Disboutiquers Part 15 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

[3huskymom]

The stripwork jumpers and AG doll dress are SO cute! Plus, the canopy bed reminds me of the bed Teresa and I used to have!

Ok, I had no idea until this that you and Teresa were sisters! How cool!

 

[HeatherSue]

I am just so proud!!!!

I have suspected something was on Morgan's mind the last few days.

She just shared with me what she is thinking-She wants to have a little "walk a thon" to raise money for "Her babies" still at her baby house in China. Her goal is to raise $200 to buy them books and toys. "Mommie, they don't have any toys! And no books either!"

I love that kid!

That's my little !!! I would love to help out her babies! Just let me know when she starts taking donations!

I LOVE IT! It's so original! I love the belly panel. It keeps it authentic, yet modest!

and she'll love it because it makes her look like she's wearing Ariel's "****ie bra" as she calls it. Sigh....

Julie

That cracks me up! What a funny little girl!

Yes, we're the "Dorky Disboutiquing Disa Sistas" and we're best friends, too!! We used to share a bed and I used to kick her all night. But, she still loves me!

Mcdonalds is going to be offering American Girl Happy Meals after teeny beanies.

It looks like the toy is a mini book with tiny little paper dolls. And for those that don't or can't eat at Mcdonalds-you can buy the toy withou the meal.

 

[HeatherSue]

You posted that JUST for me, didn't you? My question to you is, do they have buck teeth?

OK - finally - Ariel!

Shannon you ROCK! I love that! Will you mind sharing how you did that bottom ruffle?

Ok, I had no idea until this that you and Teresa were sisters! How cool!

They are very loving sisters! It is very heart warming to see sisters that are so close!!!

No! Now see, you were not even supposed to READ it. It says AG moms. LOL These look like inncoent little BOOKS. Mickey D's is advocating READING. That is good thing right?

 

[KARAJ]

I would not suggest using stabilizer unless you've tested it in the wash first. I have no idea how well it holds up and I'd hate for you to find out it wasn't right after the first wash.

What I do if I don't have interfacing is to use a sturdy cloth, such as Kona Cotton or broadcloth. It gives extra body/support where it's needed without being too stiff. Just make sure you finish any edges that are left loose.

I thought I said thank you so much last night but I guess not, so..... THANK YOU!

 

[revrob]

That is so adorable! I am so impressed! It looks just like Ariel but keeps the twirly dress that the girls love. Is that flesh-colored material in the middle section? I had to look twice to see if it were fabric or not.

I would love to do a simple blue Cinderella dress with the side peplums like the ones on this dress. These are about the length I was thinking of. Did you just draw out your own pattern for the side peplums?

Um... I just sorta winged it. I started with the same width as the skirt and the longest part is about 5-6" long and I sorta drew a line from the long end tapering down. I just did what looked right in my mind. It was pretty simple though!

This is awesome!!! I can't wait to show my little Emily. The will LOVE the flesh colored belly. I know..this gorgeous dress and the darling peplum, ruffle, shells..and she'll love it because it makes her look like she's wearing Ariel's "****ie bra" as she calls it. Sigh....

Julie

I'm so glad you like it! I hope Emily loves it as well! Your shell design really made the bodice come to life in my opinion. I made a mock up before this version and it was just missing something. When I added the shells, it really came to life, I think!

Oops, in my previous post, I quoted the wrong post. This is the one I was commenting on. I'm sorry; I'm still trying to get the hang of quoting!

No problem! I figured it out!

I LOVE IT! It's so original! I love the belly panel. It keeps it authentic, yet modest!

Thanks! Modest was a MUST for me. I think it sorta says what I wanted it to say - ARIEL, but in little girl style!

Yes, we're the "Dorky Disboutiquing Disa Sistas" and we're best friends, too!! We used to share a bed and I used to kick her all night. But, she still loves me!

Isn't that sweet?

Shannon you ROCK! I love that! Will you mind sharing how you did that bottom ruffle?

Thanks so much! The bottom ruffle was a little difficult. I'm not completely pleased with the way it came out. Mainly because underneath it doesn't look as neat as I like. Basically, it is a giant ruched ruffle. I did a rolled edge hem on both sides of the strip, and then ruffled about an inch from the top and then attached to the bottom of the fabric edge. I think the next round I'll do a large ruffle and do a ruched slim ruffle over the top to give a similar effect, but will be neater on the underside.


THANKS to EVERYONE on the sweet comments about the dress. I know I missed some in the quotes - but I want you all to know how much I appreciate your kind words!

Yes, we ARE so cool!

She hit me too.(Only while she was sleeping though!) And, she use to make this horrible noise in her throat. But I still love her!

I was giong to post the same thing about the bed. It brought back memories. We had Hobby Hobby bedding on ours. (or, Holly Hobby for those of you who didn't have a little sister who couldn't say it right)

I adore Heather, and I have to say I get very emotional thinking about how much I love her! I miss her terribly though! I haven't seen her in about two weeks! I was in Toledo, then Lydia got sick last week. But I WILL make it to Pizza Night tonight!!

And, just cause I'm babbling, I'll tell you all. My family gets together every Friday night for pizza. Our brother and his wife and girls comes too. It's so much fun!

OOOOH!!! I SO ESITED!!!!!!

(while I'm in the explaing mode, I'll explain that that is what Corey use to say when he was very little!)

You posted that JUST for me, didn't you? My question to you is, do they have buck teeth?

Oh hush up!

Don't listen to her people, she doesn't like dolls!

Seriously though, did you see that Teeny Beanie Ronald McDonald??? THAT is freaky!

They are very loving sisters! It is very heart warming to see sisters that are so close!!!

Aww, Marlo, thanks!

What about sealing the ruffle so there is a seam so it is a giant tube then doing the gathering about an inch from the top?

I also really like the slim ruffle idea t the seam too...

I miss you, too!

Just the thought of a Teeny Beanie Ronald McDonald strikes fear into my heart!

No! Now see, you were not even supposed to READ it. It says AG moms. LOL These look like inncoent little BOOKS. Mickey D's is advocating READING. That is good thing right?

I couldn't help myself!

I had Hobby Hobby bedding, too! And I like pizza and need a family. Will you adopt me?

 

[Mommy2JulietJocelyn]

Oh, I didn't make them. I made a Halloween skirt once but I couldn't make these.

They are still wonderful youever made them AND she is just adorable! - I am loving Snow White & Mulan!

 

[JUJU814]

Thanks! Modest was a MUST for me. I think it sorta says what I wanted it to say - ARIEL, but in little girl style!

Modest is a MUST for us too...this is just perfect!! I LOVE your use of my shells design! How special!!!! Then there'll be a tiny portion of the dress that I sorta "made" (well, digitized..LOL)

I love how you ladies say things like "uh, I dunno, I sorta just winged it..." "oh ya know, just drew a line here...separated this, added this, sorta swooped this". I just shake my head...it sounds like rocket science to me!!! LOL Nervous nellie me is like "is there a pattern for this? a pattern for that? I need a pattern for this bodice..is there a pattern for a peplum?" LOL

I nailed down my main fear. CUTTING the fabric and messing it up. I'm even afraid of my babylock evolve serger. It's like this shiny monster sitting there waiting to go "BOO!!!"

Ok..off to get the kids from VBS then back home, then BACK to VBS tonight!

Julie

 

[karebear1]

Yes, we ARE so cool!

Really Teresa........... She said it was cool that you were sisters. Interpretting that to "we ARE cool" is really stretching things!

 

[aimeeg]
