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

[mirandag819]

Okay first off, let me say I LOVE HEATHERSUE and CARLAC! After spending all week working on the safari outfit that took forever, it was so nice to finish this last night in just a couple hours..... I honestly think the hairbow took me longer then the outfit! It was so nice to be able to stitch out 5 appliques in a very brief amount of time instead of 6 days. I will actually be putting the cupcake one on t-shirts for me, my mom and my sis too!

Here is Taylor's outfit for the Wishes Dessert Party, I will probably put a pink petti under the skirt, but it isn't here yet.

Here is my first attempt at a more boutique hairbow.... it still needs some practice and work, but when it was taking longer then the outfit, I decided to leave it be.

Oh! I'm so glad you asked! I'd love to show you!

What great deals! How nice of you and those great deals mean you can make even more kids happy!!!!

I'm so upset I was sewing Violette's Nemo twirl and I had to take out some ruffle stiches because it wasn't gathered enough. I was pulling on the fabric to break the stitches and tore one of the patches right in half down the middle. It was the 2nd tier. I don't want to have to take it all apart I'm so bummed...

Hope you were able to fix it. It should be pretty easy to hide the repair on a patchwork skirt.

Good news for me! I am a big dumb dumb..... my flights I wanted to Disney on Southwest were dinged a few weeks ago for $68 each way.... normal is $110 each way on Southwest....so I quickly booked....well when I gave the flights to Disney for Magical Express they pointed out to me that I booked my flights backward..... I was flying from Orlando on my arrival day and flying to Orlando on my depature day. I was so glad they noticed it, because that would have stunk to arrive at the airport and find out I wasn't booked for the flight I thought. Anyhow.... since the ding had expired, even though it was offered both direction and I was just silly, I would have to pay full price on the new flight, so I would have had to pay $386 more for all 4 of us to get the same flights I already thought I booked. I was pretty bummed. I decided to wait and hope the flights I wanted would get dinged again. Well today they did!!! They even went a little lower then before $60 each way....so I got them booked and got a $64 credit for a future flight (which will work good if DH gets to join us and I need to book him a 1 way flight) Anyhow I had to share my excitement with someone.... I started to call and tell my mom, but then I realized I never told her I screwed up the flights because I didn't want her to worry about it.

Congratas on fixing your flights and getting such a great deal!

Thanks to all of you I made my first dress ever last weekend and posted it earlier in the week. In case you missed it I had not touched a sewing machine since middle school. Thanks again for all of the kind comments on it! Since then, I made a second pillowcase dress for my niece and I made a scaled down version of my first pillowcase dress for DD's AG doll. Here is a photo of them in their matching dresses at a tea party today. I have a long way to go and will never be able to do the complicated things you guys do but DD is very happy so far.

How cute! Love the AG doll dress!

Yesterday I took Jenna and my niece Renee to the zoo. We had a blast even though it was super hot and we were drenched in sweat by the time we got out of the zoo. I guess we got there at a good time because we saw tons of animals. The only ones we didn't get to see were the bears and that is the one that the girls really wanted to see. Oh well. Maybe next time. Here are the dresses that I made for the girls. Of course they had to match.

So cute!!!!

LOOK AT MY FABRIC FIND!!!!!!!!!!!!


I have been looking for this since it was posted here and finally found it. It is not blue like I wanted, it is the pink print but I am so freaking excited. I got 2 yards of it. (now I just have to decide what to make) I can't wait to see Roseanna in that fabric on Main Street! It will be so hard to cut into. I am thinking maybe a Vida with some appliques of castle and rides, but I am not sure. I really need to think this one out so it is perfect!

How cool!!! Congratulations! Can't wait to see what you make with it!

On Wednesday DH had to take a trip about two hours away...so we all tagged along, better than sitting here while it rained...it was perfect weather an hour away from here! Anyway...I did get to check out a fabric place...all upohlestry fabrics...which is good because I want to do the kids couch.


AND I did sew some too! I was able to make Katie a dress with fabric I purchased 4 years ago! I always wanted to make her a dress with it, but never found the right pattern! THANKS again to Carla for always coming up with what I need!!!! Katie said this is here favorite thing I have ever made for her! (Then funny part of the fabric... I know you can't tell in the pic...but it is the same fabric Carla has in the bodice pic in the instructions...Katie said it was meant to be!)

And Timmy wanted to be in on the picture...

And here is Buckley...he is doing really well...big silly tried to chase a rabbit yesterday...I had to stop him to keep him from hurting himself!

Love the fabrics for the kids' couch. LOVE the dress!!!!

My Mom love her. Threw a surprise Birthday party for Megan yesterday. Megan theought even thought it was her birthday we were just going to pick up her sisters which had been vacationing at grandmas for a few days. Then I told her we were comming back home. My mom thought of everything even hula outfits for the girls. And a hawaiian theam cake. I thought I would share them with all of you.

Birthday girl and her lilo cake.

Thank you for letting me share.

How fun!!!

Oh wow, what a fabulous party! Could I ask please, where did you get the Lilo and stitch cake??? My DD wants a lilo and stitch themed birthday party in September, and since we are in the US in August, I would love to get her one, then maybe I could keep the figures and decorations and make her another one when its her real birthday

You should be able to find it at most big chain grocery stores.

It is wedding day for fairygoodmother!

Her daughter walks down the aisle at 5:00 tonight. All of the dresses Darla made are gorgeous.

For the little girls she made Aurora, Cinderella, and Snow White but in white and ivory brocade. She also made all of the bridesmaid dresses.

I will take lots of pictures, but I will let her post them.

Hope everyone has lots of fun day!

Hi Everyone!!

