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

[gulf breeze]

Hi all! I've been lurking here for awhile now, I enjoy looking (and casing ) all the cute outfits. One question...well two really Is Heathers designs on Etsy the same lady as Stitch on Time? And how do you figure out the price of things on Stitch on Time? TIA Breeze

GORGEOUS! The piglet outfit was from you too, right? I loved that one as well.

And Livndisney I LOVE the stuff with the new fairies on it!


Those of you with sensory/spectrum kids will understand this:

While my oldest is my diagnosed SPD/Spectrum girl, middle sister Liz has some sensory issues with clothing. Well, Wednesday she decided that all those flip flops she tried on at Joanns and said were "great!" when we got them to craft were horrible horrible and they didn't feel good on her feet and she couldn't stand the idea of wearing them for even a minute. SO, we had to rush to our mall yesterday (remember we live in nowhereville so it was 30 minutes to a hallway of a shopping center) and by some miracle she found some sandals that even fit (she is a big size girls, tiny size womens, ugh) and were acceptable feeling (adidas flip flops that were "pillows" on her feet- watch, first day of disney suddenly they will feel horrible too. OMG though don't even get me started on trying to get her to wear socks. We don't make her most of the time, but softball season almost ENDED for her because of SOCKS!)

Anyway last night we were seeing which outfits needed cami's etc...and she suddenly says the top to her Minnie outfit doesn't "feel" right either! She tried it on two weeks ago and it was great! Last night she's freaking out totally like it's covered in shattered glass. I could not get her to vocalize, either, why the Minnie shirt wasn't right! It wasn't the material, it wasn't too tight, the straps were fine, etc...she just gets this way sometimes! Then, she starts completely falling apart and bawling. Lizzie is my most sensitive kid emotionally- she was crying mostly because she was CRUSHED she would hurt "Miss Missy's" (mommyof3princess) feelings if she didn't wear the shirt. She almost worked herself up to a panic attack that if she didn't wear the shirt Miss Missy would cry, and she'd make her feel bad for all the work she did on it. /sigh. So then I had to write a quick PM to Melissa, who (bless you) of course told her that she would NOT have her feelings hurt if she didn't wear the shirt, she just wanted her to be comfortable and have fun at Disney! (we love you Miss Missy you saved the night!)

So today we had to run out to that same hallway mall we'd scoured just the night before to find a shirt that would fit, feel good, match the Minnie skirt she loves AND, erm...either be appropriate without a training bra or look okay with one, or have one inside it. Yes, at 9 that is an issue, and that's a WHOLE other sensory clothing story. Anyhoo we somehow managed after trying on what feels like about 10000000 shirts. Melissa if you are reading us, Lizzie did say we would have to bring the shirt for her to at least put on at Disney for a picture for you. We'll see what happens.

And then today we had to put my dog down. I'm not able to go into details yet I'm just not ready. It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I'm sure some of you are as close to your pets as I am, but this felt like losing my baby. And speaking of babies, this was on top of yesterday getting some startling news from Ferb's OT about his progress, and that his issues may be more serious than we thought.

I really, really, REALLY need it to be vacation time! Forget Calgon, only Disney is gonna help this!

My almost 7yr old is a Sensory Kid with mild CP and all I can say is I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!! We went from wearing crocs in the snow with no socks all winter (in NY cold) to now this summer HATING them, and only wearing her "special" sneakers (who knows what makes them special other than she wears them without me wanting to murder her LOL). No jeans, twil or woven shorts, only tee shirt cotton, or mesh, tops cannot have embroidery or anything itchy on them, no tags, only the microfiber socks with the pink wrapper from Target...the list goes on and on. I hope her sensory stuff calms down for the trip and it isn't too overwhelming. If you would like PM me and I can share some treatment tips that have made a HUGE improvement in her sensory issues.
I hope you ALL enjoy your trip

I finally finished the outfit I started back in the spring.. I needed it done so I can start on Disney outfits! So, here is my little ham posing her heart out.

Twirling in the dead grass (we get no rain anymore)

And showing off her mario kart wii

Once I started sewing it went pretty quick. I learned some new things with this one

I'm so sorry that you are having a rough time but I am glad you got the clothing issues worked out. Just remember Disney is the happiest place on earth!

I am really sorry to hear about your dog. We just recently had to put down our golden retriever and we were completely heart broken. That is a horrible thing to go through. I hope your next few days get a little easier!

