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

What pattern is this dress? It's super cute!

Eva answered but it's the Anna. It is a great pattern and super quick! I just added the double ruffle to the dress.

My 1st real multi-pieced applique from a coloring page. It is a tshirt for DS. He hasn't seen it. I'll let him see it when he wakes up in the morning.

I'm getting there. It is much better than my last one. I need to put a Mickey Ghost on DD Halloween dress & then to try a Marie. I think that I'm going to use fleece for her fur.

This is awesome!! We love P&F around here. I cannot wait to do a custom when we get home from our trip.

OMG is this the front and back of one dress???? My jaw is dropped to the floor on this one!!! I so wish my daughter liked the Evil Queen!

Seriously, isn't this one divine!! I so want it for Hannah. OMG she would wear it everywhere.


Anyone looking for pettiskirts??

If so let me know. I have a small and a medium that have to find a new home. They are brand new and never been worn.

I Love them all! I am really loving the fabric on your candy apple. Do you remember where that came from?

It was a FQ from Joanns. They might still have it.

Those are stunning! I love the queen of hearts, was it a pattern or something you made up. I wanted to go as the queen of hearts to MNSSHP.

The Queen of Hearts is probably one of the most difficult costumes I've done. I used the sleeves from one pattern, the bodice from another, and the skirt from another. I hand cut the diagonal black and yellow panel....

That's one I've never replicated for anyone else. I'm REALLY hoping it's not too short to wear this fall. I want her to wear it at the Alice Trick or Treat trail at the Halloween party.

If it's something you want to try, PM me and I can give you some ideas....

Pettikirts yes I was just shopping for them.

Can you PM me?

Please tell me you are kidding! That dress is so gorgeous the way it is!


I agree Darla!!! That dress is just stunning! I wouldn't have given her that link if I were you! I'm mean that way! In fact, I'm deleting it from my quote!!!

Were you ever able to get a picture of Cinderella in her dress? I'd love to see it.

No Teresa I do not think I will dye it. There are several people that you do not want to make mad.

Like your dentist before a root canal, or say your seamstress before a 9 day trip to Disney World!

It was a FQ from Joanns. They might still have it.

I am SERIOUSLY going to have to start paying attention to FQ's! I did order a bundle of FQ's off etsy, now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do w/ them. Either a stripwork or patchwork but I'm SCARED to death to cut them and make a wrong cut.

I know I'm a little late here...boy did I fall behind on this thread!!! But here's my photo of the dress in the window.

Hey better late than never! i actually got 2 pictures from my request that made me very happy! Thank you!

BOOT UPDATE:

Well, I'm back to hunting again. I had ordered the boots online this morning, but called when they opened just to be sure they really had them. Come to find out, they listed the 2/3 size in error. They only have the smaller sizes......

I'm back to begging for help again!

This just tickles me for some odd reason. You are seriously "On a boot mission" aren't you???? I have had "needs" like that before myself!! Best wishes, and i will keep my eyes posted! There is always the 'trimming of the foot option" if you can't find any!

I finally got around to taking pictures of Gracie's Tink outfit so I wanted to share pictures.

You know, if I found the boots, and got the picture with the pengiun, what on Earth would I obsess about????

I do have a piece of white stretch satin here. I'm still entertaining the idea of making spats (shoe covers) since that's what Mary wears in the park. And I'm just going to make the new Mary costume nice and long to take the view away from the shoes.

Thanks to the person who posted the link to instructions on shoe covers! I bookmarked it in case I go that direction...

Help please I am looking for pictures of the Mulan sundress. It was Mulan and the little girl whose name escapes me alone walking???

Oh the same dress was made for the Mom who labeled all of the outfits n a ziplick bag??

I am thinking it was Revrob?

Who washed their bandanas and they faded? I wanted to let you know that mine came today from there, and I threw them in the wash right away to make sure they were okay incase I had to return them. They came out pretty good. You didn't use something with bleach in it? Just looking to see what may have happened to yours.

Your stuff ALWAYS amazes me, but this is just too cute with Tink's reflection!

I was just checking out your pictures on Flickr - they are great!!!!

I have one of those dresses! It was made by Cindee - who is Morgan's mom. We LOVE our Mulan dress - it's already in the bag for our upcoming trip. I'm sad that this will probably be the last time she'll get to wear it. She's grown so much!

Anyway, here's a pic! Sorry - I can't find one that has a good view of the dress with Mulan in my photobucket. here's one that shows the dress pretty well

Hey gals! Matt decided on Sunday to move our trip up. We leave Aug. 24!

I have been sewing the past couple of days, pretty well only time I've had my machine out all summer. I made this for me last night. It calls for a drawstring right below bust. I'm afraid I'll mess it up, but the bust isn't quite right. It may fix it. What do you think?

Very pretty the way it is! I agree on the top stitching...

 

[pixeegrl]

I'm actually working on a Vida type dress for a woman who decided she wants customs for herself. I was hesitant at first but I was able to size the pattern up fairly easily. I made a 'fit' dress of inexpensive fabric first to be sure she liked how it looked. The 'real' dress won't have Tink but it will have a fairy on it.

You HAVE to post this when it's done. Please!

That is the one.

Oh my she looks so precious in it!

I washed them and had them fade badly!! I washed them in cold water with dreft detergent. My dd has sensory issues so we always use dreft. No bleach at all.

MANY THANKS! Some of the Sleeping Beauty pics on Flickr are from Simplicity 9384. Another picture in there (the blue satin Sleeping Beauty) is from Simplicity 5835. 9384 IS more complicated, but it's the real McCoy. These are 9384:

9384 has the full circle flare skirt, which I love!

This one is from 5385:

The key to getting ANY of those Sleeping Beauty gowns to fit properly is to not be afraid to make them snug through the chest and waist. (Cut it with plenty of allowance along the back seam where the zipper goes, so you have plenty of room, but then trim away when done to get the nice close fit). Otherwise they fall off the shoulders and don't look right.

I do sell on both of those sites under the same ID I use here, although not necessarily from the exact same styles shown on Flickr. I usually do things on my own daughter's gowns that I would never want to replicate! Usually these are small things that result in many additional hours of work!

Happy sewing!

Something about your post got me thinking and I then I went and checked out your ebay listings and then I was like ...waitaminute! I KNOW who this is! I bought 2 sun dresses from you last year in April. One has Mickey and Pluto on the bodice and the other is white with classic pooh along the hem.

familiar??



If memory serves me correctly ages ago (more than a year) I got in a bunch of hot water cause I posted "these amazing custom dresses on ebay" and since you use your daughter as your model they asked me to delete my post since it was of someone elses child.

small world....

so my next question- I think I own both those patterns, i know I own the 9384, I also have 4949, I even have cinderella 9383...I seem to be collecting them, as I have yet to make even one. But our next trip is next May, DD will be 4- do you think it's worth the effort for a 4 year old or should I go with the 5385 (says easy to sew) or even the 4949 I think, she is just starting to wear 3Ts now, so Im guessing she will be wearing 3T, maaybe 4T, and then my next question- I want to make it and have it fit,- if I start this in Feb is that too early?
If I do one of the more complicated patterns Im wondering if I should do the bodice in muslin first....