We had a great trip to Camp Promise - the campers were wonderful! We are totally exhausted and I am hating the idea of getting back to real life!! Here are a few pictures to share with you all....

Our lake with a rainbow.

Welcome home! Great photos. That rainbow is stunning! I didn't know Zoey got to go too.

Have any of you made toy story outfits for girls? I have looked in the photobucket account and there aren't very many. I'm just looking for ideas. My daugther (who's 2 yrs. old) loves Woody and Jessie (she calls them her Yee-Haw Bo Bo's). If you have made something, I would love to see it!

Also, man! I have sewing machine envy! Now that I have started making things the one I got on clearance for $30 just isn't cutting it anymore!!! My zig-zag stitch stinks. The two I have are either way too small or too big to hand applique this Cinderella bird. I want a new one SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad!!!!!!

I made my tomboy a very simple Buzz outfit. Buzz loved it and Jessie made a big fuss over it when we saw her! I don't know if Jessie does meet & greets any more though.

 

[teresajoy]

Don't give my DD any ideas!!!! Taylor is catching on and had been demanding outfits for everything, to match her friend's birthday party themes, movies we go to, ice cream day at school. Before I know it she will need a Target custom for shopping at target.

You say that likes it's not normal!

 

[mommyof3princess]

Oh my word that is fantastic. How cute. She looks sweet enough to eat. Great job I love it.

How do you get "into" the group buys? I haven't "belonged" to any, b/c I can't figure out how to join.

Whenever I have seen someone post a link I have followed and joined it. But I get way too many emails (and adding more on doesnt help) so I have really never figured out any of them. They seem hard for me to follow along (sure it is just me). I did try one group buy and not sure it worked. I'll let you'll know. I don't keep a list of my groups though so I have no idea where I have seen what!

I used to be able to buy from a lady who was just in a sewing group with me. She did it small scale and it was great except it took forever to get the fabric! It seems like there is always alot of substituting or cancellations too so I don't try to follow too hard.

Hoping someone else saw it.

Okay first off, let me say I LOVE HEATHERSUE and CARLAC! After spending all week working on the safari outfit that took forever, it was so nice to finish this last night in just a couple hours..... I honestly think the hairbow took me longer then the outfit! It was so nice to be able to stitch out 5 appliques in a very brief amount of time instead of 6 days. I will actually be putting the cupcake one on t-shirts for me, my mom and my sis too!

Here is Taylor's outfit for the Wishes Dessert Party, I will probably put a pink petti under the skirt, but it isn't here yet.

Here is my first attempt at a more boutique hairbow.... it still needs some practice and work, but when it was taking longer then the outfit, I decided to leave it be.

How adorable!!!! How cool will you guys be with matching T's too!!! Love the ribbons in the bow! I think the bow looks great!

Thanks for the comments on our trip - it was amazing - I really wish everyone could experience a week at camp with those campers - they are amazing and just teach us so much every year....we need to be more like them sometimes!

Sew very cute! Love the bow too! You ladies really make me want to learn to applique!

 

[lovesdumbo]

That is so cute!

Thanks! I need to get sewing so I can post new stuff. I haven't sewn anything since April.

I love this outfit; what a great idea!

Thanks! I bought this fabric to make her a simple sun dress this year. She'll wear a dress as long as it isn't too girly.

Has anyone been to Seaworld? How big it is say compare to Magic Kingdom?

Do you think it would be OK for DD(6) to wear a Nemo outfit?

I love this! I totally would be casing it if I would have been able to get reservations for us!

 

[pixeegrl]

Okay so it's quite obvious to me what I did wrong....but hopefully not to anyone else. Maybe you all will just think I meant to do it that way lol. The appliques is too high up. Anyways, here goes. Action shots hopefully next week when we see Abby.

WOW! Very cute. I have to say...you have taken this sewing thing and RUN with it. (Love that moped guy!) Everything you have been posting lately is just adorable. I love that you did the front of the shirt in white and the back in pink. I don't think that ever would have occurred to me. Can't wait to see what else you create!

TOO TOO CUTE!!! I LOVE it!! I still can't believe that you've only been sewing for 2 months; you're outfits are always wonderful!!

Hi. I"m new on this thread, but my mom has gotten an embroidery machine and I'd love to find the Star Wars Weekend logo to get computerized for a shirt.

Where can I find the logo (without the word "Weekend") with Mickey and Yoda on it?

HELP!

 

[emcreative]

Oh I'm so glad my HannahDiva isn't here to see the Dessert outfit, she'd want one for when we go...it's AWESOME!

So what do y'all do if you change your kid halfway through the day (or with Littles like ours, have to have backup clothes)? Do you put them in a backpack and take them on the rides and everything with you? Do you get a locker? Do you leave them in the bottom of the stroller when you're on a ride and hope for the best? I'm asking for those times when it isn't practical to go back to the resort.

Oh! And while I was out today I took a picture of the "Minnie/Mickey" girls shoes they now have a Payless for $5 in case anyone is interested. They aren't the best pics but I took them with my cell phone!

I am not sure if I have seen that. A stitch on time has some star wars stuff. I know that she takes requests too. Some people charge for requests, but I don't think she does. Everyone seems to love Heather's designs too. I am pretty sure she doesn't have the star wars ones, but she might be willing to make them (frou frou by heather sue on etsy).


Toadstool- I thought I replied, but I couldn't find it. The peter pan smocking plate was something that I created. I just did it in photoshop. It took F.O.R.E.V.E.R. I would be happy to forward it to you. Just PM me you email address. It is longer than a normal 45 inch pleated insert. I sewed two together and cut one off in the end.
