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

[bear_mom]

From a mostly lurker (I try to keep up, I really do), from MI.

If you can , please, please say a prayer for our family. I am not allowed to discuss what is going on right now but I am in tears and need some major prayers. Please. I am very emotional right now and do not know how much more I can take. I know I haven't met most of you but I feel like I know all of you and I know you care. Thank you.

Prayers and positive thoughts.

Emily

Ok, here is my alice version of the precious dress:

I love this pattern. I truly didn't think I could do collars and sleeves, but it was not as bad as i thought.
I this readily recognizable as Alice? I thought mabye it needs to be a little shorter. What do you guys think? I will porbably wait to closer to the trip to hem it up more incase she hits a growth spurt.

This is the perfect Alice dress! I have a Cheshire Cat purse (looks like a stuffed animal with a zipper in its back) that I picked up at a garage sale for our someday-to-be-adopted little girl. I was wondering what pattern to use to make an Alice dress to go with it and this is perfect! One more pattern to add to my CarlaC wishlist!!

That sounds soo cute. It came with the apron part of the pattern, and I added the pinafore part on top. It was just a square and some strips for straps.

Thanks all for the feedback on my Alice dress!!!!

Prayers said for all that need them

Okay, so Sydni wanted me to show all of the ladies on the disney board her handstands! So here she is in all of her handstand glory!

Well, Rylie could not be left out, so here she is doing her "fip"

Great tumbling in your house! Good job! And thank you for sharing and you are right...they are too cute to not share!!!

VERY NICE!!! I love it!!!

Bought the rotary cutter, mat and ruler. YIKES! Had no idea they were going to be such an investment!! I bought the big mat and the super nice lady at Hobby Lobby offered me her 40% off coupon. YAY! Now to read up and figure out how to use the darn thing without cutting off my hand.

Ahhh the best investment every! You really will wonder what you ever did without them!

I'm always around...just in lurker mode these days!!

Okay Disboutiquers...I have a quick request for prayers/good thoughts! My little step daughter is having surgery tomorrow,(Thursday), at 12:30pm East Coast time. It's nothing real big or life threatening but she is having general anesthesia and that always makes me nervous. She's having a cyst like thing removed from an area above her upper lip. You can't see it at all when you look at her, but it causes her to bite her lip a lot. We were told it should come out. She had surgery to have this thing removed for the second time last week. The first time she had this done two years ago the doctor doing it had no business doing that kind of surgery. At all. He admits this. He's not a surgeon. He said it was a quick in office "procedure". Not so much. He made a terrible mess of it, Sally had a post op infection and he didn't get all of it. We went to a plastic surgeon for this go round b/c the cyst had grown back. Apparently it's a very tricky little thing to get out. After the pathology report came back last week the surgeon discovered he didn't get all of it b/c some of the cyst was in the facial muscle. This makes the surgery much more complicated and poor Sally will have quite a bit more pain in recovery.

anyhow...I would appreciate any good thoughts and/or prayers. I love this little girl so much and it kills me that she is having to go through this a third time. My biggest prayer will be that the surgeon will get EVERYTHING and we can leave this behind us for good. This is a heck of a way for Sally to end her spring break, but she is being such a little soldier.

Thanks everyone. Much appreciated!

Miss Cammie---Prayers said!

Prayers for you and your family...prayers for strenght to get you thru this and support from all of us when you need it!

Funny!

And T - love the pic of baby! Soo sweet!

And---I want to totally case Little's outfiit for AK? Is that okay?

Prayers for you family.
and to Sally. Praying for her tomorrow.

I have been sewing today... I love it when that happens
Two pairs of pj pants for DS...

The flannel is super soft. I want some for myself...maybe not the same prints

and a pair of cropped pants for DD from the stretch denim I got from the remnant rack. I added some decorative cording..or what ever you want to call it. I think it turned out pretty cute.

I think I might be addicted to that Easy Fit pattern.

PJ look totally comfy! I want some too! And I like the denim pants too!



And to answer the question...I am in NC...just north of Charlotte.

 

[Twins+2more]

thoughts and prayers for those in need.

I live in north west ohio.

Congrats to our 4 pregnant boardies.

I was just skimming over and really want to send out hugs to everyone that needs them. I am thinking of all you and praying for good outcomes.

I am in NJ, about 45 minutes from Philly and 55 minutes from my second favorite place in the world Ocean City. But apparently according to findyourspot.com I should live in North or South Carolina, because most of the towns it picked for me were in those states.

 

[sweetstitches]

Your daughter looks adorable!

I have shipped down packages for our last two trips. It is so easy to do. I shipped down DD clothes, costumes, and most of our shoes. It left a lot of empty space in extra suitcase for souvenirs for the trip home. This last trip at Christmas time, I shipped down DD clothes, toiletries and shoes. I put the box in the closet and used it for our dirty clothes, then when it was time to check out, I taped up the box, went to the front desk and shipped home our dirty clothes. I used the UPS store at home for shipping, they box and ship and it was not costly at all. About what you would pay to check a piece of luggage. Depends on the weight but this year it was about $27.00. It usually takes about a week from NJ to ship to FL. But take in to account any holidays that may delay shipping by a day or so. Plus with UPS you can track and know exactly when your package arrives.

How do you label the box? Do you put your arrival date on it? Do you notify the hotel ahead of time?

[my*2*angels]

Thank you!

Oh my goodness Sydni that is FANTASTIC!!!! You are an expert handstander!!!

And, that driver's license is really cool! Where did you get that? Arminda and Lydia would love it!

Rylie!! GREAT FLIP!!! You go girl!

I read this to Sydni and she is just beaming! She told me to send you back a letter and tell you thank you and that she got her drivers license at Chuck E Cheese yesterday!

Great tumbling in your house! Good job! And thank you for sharing and you are right...they are too cute to not share!!!

Thanks so much! I had to read everyone's responses to her and she is walking around smiling from ear to ear!

Love those pictures! It is so cute when little ones show off like that!

Oh and we have the original version of the Princess tv. The one with the Purple mickey ears. I LOVE IT! The kids got a new tv from Santa this yr but I refuse to get rid of the pink Mickey TV! Nikki also has the fairies DVD player which is adorable! I Love the wand remote!

Thank you! I love that T.V. but we have had it for awhile and Sydni has tried to use it herself since she was little and now the DVD player does not work! We need to get another, but my kids don't watch TV very often!

Wow, can she come over and teach Megan? Megan just started a cheerleading class and they are trying to teach her handstands and cartwheels. The girls look so cute together!

Sydni said she would love to come over and do gymnastics with Megan! She just started in January, but wants to be a cheerleader sooooo bad!!! She will be old enough to cheer for the little league this season and I can't wait! Take some pics of Megan in her class so we can see!!!

I'm always around...just in lurker mode these days!!

I need help from all you professional seamstresses!!!!
When you are putting a double ruffle on the bottom of a dress, how do you do it? As far as the length of the ruffles and spacing between the top and bottom ruffle! I have never done his before, and I am working on something for my etsy shop, so I want it to be PERFECT!(like that can ever happen!)
