akershus. Snow White and Sleeping Beauty are there more often then not, so they would probably be a safe choice too.

I like the website stitchontime.com, it was recomended by lots of ladies on here for digitized designs, I have purchased a lot of them in the past few weeks and they have stitched out wonderfully. I know a lot of people on here do all of their appliques by hand, and a mickey head isn't too bad by hand, but I am a beginner so I still prefer the embroidery machine applique.

Thanks for the quick reply! Sounds like there is a yellow dress in my future!!
I'll check out that website-its good to know that the designs stich out well before purchasing. I'm probably nuts for trying to get these done at the last minute, but I can't help it! There may be some late nights in the next 2 weeks!

hi all , i am sorry to do such a quick post but my dd mia has been admitted to the hospital and she is most likely diabetic. we went in yesterday morning and it has been very stressful. i had signed up to do crayon rollups for josabbi give. but with the circumstances i didnt finish them. i asked a friend to log in as me on the other board and send a pm, not sure if it worked havent spokent to her. if anyone could help out i think heather is the coordinator. unfortunately the ship date is tomorrow. sorry for the trouble. so sorry i could nt finish them. thanks all. if you wouldnt mind please send up prayers for my mimi she isnt even three and this is such a difficult thing . thanks kim

I hope Mia's doing okay, and you too. That must be very stressful! Thanks for letting someone know about the roll-ups. You are very thoughtful to even be thinking of it when your life is so crazy. Lots of prayers for Mia!

So about a year or so ago I bought this fabric and posted it not knowing what I would make with it, well I finally made something! Lily calls it her "Old Mikadonald" dress. She wore it to church today and I was walking past her classroom and heard them inside singing Old McDonald had a farm so she's workin' it! She loves that song.

Honestly I think my favorite part is the cowprint peasant top! Now I think she needs a purple poodle skirt to go with it! (sorry, just realized the photo is blurry)

I'd love to see the Cinderella dress - my niece loves Cinderella, and we got a breakfast at CRT! I've been trying to find something summer dress-y, but that could be a "princess dress". (Of course, I don't know how to sew, so I've got lots of learning to do!!)

I'm finishing it up now--I'll be sure to post pics when I finish. I mistyped earlier--it actually is an a-line top with matching shorts, not a dress. Cindy and her carriage are smocked on an insert on the top. It is definitely something she will wear to school and other places besides Disney, so we will get lots of "mileage" out of it. Good luck learning--it is truly a wonderful hobby, but addicting!!!