Oh I'm sure I will be PM'ing and commisserating. Can I just say the IRONY of this is that on our trip to Disney the oldest girl and I are writing an article for SI Focus about taking kids with sensory issues to Disney! As for Lizzie, this summer we are having the most luck with mesh boy shorts, boy tees (they are roomier/not fitted) and vans slip on shoes, lol!

The dress is adorable and so is she! I have a soft spot for kiddos with glasses- my Ferb has literally the thickest coke bottles I've ever seen, and has had them since he was 7 mos old. Most people were so shocked they thought they were fake (why in the WORLD would you put fake eyeglasses on a baby?!?!) and they even magnify his eye so he kinda reminds me of the owl in the old tootsie pop commerical. LOL wait until y'all see! But your little girl looks ADORABLE in hers!

I'm so sorry that you are having a rough time but I am glad you got the clothing issues worked out. Just remember Disney is the happiest place on earth!

I am really sorry to hear about your dog. We just recently had to put down our golden retriever and we were completely heart broken. That is a horrible thing to go through. I hope your next few days get a little easier!

Thank you. We have a Golden as well (Dave) who everyone says is the "best dog in the entire world." It was our Papillon, Riley, that we lost today. Even he worshipped Dave. I hope wherever he is, he's okay without his big buddy. I don't think it's sunk in yet to Dave that Riley isn't coming back.

I have that pattern and really like it. I used it for a TInk dress for my DD.

Hi all! I've been lurking here for awhile now, I enjoy looking (and casing ) all the cute outfits. One question...well two really Is Heathers designs on Etsy the same lady as Stitch on Time? And how do you figure out the price of things on Stitch on Time? TIA Breeze

No, Heather is not the same as Stitch on Time. I know if you multiply by about 1.5 you can a close approximation of the price. HTH!

Hi all! I've been lurking here for awhile now, I enjoy looking (and casing ) all the cute outfits. One question...well two really Is Heathers designs on Etsy the same lady as Stitch on Time? And how do you figure out the price of things on Stitch on Time? TIA Breeze

I think that someone answered already, but I just have to say - Heather's designs really are the best! I have hundreds and hundreds of designs that I've purchased, and in the short amount of time that Heather has had her shop, she has become my favorite digitizer of designs that I use for disney customs. WHY, you ask? She digitizes from the perspective of a seamstress. What do I mean by that? Her designs have as few layers as possible - which means that everything stitches out easily. There are no little tiny perturbing little curves to cut around. She layers things so that they are in large pieces and are easy to cut out. Because of that, they stitch out MUCH quicker than most designs. I can stitch one of Heather's designs, usually, in half the time that it takes me to stitch a similar design from another designer.

There are a lot of digitizers that I still love, and I DO purchase from lots. BUT, if I'm looking for something for a custom that is inspired by Disney, I'm checking Heather first.

She TOTALLY did NOT pay me to say that, either!

As far as Stitch On Time - I've purchased many designs from that site. I enjoy her variety. If you will go to the bottom of the page on the website, there is a drop down area that will say GBP (?) and you can change it to say US Dollar. When you change it, it will show you the appropriate price. Also, when you check out through paypal, it will convert it for you so you know what you're paying.

I just want to say, THANK YOU JHAM for making an awesome tutorial on the pillowcase dress! It took me less than an hour to make it and it's adorable! It's the quickest project I've ever done! I made more of a long top than a dress which is fine because i'm making some pants to go with it. I didn't realize til I got home that the fabric is the same fabric you used on one of Lily's dresses. I hope you don't mind. Thanks again!

There really is a one day is better than another at SW. A thursday may be dead and the following thursday is jam packed-no rhyme or reason (Unless it is La Musica or October).

The park itself is around a lake, the walk just to Shamu from the entrance can wear out little legs. Plan time for Shamu's area (and then plan extra time). They have several rides that Morgan LOVES including a little Shamu coaster. Take bathing suits and sunblock.
AVOID this area and Wild artic right after a Shamu show lets out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I strongly suggest the last Sea Lion show of the day-it is a parody of all the other shows in the park and is quite funny.

Do you have any Sesame street fans in your family?

No Sesame St fans here....Thanks again for all your insights!

I was inspired by Steph to clean up my sewing area. I was also pushed in that direction by the little one arriving in November. My sewing area was in the room that will be the baby's so I had to move it.

