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

[lovesdumbo]

OK, So I am going to put a few pics from our trip a 2 weeks ago and 1 from my baby girls B-Day. No real great outfits here so feel free to skim on by!! I will probably post a couple more as I find the pics in the other outfits.

This is my babies 1st B-Day obligatory Cake shot!!

This is my two oldest Arianna in The Pirate outfit, Ares The Boy, and my niece Jordynn.

At it's tough to be a bug

Meet-up in Animal Kingdom with Jordynn, Arianna, DH John, Ares and Kaylynn

And at some place eating, I just love the way this shows Kaylynn's red hair and blue eyes.

Cute photos! Where is the Pocahontas meet & greet? That looks new-I've always seen her at Rafiki's Planet Watch.

Got a little Tinkerbell dress finished last night.

Adorable! I haven't seen that Tink fabric before.

There were so many I couldn't get a good close up

These are just adorable and I love them on the green!

I LOVE this fabric!!! Where did it come from???

Mirandag did you digitize those designs for the HS dress yourself??? If not do you mind sharing your source?? I absolutely love that outfit!!!

Awwww..... this is so cute! Where did you find this fabric?

Thanks for all the compliments and I am afraid I am going to have to disappoint you on the origin of this fabric. You see, a friend is pregnant with a baby girl and has done everything in the nursery in Tinkerbelle, so I thought "wouldn't it be nice if I could sew her something Tinkerbelle?" Now, I can't get liscensed fabric around here, and the Tink from the pillowcases it too big for a little dress like this, so I thought all was lost. Anyway, one day last week I was walking thru Walmart and saw Scrubs in this fabric on Clearance. It was only a Ladies XS, but plenty of fabric for this and maybe one other project in the future.

Ok, no laughing.............

Can someone explain Wi fi to me please? I am leaping out of the stone age and getting a laptop.

I am laughing but only because I saw wii fit not wi fi and I was wondering why you would need a laptop to play the wii! You can tell what we play around here! I think I need more coffee!

Hello
I am new to the boards and could use a some advice on which dress to make for our visit to the Bippity Boppity Boutique. I was think of making the Cinderella mice dress. My daughter will be 4 at the time of our visit and I wanted to do something different. I am usure is this is a good choice or should I go with the tradition blue gown. Any thoughts/opinions welcome.

Thanks

Well, you DO see a lot of blue Cindy gowns there, so something different is likely to get more attention. Cindy's pink mice gown is a great choice since you rarely see one in the park.

I read it the same way the first time!!!! I had to go back and read it again!

Do what you want!!! I love the pink Cinderella dress. My sister, Heathersue made my niece Tessa the pink dress for our trip to BBB last year. She was adorable in it! I say make whatever dress you want to! Funny, out of the 5 girls I took to BBB not one of them was in Cinderella's blue dress! Arminda had Cinderella, but she wanted it to be silver, like it really looks in the movie.

This is super cute! I love the colors and it's cute enough for a shirt or a dress.

I am taking the opportunity to shamelessly repost the picture of all the girls from last years BBB trip, and our lunch as 1900 Park Fare!

I was one that saw wii fit also, I was trying to figure out if there was a new part that could put with your laptop.

This was at Camp Minnie Mickey in their little singing/dancing area when you first get to that land, I can not remember what exactly the area was called, also there was Kenai and Koda from Brother Bear.

I did the pink dress for 1900 Park fare last year and it got a lot of attention. I got a lot of help here with it, and went through 2 before i got it right, but it was really cute in the end. I woudl post a pic, but I cannot get photobucket open.

Thanks Teresa. I had never been to the scrubs section in Walmart before as I am an office manager and never had the need, but they are rearranging our Walmart cause of an expansion and I happened to walk thru. I think it must have been a popular top, cause the only size left was the XS. They had lots of other Disney stuff there, but most was $19 and this one was $10.

This is super cute! I love the colors and it's cute enough for a shirt or a dress.

Thank you.

Here are some pictures of Grace modeling her "Miss Molly" sundress from YCMT. I made it in solid white so we could take beach pictures in it next week.

She was being difficult in the first picture.

She tried to me nice and smile in the second picture so I would let her go play.

Ok, I just got the biggest laugh. . . These pictures look like the ones I get sometimes from my daughter!! The dress is precious though and will make beautiful beach pics!

I saw the same thing! i thought...what do you need a laptop for the wii fit! Glad i wasn't the only one!

Okay girls and Tom... Off to Mary Jo's! Hopefully I don't spend too much...I really just need some cupcake material....but I only go there 1 or 2 times a year!

It sounds like you have a bobbin tension problem. If you would bring your machine in there is a screw on the bobbin case that can be adjusted to get the correct tension. I had that problem and the guy at the sewing machine shop adjusted it with that screw. Great explanation on the needles too. That is what I do mostly.

I was afraid you would say that. The odd thing is the manual says the bobbin tension is adjusted at the manufacturer and it has always had this issue. I hope it isn't expensive to fix.

I have lurked off and on this thread for a few months and I have finally finished two dresses for our Disney trip!!! Thanks to all of the inspiration here, I have dusted off my sewing machine and remembered how much enjoyment there is in sewing!! I have also become reaquainted with my old friend the seam ripper!

