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

[mommyof3princess]

Finally finished 2 new little sets today... One is BOLT which jojo loves and the other is a simple Elephant dress!!

Lori

Cute as always great job.

I know this is not quite the right place but if you could say a prayer or send a positive thought to my little Hannah I would appreciate it. I just found out her dad is taking her to the emergency room with a severe asthma attack. (I am just sitting here for a little bit before I go to meet them because he is coming from further away so if I leave right now I'll be making myself crazy in the waiting room).

Marah Prayers and for hannah.

Hey Lori ~ by chance did you also make a nemo dress with orange trim and had NEMO across the bodice?

I think I saw that *somewhere* and JOJO looks a lot like the same little girl

I thought that was an adorable Nemo dress
I was kicking myself because all of Savannah's dresses had already been ordered for this trip

oh yes... that is me!!! and the Bolt is there too now!

Absolutely Adorable Lori!! Just LOVE that JoJo - does she ever not want to model for you?

oh she loves to model that girl..... she always says yes and never needs something to bribe her with anymore!!

 

[eeyore3847]

Too cute! I esp. love the Bolt outfit- it's fab!

Thank you!

Hoping everything is ok ..... praying for you

Those are both so cute, and I love JoJo's puppy dog face! I don't know how you have made so many cute dresses so fast, you must be working on the record for most dresses in a week!

You know I can make those dresses rather quick now..... which means I can get more done!

Cute as always great job.

Thank you thank you!!! I really like how this one turned out

Awww, I hope she is fine and at home by now.

Hey guys. everyone has posted some great stuff. All the wonderful applique tees reminded me that never shared the tee that I did the other day.

It took me 3 hours to do, but i am really pretty happy with it. I got it centered on the tee, and there was only one boo-boo on the shoe which I was able to trim down and fix after I snapped the pic. I am really starting to get the hang of the new achine and I am getting comfortable with it. I am sooo glad I waited and got the Singer with the 5x7 hoop rather than gettng the brother with the 4x4 hoop.

Very cute! I have that applique but haven't made it yet. I have lots of applique patterns that I haven't used yet! It is kind of like a fabric addiction!

And I agree, you need at least a 5x7 hoop size!

I love hearing all the family stories that you have uncovered!

 

[princessmom29]

Looks great even the shoes Just wondering which Singer did you get?? Was it the Futura??

I got the Futura ce-150. I needed one that was vista compatible and I only wanted it for embroidery as i have a noce electronic sewing machine. The only idference I could find between it and the 250 was that the 250 had more sewing features and in some cases came with more software. I got a package deal form HSN that came with all the software.

I just went into a quilt shop today and I remember seeing these fabrics.

Let me rephrase that: I believe that I saw these. I wasn't really looking for those, but I remember seeing some that looked that those. I can check again if you would like.

That would be AWESOME!!! I have to get my hands on this fabric! Let me know if you did find it. Thanks.

 

[Tinka_Belle]

That would be AWESOME!!! I have to get my hands on this fabric! Let me know if you did find it. Thanks.

I am sorry, I called all of the quilt stores around here and they all said that that fabric sold out a long time ago. They all seemed a little disappointed about that too. I did find some Moda fabric that I have to have. Sorry I couldn't find it.

We're home now and she's okay. Her biodad just totally overreacted. Ugh, out until after midnight with little ones is no fun. She came back with us and is doing fine.

(She has had severe asthma since she was a baby, and is hospitalized multiple times a year for it, so it isn't anything "new" for us).

Glad she is ok, did they use a nebulizer? My oldest has a form of asthma and I have been through the drill more times than I can count

I am so happy to hear that she is doing better. I am sure that you are relieved.

No she had done a breathing treatment at her dad's (she cannot be anywhere there isn't a nebulizer machine. I also keep steroids on hand at all times as well as her rescue inhaler). I met them in the lobby of the hospital and did her pulse ox and peak flow (we have both machines) and both were fine. They took her back to check both just in case, both were okay, her pulse was just high.

Her asthma doc thinks she may be having migraines. I guess when little ones have migraines they get all the "other" effects (upset stomach, extreme tiredness, etc) but not the head pain. It can even take a few years for their heads to start hurting with it. But she is so used to the asthma making her stomach upset I think she just assumes that's what's going on.

Her biodad just isn't as used to dealing with it as we are so to him she was 'having trouble breathing' and 'her lips were a funny color." Um, she looked okay, just tired and like she didn't feel well!

But I guess better safe than sorry!

 

[emcreative]

Oh yeah and in talking her today I discovered that during the field trip to the zoo today, one of the parents seemed to think it was okay to walk from the bus into the zoo right next to my daughter SMOKING THE WHOLE FREAKING TIME! What part of "severe asthma" does the school not understand?!?! (She can't even go outside if it's under a certain temperature).