We have a room over our garage that is oddly shaped with sloping roof lines. You can see the roof lines here (this picture is from Winter 2007/2008 when the house was still under construction):

So my space was limited because we also use the room as an office. Here is what I came up with:

My fabric stash is pitiful compared to some but I really haven't sewn much lately and am trying to cut down on unnecessary purchases (DH sees fabric which will sit on a shelf as unnecessary).

Great job!

It sounds like we need to plan a Dismeet!

I'll be there 7/29 to 8/5

Here's the Cinderella Vida I've been working on for Hayleigh. She'll wear this in August to our CRT lunch. Although she was telling me about the prince dancing with her and we're not eating at 1900 PF for dinner this trip I like that she's so smart but when she remembers all the places to eat at WDW she doesn't realize we can't eat at them all every trip. We're trying some different places this trip.

I have another Vida I want to finish (the applique is done) and a simply sweet Belle dress. I also want to try to get a minnie red dot precious dress done, but don't know if that will happen, the first precious dress took me awhile. And if I work really fast I want to try to do a feliz.....

So wonderful!

Lands End at Sears has 30% already reduced summer stuff. My Sears had some girls knit skorts (not sure if they would work...) and boys knit shorts.

Okay I didn't get good pictures since she was tired and we were just in her room, but I finished Taylor's dress for breakfast at 1900 Park Fare today. Excuse the sweatyness (is that a word?) So all day today I was burning up and sweating, but I thought that was just the fever from swine flu.... never thought to check the thermostat.....apparently our A/C is broken.... (we have 2 seperate heating and cooling systems for upstairs and downstairs....both of them at set on like 60 right now and it is 85 downstairs and 93 upstairs......grrrrr why didn't I check them earlier I thought it was just me until she came how and was hot too..... now we have to wait until morning for the repair man to come, and I don't get how 2 units go out at the same time when the house is less then 2 years old!

I might try to get better pictures tomorrow because these aren't great and the coloring is a little off.

Can you tell she was too hot and tired to get her pictures taken?

My 2nd attempt at a hairbow....still not as good as I'd like, maybe I will practice a little more this weekend.

4 more outfits for Taylor to go..... HEATHERSUE.... I NEED MORE DESIGNS! No way will I finish everything on time without more of your wonderful designs.... they are so much better, faster, and they work on the first try..... here are the things I still need outfits for hint hint...

Chef Mickeys
Taylor's Birthday, I am thinking a mickey bday theme
Ohana breakfast (lilo and stitch, I already have a lilo though)
Ohana Dinner

Now I guess I will listen to the dr and rest a little while I check out everything that was posted today, I am behind!

 

[disneygirlsanddrew]

Can I just say that so far I LOVE my new machine!!!!! It is so much better than that cheapy one I had!!! It's opened up a whole new world for me! Hee-hee...I know I am being dramatic...I'm just so excited to finally be able to change the widths and lengths of my stitches!!!!

 

[SallyfromDE]

What a GREAT girl! LOVE her! Please let me know what she is planning to do, I'd like to help!


OK - finally - Ariel!

This is adorable. I'll have to work on downloading my vac pics so I can show everyone the weird Ariel I did for Kirsta.

 

[VBAndrea]

Wow! Great Idea! I may have to come here for ideas next month for my daughter's princess party.

I am Queen of party planning. I always make my kid's party invitations and with the exception of one party, I always throw them at our house. I just did a fabulous pony party for my daughter last month. I get a lot of ideas from http://www.birthdaypartyideas.com/ and then just make them better. Also, totally forgot who is having the AG party, but I just looked on the site and they have ideas for it. You could find tons of princess ideas there as well.

And it's a good thing I can plan parties b/c once I get around to sewing some outfits for dd and post the pictures you'll at least know I'm good at one thing (the parties, not the sewing).

Great dress. Hurry and get that air conditioning fixed for that poor child. And poor you, sick and with no air. Get better soon.