You have also enabled me to join etsy - so I could buy patterns, google all different styles of sewing machines (my Singer is an 1984 model -lol) shop for more fabric than I could sew in a year and shop for needles I never knew existed! I hope to attempt some applique soon!

I know this was asked, but I didn't see the answer - how do you applique the Princesses' eyes/facial features? I used to fabric paint years ago - so I may end up painting faces for a while!

Here are the dresses - I altered a Simplicity Daisy Kingdom pattern for this!

I love your dresses, I haven't done a princess face but I think some are painted, some are done with a machine and others use DMC embroidery floss and a needle to hand sew them.

If the location has free wi fi (Like a Mcdonalds)? What about like at WDW can you buy like a prepaid card or something?

I am laughing because at WDW you still have to use a ethernet cable. They have a WIFI network for their employees though. DH gets really aggravated about this.

On another note....I am so excited!!!!! I did my first button hole tonight!!!!! I couldn't believe how easy it was. Have I told you yet that I LOVE my new machine!!!! Yay! I knew you guys would understand my excitement. My poor DH didn't quite understand why I was so excited over a buttonhole!

Congratulations on the first button hole!

Hi Everyone,

I am back from our trip to Southern California. We had a great time and spent two days at Disneyland. However, I am starting to fear that our little guy may be jinxed when it comes to trips to Disney. On his very 1st trip to WDW last December he ended up getting severely sick and landed in the hospital. This trip, we had just arrived at our hotel in Anaheim when he fell and split his head open. We rushed him to a hospital close by where the Dr. decided rather than stitch him up, she would use "glue"...aka, dermabond. It still took 3 people to hold my baby down and this was after they had "mummied" him up in a sheet. I didn't give him the nickname, "little Houdini" for nothing. He can escape (wiggle free) out of just about anything!!! Hahaha. Here is a picture of my sweet little guy fast asleep on his first trip to Disneyland. (Look at his little Goofy that he somehow stole from his big sister...hahahahaha)

(Oh and I embroidered that Mickey on his shirt. Hahaha....this time with NO hole in the back of the shirt. Hahaha. Oh and his ear is all red because he had just been laying on it. LOL.

Adorable little boy! I am so sorry he fell. Poor little guy.

Wow that is a blast from the past - I wanted Joci to get her first cut there. then DH teased that she looked like a little jungle boy.
'cause her is her before during and after.

QUESTION ALERT : when sewing on "Minnie Dot" fabrics do you use the background color thread or do you use white thread?

I use the background color. I love the first haircut pictures she is adorable.

One of my best friends is graduating from nursing school this week and having a celebration dinner saturday night. This is a career change for her and she's been working full-time while doing nursing school evenings and weekends. I am trying to come up with an idea for a gift for her and I just can't come up with anything. I want what I get to be special and not just a picture frame or the like. Any suggestions from disboutiquer land??? I was thinking she loved that ladybug fabric from walmart and I have the YCMT ladybug backpack pattern, do you think I could make that for her? Any other suggestions would be great in case I don't have time to finish the backpack by Saturday night. Thanks!

I think that bag is adorable! So are a lot of the other bags on YCMT

OK, So I am going to put a few pics from our trip a 2 weeks ago and 1 from my baby girls B-Day. No real great outfits here so feel free to skim on by!! I will probably post a couple more as I find the pics in the other outfits.

Looks like you had a great time! I love the pictures.

I would ask my daughter what she would like. . . you could make a working girl dress to wear to the BBB and then make the blue ball gown to wear after her makeover. I think a few ladies here have done that.

I LOVE this fabric!!! Where did it come from???

Mirandag did you digitize those designs for the HS dress yourself??? If not do you mind sharing your source?? I absolutely love that outfit!!!

Nope I can't digitize. I had the idea for all them a little while before Heather started digitizing, so I had asked Claire from Stitch on Time if she could make them. She made the movie ticket, mickey's director chair, film reel and take 2 clapper, but couldn't come up with Mickey's Hollywood Star for me.... I had the designs for a little while, but really wanted Mickey's Hollywood star on the dress. When Heather started digitizing, I asked her if she could do Mickey's Hollywood star, and voila.... Heather saved the day! She is soooo awesome! I always love Heather's designs, and she always has a way of coming up with great looking designs that I need. Just wait until you all see her new Birthday designs! They are to die for!

So anyhow the designs came from Stitchontime.com (search movies to find them) and Etsy.com search seller HeatherSue.

 

[Dreamer & Wisher]

Are there any coupon codes for You Can Make This? I have quite a few patterns in my wish list and I would love to get them all!!

I don't see a bundle pack with the patterns I want.

I want the Sophie Tunic, Patricia Tunic, The Emma Swing top, the Round Neck Top, The A-line Dress & top and the ModMommy Nursing cover up!

Thanks in advance for any help!

Got a little Tinkerbell dress finished last night.

Soooooooooooo cute! Bummer about the fabric, I'd have loved some, but can't do much for 9 y/o DD w/ an xs LOL. Smart thinking!
