Disboutiquers Part 18 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[phins_jazy]

It's been a day already. And it's not even noon yet! I had a serious freak out moment. I went to turn my sewing machine on and the lcd screen started blinking really weird and I couldn't use any of the buttons. When I would try to stitch it would stitch BACKWARDS!!!! Turned it off, switched plugs, switched surge protectectors, smacked the side of it and completely unplugged it and just walked away. Nothing seemed to work. I came back 20 minutes later and it magically started to work again. Now I'm scared to turn it off for fear that it won't turn back on. It's an older machine. I'm just hoping it gets me through christmas. Then, while brushing my darling 5 year olds hair to get her ready for school, I discover that she's cut her hair!!!!! This is the 3rd time she's done this. 3rd time!!!!! It makes me crazy. I guess I'm going to have to put all my sewing scissors up on a high shelf with a lock on it or something because she seems to get the ones out of my sewing case. I'm so frustrated right now I just want to scream!

If you've been around a while, this little turkey might look familiar! I did it by hand a few years ago for Sawyer. But, I digitized it this year and made him a new shirt. He still loves it! Check out Tessa's missing teeth! She's had 3 front teeth fall out in the last couple of weeks and one more is really loose! She's talking with the cutest little lisp right now!

He insisted that Tessa had to be in the picture, too! Stephres made the jacket that Tessa is wearing, so it's appropriate that she's in the picture.

Here's my little bitty Sawyer with his first turkey shirt. I can't believe how little he was!! He must have been about 17 months old. *sigh* I need a baby!

Most of my facebook friends have seen this already, but I can't resist sharing it- even though I haven't made it into anything yet. I drew this and digitized it yesterday and I think she turned out SO cute! I'm going to put it on something for Tessa for when we see The Princess and the Frog. But, I haven't decided what to make yet.

OMGOSH!!! While in the car tonight Taylor & I were talking about Christmas & she told me she really wants a Zhu Zhu Pet. Since I know these are sold out everywhere I told her that so many kids wanted them that I may not be able to find her one. She told me NOT to worry because, "Santa does NOT have to buy them from a store, he MAKES his own"!!!!!!!
Oh my goodness, my sweet girl. Now I REALLY need to find one (at normal price though @ten bucks). If anyone sees them in the store, please, please tell me!!!!!!!!

i'll keep my eyes peeled, although i had no luck in ny , my aunt was able to get it for me in va in her 24 hr walmart. they had a special area away from the toys where you had to request it. she went at 4am for me i love her there is also a thread about finding zhu zhus i think it is in the budget board, there waas a tip about checking target online for local store availability at a certain time of day and then showing up at opening , you might want to read thru it.

Okay, I just finished two more outfits (and no, I in no way did both of these completely tonight!!) I kept the pictures BIG!! So please thumbnail them!! And I can shrink them if you'd like!

DHS dress. It's a simply sweet with a strip work skirt. I think of it as "Mickey Through the Years":

And a dress for Dinner with Cinderella at 1900 Park Fare. Another simply sweet with a "made up" peek-a-boo skirt:

Oh yeah..all the faces are painted. I in no way wanted to applique all those!!
Thanks for looking! Now I really better get to sleep!!!

Jessica

these are phenomenal, i want them in my size please

 

[froggy33]

Jessica, I don't want to shrink the pictures because that is so perfect. Your work is amazing!

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! That Mickey through the years dress is absolutely FANTASTIC!!!! I really love that! It's so unique and cool!

The 1900 Park Fare dress is fabulous, too!! I love how you made the Stepsisters scowling out from the peekaboo part! It's perfect!

Thank you! Thank you! Complements from such talented people on here really boosts ones ego!!

LOVE this! I really need to get a bigger hoop!!!

I am getting ready to start on a Tiana dress for our Disney trip. We will be there the Friday it opens!

these are phenomenal, i want them in my size please

Thank you so much!! As long as your chest, waist, and hip measurements are all the same I'm good!! HA! I have never really made anything for adults, I'm afraid of shape. Except for a skirt for me, but that was just a circle/flouncy skirt with a yolk!

Very cute. (if you did have a baby, you would have use for those cute little bubbles you made )

My daughter had beautiful long hair leading up to our Disney trip when she was 4. Then she cut a big piece off right by her face just a few days before leaving. I didn't freak, but decided it would be fine if I just took some off the back so it didn't look so out of proportion. After a few cuts, I knew I was in trouble! Fortunately my hairdresser worked her in for an emergency Disney cut! I'm not sure if you can see, but it kind of fluffed up at the sides and was SO cute!

I hope your day turns around and you can do something with her hair AND your machine....

You know I have found its just better to go ahead and SCREAM!!!!!

She's talking with the cutest little lisp right now!

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth

Super cute! Princess Tianna fever is breaking out all over!

The nurse in you will like this one, then! They told Teresa not to bring the girls in at all unless they couldn't breathe! That's how rampant this flu is around here! So, she hasn't been to the doctor yet. They "let" me bring my kids in because Tessa's fever kept going up, after 5 days, and because Sawyer has had febrile seizures. I do think Lydia has H1N1 because, so far as I can see, it lasts a long time with the fever coming and going. But, I agree that it might be time to make sure she isn't getting an infection, too.

Okay, I just think that sounds crazy.HELOO if my child can't breathe, I'm not calling to schedule them an appointment, they are going 911!!!! Also how do they know if the child has not developed a secondary infection? Dehydration is really easy with high fevers. I am a bad person, but I would probably call and say my child had an earache so they would check them out. I mean who is to say they don't have an earache with fevers that could be an ear infection?

This would be nice!! I have two "by hand" bias tape makers and started to use one for my feliz, but then realized I am an idiot and cut the strips the wrong width...so I have to do it completely by hand!! Took forever and I burnt myself, but it turned out alright. This would have definitely come in handy!

 

[Granna4679]

Thanks! I have been trying to work a peek-a-boo skirt in for a while. This seemed like a good way!

Don't worry too much about the feliz. If you use the trillium sew-a-long it really isn't bad. After cutting I finished mine in just a couple nights. I had 5 short ruffles and two long ruffles with no ruffler!!! The only trouble I have had before with the feliz is the straps. On my first one they really angled out to the shoulder and didn't stay up right. So this time I made sure they were straight. In stead of pinning/sewing both front and back at the same time, I pinned/sewed the front part of each and then checked if I liked them. Then I sewed the back part. Just make sure you don't twist the ties!! I know it will be lovely!!!

Thanks for the tips. I did print out the sew-a-long awhile back and have been following it. I wouldn't have thought to do that with the straps....I will do front and then back as you suggested. That makes sense. Thanks.

Does it only do single wide bias tape? Isn't it easier to work with the double folded stuff?

Oohhh, so cute! I can't believe how big he's getting; I love the shirt and the jacket btw!

That is just precious. I just bought Tiana fabric yesterday. I wish I had an embroidery machine so I could use this. Love it.

It looks really cool - but I wonder about what size it makes? If I would use it all the time, it would be great to have. But, I'm afraid it is something that I would buy because it's cool and then I never used it.

What do you have in mind? Do you need some things stitched out? Or do you have a machine and you're wanting something digitized?

Everyone lately has been talking about starting there first feliz. I just finished my first this week. I think it was easier to put together then I thought it would be. I already bought Princess Tiana material for a spring feliz.

My little model is at grandparents, also it will be a couple weeks before she wears this dress.

And here is the back