Hi all! I've been lurking here for awhile now, I enjoy looking (and casing ) all the cute outfits. One question...well two really Is Heathers designs on Etsy the same lady as Stitch on Time? And how do you figure out the price of things on Stitch on Time? TIA Breeze

I am sure others have anwsered already, but I will comment too... no they are not the same..... while I like the idea on a lot of the designs from stitch on time, and there is a great variety.... I honestly am wishing it was a HeatherSue design whenever I work with a stitch on time design..... Heather's designs stitch out so much faster, she doesn't have us cutting out tiny little pieces, everything always lines up, and she tests her own designs first (which catches any flaws with them before they are sent to us). I have never had to redo a heathersue designs, and I have had to redo many stitch on time designs (one of them at least 10 times because things went wrong).... IF I am re-stitching a heathersue design it is because I like it so much and it was so fast that I want to put it on something else too. The only problem I have with Heather's designs is she isn't making enough of them fast enough (HEHE j/k...... I know they are perfect because of the time you put into them, and if you were making them too fast we might loose the awesome quality) Also Heather has a great way of making designs that I have in my head, and making them look even better then I pictured, like the Mickey treats and Mickey Hollywood star. If I could I would get ALL my designs from Heather.... okay now maybe I am sucking up because I need more designs from Heather if I want to finish all my outfits in time for my trip.... If you are reading this Heather please see my post above with a list of places I still need outfits for, I am sure you can come up with something GREAT!

Oh yeah.... to see the amount in US dollars on stitch on time you can change the price to USD in the bottom right hand corner of the main page.

Twirling in the dead grass (we get no rain anymore)

Once I started sewing it went pretty quick. I learned some new things with this one

This is so pretty, what pattern is this? I know what you mean about no rain.... I am in NC too (Greensboro area), where my house is new and the constant drought my grass has not really taken I have so many dead and bare spots.... yours looks great compaired to mine!

Here's the Cinderella Vida I've been working on for Hayleigh. She'll wear this in August to our CRT lunch. Although she was telling me about the prince dancing with her and we're not eating at 1900 PF for dinner this trip I like that she's so smart but when she remembers all the places to eat at WDW she doesn't realize we can't eat at them all every trip.

How pretty! I love the glass slipper applique! That is awesome!

Hello!!
I love all the beautiful customs I've seen since I got home. I promise, I looked through every page that I've missed over the last 2 1/2 weeks but there is just no way to quote everything.
I'm so thrilled for T and the new baby. Praying for those who have asked and sad to know that we won't see Linette here anymore.
I wanted to share the great fabric finds I've come across to add to my stash in the last few weeks.
The first photo is of fabrics I found at a local clearance sort of place. It's always hit or miss, but this day I found the JACKPOT!!!! Star Wars fabric. I am now mother and wife of the decade according to my son and hubby. Better yet, it was only $2 a metre! (that's a little more than a yard)

This batch of fabrics I found at my favourite hole-in-the-wall in Ontario -Lens Mills. This place is kind of a warehouse and you never know what you'll find. Not even the girls who work there know what they have. The were surprised to see these fabrics. I am so thrilled to have the Snow White fabric especially. I think it's from a few years ago.

WOW! Great finds..... I soooooooo want that snow white, I wish you had gotten some for the fabric swap!

Ok I am delving into our Crystal Palace lunch wear...there will be 7 or 8 of us wearing Pooh and various friends tees and the little girls are wearing skirts which used to be dresses with their tees.

I finished the first one today....and I have to say Piglet stitched out sooo well.....I am so excited to do more!!!



Here I am so excited that its working I had to take a pic!!! Yaaaa Heather!!!!

And dd who is less than enthusiastic to have to stop playing for a sec and model this outfit...

And a close-up of Piglet...

Special thanks to Heather Sue for her excellent designs! I would highly recommend them!!!

So cute! All of Heather's designs stitch out so well.... I need more of them! I love her Pooh cuties, I had bought a Crystal Palace outfit before I learned how to sew, now I wish I hadn't because I want to make something with Heather's designs..... that skirt looks great with the Piglet Tee.





I haven't gotten that far back yet, I am working in reverse today, but I am been seeing the pictures of the Ariel dress posted in other people's comments and it is fantastic too!

 

[mirandag819]

First:
OMG WOMAN GET SOME REST! lol

Second: If you or heather need some help with images please let me know!

HAHA I am resting on the couch now.... even though I soooooooooo should be cutting fabric!

Anything you can come up with for those outfits I still need would be great if Heather is willing to digitize them for me.... you always have great ideas and do great images!

This has not been my week on top of the ring thing, I have Walking Pnunomia, And My Baby is turning 4 on Sunday