I feel a bit lady doggish but I really think I need to write to the teacher and the principal and tell them it is NOT acceptable for a parent to smoke on a field trip!!

AHH the lovely peak flows
That and orepred LOL
My son has restrictive pulminory disease so yup been through it all. he has been in the hospital 8 times and he will be 15 in a few weeks. The croup lands his behind in ICU every time
We have 3 nebulizers currently LOL Its like I collect them
One thing that has REALLY helped him is the advair. He rarely has trouble anymore but he takes that twice a day...

Yep, you know what it's like. Not including the NICU time when she was born, Hannah has been hospitalized almost 15 times in 8 years, and probably to the ER (without being admitted) at least 20. UGH.

She started Symbicort 2x a day (instead of flovent) and that really seems to help in her day to day management. HOWEVER I dont' know if it's because of the Symbicort or just a change in her, it seems like when she does have an attack now, it's a lot harder and she bottoms out really fast compared to before on the flovent.

I would definitely report her. I would heavily stress the importance of this matter. Isn't someone supposed to be watching what the parents are doing on these trips. I know that when I helped on a field trip I was given a list of things that we were not supposed to do and not smoking was one of those.

Yup ~ more than familiar LOL
It was one of the reason the swine flu was making me really nervous.... the regular flu he is in the hospital. WE always do the flu shot

Hi! I'm totally new to this thread and to this whole site. I just started trying to make my girls boutique clothes, b/c I love the style but not the price! Anyways, I'm completely obsessed with Disney too. We're not going back to Disney until Feb. 2010, but being the big planner I am I already started searching for outfit designs I would like to make them. So I typed in google Disney boutique outfits and this was one of the first sites that popped up! It actually brought me to the first thread on this subject. It has taken me 3 days to read the first one! It wasn't until I reached the end that I realized there was more then one thread! So I just jumped to the end. As interesting as this thread is, I just don't have the patience to read it all from the beginning! I couldn't believe yall were on thread 13! I have found so many cute ideas for my kids outfits from just the first thread. My hubby thinks I'm crazy for wanting to make all 3 of my kids an outfit for each day. But I'm so excited! I like so many designs though I don't know how I'm going to narrow it down. And I know by next Feb. I'll have found a ton more thanks to this site! Well I just wanted to say hi to everyone, and expect to see me A LOT on this thread! lol
~Jennifer

Welcome! I am pretty new too and I must say this is an awesome group.
Hugs, Kristi

 

[kmbyoung94]

This is my first time posting! I would like to tell everybody I love all the sewing you guys do! I started sewing a year ago and now I'm really in love with making dresses for my daughter! And she loves them too! I'll post some pictures of my sewing later! Thanks for all the ispirational sewing projects they really make me want to expand my horizons!

Do you have as much fun watching her eyes light up as I do when my 3 year old daughter gets a new outfit. She runs over and tells me "Mommy, I know you love me!" That is the best ever!

I am so glad you DD is ok! Glad it wasn't as bad as her dad thought!!!
That is crazy about the school letting a parent smoke on a trip1. Sadly I have come to realize schools stink! My kids school is AWFUL with her Celiac and now I am fighting wit them again. Kyle had a fever last week so I took him to the dr the dr cleared him with a not and said he is fine. Send him back. Well the school tells me he can't come back for 7 days! because he had a FEVER! They tell me this 5 minutes before I am to leave to get my kids to school. So I question the nurse about some things she gets all flustered and hangs up on me and calls my mom! Freaks her out think one of the kids are bloody in a ditch and not that I am tick and asking questions that the nurse can't answer and won't get them for me. I talked to the principal things are smoothed over but I still can't stand either of them for many reason. Then I get a call Nikki has a fever! take her to the dr dr say send her back once fever is gone 24 hours. But the school says Nope needs to be a week! So she is home until next Friday! UGH! The school could care less about her chronic condition but strong holds a fever. they are killing me! If I thought the education they where giving my kids was fabulous I could deal wit stupidity but it isn't. UGH!!!!
Oh and the best part is my Aunt and Uncle are visiting from Scotland this weekend so they get to come to the sick house! I feel so bad.


Sewing Question ShirringI did the whole wind the elastic on the bobbin by hand but it didn't work could I ave no wound it tight enough???? I really want to learn how to do this!

 

[reservations4five]

Hi Guys!!! Just wanted to say that I am a longtime lurker. I have been enjoying ya'll creations for awhile now. I took the plunge a few months ago and obtained a sewing machine.

Then I took on a project way to big for my sewing skills. LOL

Got mad at myself and said machine and put it in the closet.

So now I am going to try again. Smaller on the project level. I am thinking of some pilowcase tops for my dd's. I think I should be able to handle these.

I love making hairbows. I like to create period. I just get flustered.
