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

[tricia]

ok, I finished the dress and I really like it, the only issue is that the dress is a little too puffy confused3) as I used a lot of fabric for the skirt and the linen lace provided a little stability to the inside skirt, which bring me to the question: How do you care (wash) a dress like this.. it has heavy cotton eyelet for the inside, kona cotton for the lining(top) and my issue again is the linen lace as I imagine it will be hard to take care, but if is only worn once it will be enough for me as Mya's Give is really close to my heart

I added this headband

PS My husband fell in love with the dress!!!! This is the first times he compliment anything that I've done

Linnette

This came out GORGEOUS. Love the little headband.

This is BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I love it!

For anyone with an answer, I have a quick question for the simply sweet pattern. I am the one who made with patriotic dresses for my 2 DD's and their dolls with the matching headbands. Anyway, I chose to make them the thigh length because I was going to applique shorts to match. Well, obviously they turned out to be dresses. Is it because I added the cuff around the bottom? I assumed when I made the thigh length, it would come to the top of their thighs. Am I wrong? Any help would be much appreciated so I don't make the next ones to long. I wouldn't want to pick the knee length and have it end up at their ankles!

Also, if you use the measurments from the pattern make sure you confirm either Empire or natural waist. Is it possible you took numbers for the Empire waist even tho the dresses appear to be natural?

I think your idea of cold and ours waaayy down south are different, b/c we froze last Nov. A low of sixty is jacket weather at least for us, but definitely not shorts or short sleeves. I only wore capris one day when it was forecasted to get above eighty. Most days it was in the fifties when we struck out for rope drop and we were bundled up pretty good. 2 different days i broke out earmuffs and gloves. There were 2 days where we did come out of the long sleeves by the end of the day, though. Was last year colder than normal, or about average?? We didn't even consider swimming and I refused to do splash mountian and chance walking around frozen all day. I had a jacket on about 1:30 in the afternoon when DD asked to do it.

I am from NY (long island) so cold here vs cold by you do seem to be pretty different Thanksgiving here can mean snow, so even 60's seems like a heat wave! I guess it is all relative!

Absolutely!! I have seen snow here a total of 3 times in my 31 years! I don't do cold very well and neither does DD. DH seems to do a little better, but we are wimps!!

I'd be honored!

This winter was exceptionally colder than any others in my memory. For the FIRST time ever we even had a cold Halloween in Miami (all relative of course). Anyhow, from Halloween 2008 until March 2009 we had more cooler weather than I EVER remember down here, so it was definitely not the norm. . . .

[karamat]

Hello friends!
And I saw someone on youcanmakethis lengthened the tunic into a dress and I had to copy it. Would you like to see the inside of my bathroom?

It was pretty easy but it's a little difficult to get on and off, I am just biding my time until the adult peasant dress comes out!

I saw the picture on YCMT today and couldn't wait to get over here and tell you how great it looks!

 

[Camping Griswalds]

Lisa....I sent you a PM!

Thank you so much! I actually just updated my blog with directions in case anyone was interested.

Fancy Nancy Lily is soooooo cute! I love her sparkly shoes.

Elisa, your mom did a great job, I can't believe how big the girls are.

Linette, your sleeping beauty sundress came out great. Mya will love it I am sure!

Hi everyone, wow you are all chatty chatty now I am 10 pages behind again but will have to catch up later. Just wanted to post some pics. of what I have been working on. The shirt is what I made for my DH for Father's Day and the other is a Fish Extender for a fellow diser for her cruise.(unfinished right now.)

Sorry if the pics. are big, photobucket was giving me issues.

Stephres-

I was just peeking at your blog and saw the wristlet using the pikachu fabric. Would you mind sharing where you found that? My 9yo is still obsessed with pokemon!

What is a fish extender?

 

[mirandag819]

What is a fish extender?

It is a Disney Cruise Line thing..... it works as a bigger mail box..... and it is cute.

 

[emcreative]

Okay sorry I'm still confused...mailbox for what?

 

[2cutekidz]

Okay sorry I'm still confused...mailbox for what?

LOL! You can join other DISers in swaps, and you leave goodies for the others in their Fish Extenders. (Did I explain that right?) There's actually a bronze fish on the wall outside your statroom and the Fish Extender hangs from it (that's how it got it's name)

 

[mirandag819]

Okay sorry I'm still confused...mailbox for what?

There are a lot of "cruise meets"..... I am sure there are some besides just dissers... other online boards, or family reunions. A lot of times for the meets everyone makes or buys something and drops it off in the mail box for others in their meet. Plus Disney does drop off mail too.... upcoming events, schedules, ect..... of coarse there is a normal mailbox that would hold the piece of paper.

 

[emcreative]

lol okay...now I get it!

Oh! I got Hannah's ballet recital up today...she starts out the furthest on the right (on your screen).
