Disboutiquers Part 19 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[SpectroMouse]

Hey Guys -

I have been a lurker since the very first Disboutiquers Thread. I have seen more amazing things than I could imagine possible! I don't really sew, but am mildly crafty, so am going to register and see if there is someting I can do to help with the big give!

I don't know if anyone remembers me, but I was poking around for inspiration before our last trip. We don't get to go again until December, but I'm hoping to get a head start this time.

Here are a few of my projects (some self-made, semi-self-made and "put together" from existing pieces) in action...

DS's Prince Charming outfit

DS's Prince Philip and DNiece's Briar Rose

Mom's FP costume, my Lilo, DS's Snow Prince and DNiece's skirt

Shirts

I hope to do a lot more "from scratch" this time around!! Hopefully I can make some things as FABULOUS as the ones that are always on this thread!!!

I just love everything. Where did you get to meet the Prince's? Is this in the tent? Your DS Prince outfits are outstanding. Was he okay with being a Prince? I know how boys can be sometimes. And your Lilo top was a great idea. Did you do an applique of Tink on the tye die? I think that was a great idea to. I do alot of put together outfits. I don't know why. I guess I think it will be easier on me? But it's not necessarily. Looking forward to what else you come up with.

I've wore several princified outfits to Disney:
Arminda and Lydia were wearing Belle and Ariel when I wore this:

I never thought to do anything for myself. I guess I'm just too busy with Kirsta. I love the Aurora on th dress. She would have even been cute peeking out on the white tank.

Wish I had a little baby around to put these on, cause I just don't think the hangers do them justice.

These are for twin baby girls that are due in April.

Jessica - way to go on the PhD! Woo Hoo! And I love the Valentines Dress - you always make great stuff!

The rompers are so cute! This is my fave...gotta love that red!

Great job on all of it! Love the twirl added to the vida - neat idea! And the bows look great!!! I have been thinking of trying my hand at bowmaking, but just haven't done it yet....those are so cute!

Awesome hat!!! Hope he is having a great day!

Love all your creations, but your Lilo is my favorite! Adorable! And your son's prince charming is amazing, too! Great job!

I'm finishing up Emmy's "pics with rabbits" dress today or tomorrow, and making Jack a matching tie. Hers is a scallopini made into a dress (simply sweet top with ruffled straps). Love, love, LOVE the scallopini! So cute and much easier than it looks! It's all done, I just have to embellish it. The tie will be a challenge as I have never done that before! Always up for something new...

Hi guys!

Love the rompers and all the baby stuff! Soooo cute! I get to sew some baby stuff for an upcoming shower...I am so excited to have a baby to sew for!

Love the adult stuff again Teresa...I am not sure I am doing matching stuff for me this year but I am going to make a matching messenger bag for me. So...I have a few to sew!


I re did all of my dining reservations yesterday. I had to change a few things since DH has to fly back on that Tuesday of our week. But I was happy to get all of the resturants that I was hopeful for. We are not doing any character dining this trip...i know...crazy! But with my picky eaters, character dining becomes somewhat of a waste on them. But, we are doing the pirates and pals cruise as a surprise for them and they will get some character interaction then.

DH will be home today from Vegas...YIPEE!...I hate it when he goes away! Tomorrow we are going to Ikea to buy my new desk for my new baby! Double Yipee! So, Friday I should get to play with it with any luck!

I just completed 2 more of the bubble rompers in the sleeveless version for an upcoming shower where I do not know the gender of the baby. Hopefully there is one side for each one that is not too girly!

Everything is sooooo cute!!! I think they will work well for a boy or girl.

I am going to make a romper for my neighbors new little one. I see that a lot of you embroider/applique on one side. Do you think this would bother the babies skin at all when the applique side is underneath??

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I haven't posted in a while (since I haven't been sewing) - I've popped in to ask a favor. If anyone here is a member of the Family Fun website could you please vote for me? I've entered the cake I made for my DS's 8th birthday. I'm going to try and post the link here, if not my entry is called "A Magical Birthday Cake". Thanks "sew" much!!

maybe, on some children. You never know, some have more sensitive skin than others.

Did you make the tink shirt too? If so, how did you do her shadow? Thanks! All your outfits were so cute!

????? Is anyone else having trouble staying logged in on the disboards? I keep logging in and telling it to remember me and when I come back a little while later I'm no longer logged in. It used to never do this, I could stay logged in all of the time.

I was having this problem last week, but it finally started working for me

A couple of things I wanted to share with you all if you have not seen them on FB yet:

What do you all think? Can you tell who inspired them?

Been busy with school and trying to get my FB and Etsy business going.

Oh, I have a question, a couple of things I have made I used some of Carla C's patterns. I know I have read here before that I should acknowledge her patterns, if I use them to sell things. I have no problem doing that but where would I put that info?...on my Etsy listing? on my info in my FB page? What do you ladies do? Thanks for all of your help everyone.

They look great. What a nice gift!

I just got the Farbenmix/Studio Tantrum book and love it. I've made a couple of the Insa skirts and they went together very easily. Now I'm ready to tackle the Feliz pattern. So my question is about a ruffler. I'd like to buy one but am confused about if I'm looking at the right one. I have the Brother CE 5000 (the machine from Wally World) which I think is low shank? Not even really sure what that means. I see a ruffler on Amazon that is $26 by Distinctive that says it fits all low shank machines. Anyone have any advice? I'd like to add bunches of ruffles but get really annoyed with hand gathering looong pieces. Thanks!!

I just got that foot myself just last week. I haven't even had a chance to play with it yet but it fits my white machine with is really identical to my brother. This link may help with which foot you have.

OK I'm off to dinner with DH. We were married 26 years ago today and I have been looking forward to this dinner with him for a few weeks now!

I may be wrong, but I do not believe that Carla requires that you include in listings that you have used her patterns. Some other pattern designers may require that, but I do not believe that Carla does.

Sorry I'm so full of questions lately! I just got the new JoAnn's flyer today, and there is a section of 8 coupons all good for the same week... Granted some of them are for floral and framing, but I see at least four could apply to fabric and then two on notions.

I was wondering since you can only use one coupon per purchase if anyone has ever tried to just make several "purchases" in one visit?? I live an hour round trip away from my JoAnns, so it's probably not feasible to visit them every day next week

Just wondering...

 

[t-beri]

I agree w/ Shannon, I don't think that Carla asks for any kind of acknowledgment.

What a generous baby gift! I love the bubble w/ the giraffe AND the boxes, I'd like to make a few of those for my girls' room.

At my local Joann's I have been able to use more than one coupon at a time. They just couldn't be on the same item.
I haven't gotten the new flyer. Hopefully I'll get it tomorrrow. When are the coupons for?
