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

[squirrel]

Adorable! Do you have a close up of that fabric?

I will get a picture for you!

This was in the clearance section and 50% off. I ended up paying $2 for a metre. I wasn't even planning on another dress for my niece-I was thinking of making more crayon roll-ups with it. But you have to buy a min. of a metre in the clearance section. Then I went back the next day to get some red broadcloth to make the bodice and decided to get more for the older niece, since I was already making one dress with it.

I just hope I can get all the dresses/outfits made that I have material for. I can't believe how much I have accumulated over the last few months. I have been making burpies and receiving blankets for the new nephew/niece that will arrive next month.

My daughter is 8 now . Any suggestions for a Tween pattern she needs at least a size 12 -14
I am hoping to do alot of sewing this month I miss it alot ...

That came out so sweet! I love big prints but they can be a challenge when working on a small dress. You worked it perfectly,.

Thanks, Lisa! I was a bit intimidated with the scale of the print, but I figured it wouldn't come out if I didn't try it! So, measure twice, cut once and in I went!

HEY! It's so good to see you post!
I sure hope you're going to be ok! Is your heart being treated?
TWEEN pattern - I would recommend the molly and/or megan pattern by Carla C (Actually, it's under the Sis Boom title at YCMT). One version is for children, the other is for adults. You can compare measurements on the site to make sure you get the right one. It's cute & modern looking. Perfect for tweens!

These are the dresses that kept me up to all hours of the night (morning) this past week! I made these for a fellow Diser who should have arrived at Disney today.


Belle dress, using the Princified Simply Sweet and Heathersue's applique designs (except for the book):

Back:

I really didn't like it before I added the roses.

And, Cinderella
I think this is my very favorite:

This was made with CarlaC's Precious Dress. I love that pattern!

And an Aurora princified Simply Sweet, with Heathersue's wonderful Sleeping Beauty collection!

I promise, the peplum is not crooked, even though it looks like it!
I actually had the peplum made in the lighter pink fabric, but then I realized I'd cut it wrong and didn't have enough fabric left to redo it! So, I made it from the pink. Disney does it that way, so I figured I could to!

Lastly, I made a Giselle and I'm not happy with the pictures, it looked so much cuter in person!

Those are really cut. My DGD like them andsaid she wanted the Cinderella dress. I told her she needed to tell Papa that I needed an embroidery machine so I can make her things like that. Hmmmm, I wonder if he'll fall for it.

YIKES!! Thanks for the warning - I got it really cheap last year on clearance...not positive Im wanting to work with that lol!!!

Thanks Tracie!! This is really incredible!!I love all the details!! you covered everything!! Thanks so much for making Daniel's trip a wonderful experience!! I really really appreciate all everyone is doing for him and his family!!! We were supposed to get together on Friday night, but he ended up being in the hospital - hold on - for a good reason - he got his PIC line out!!! This is truely a sign of the end of treatment to him!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see the precious too - but, I stink at that dress!! I only made it twice, and messed up the back both times - grrrrrrrr -

Teresa - your princess dresses are beautiful!! I love them all!!!

That is wonderful news. I got chills reading about it.

Thanks everyone, for your very kind comments on the dress! When I finished the dress last night, I wasn't sure if I loved it or not. There was a design flaw in my mind. After showing a few friends, they convinced me that I should leave it be. I'm so glad that I did! I love it today!

Let me see if I can answer questions. The fabric was purchased through a coop. The selvage says "Windham Fabric presents Adventures In Wonderland by Whistler Studios" There were several different prints available. I can't say that I realized that this print was so large scale when I ordered it, but I love it! The only thing I wish is that I had ordered more of the strip.

The patterns - I used my old faithfuls! Carla C's perfect trifecta - Easy Fit pants, Simply Sweet dress & portrait peasant top. Simple, straight forward and always the perfect palette for exactly what I want.

OK - here's the completed version!

and a close up of the bodice to show the print a bit better

That is so pretty!

I did a few tees for a woman who usually got things just for her boys. She wanted to coordinate somewhat so we did things like Tink to be worn when her boys had on Peter Pan tees. Most were characters I'd done before but I finally had a chance to do Jessie from Toy Story 2 (her boys were wearing Buzz and Woody tees, I believe).

I had a chance to make another decoupage set with applique and a modified Emma top. I really love the drama of the prints and colors I selected with the mom who wanted the set for her daughter.

Speaking of the Emma, I'm still having a lot of fun with the variations I've developed for it. I still haven't documented the variations for a tutorial but I did get photos of one variation so I'll try to get it put together for my blog soon. That variation is like the one in this Daisy set with the closed back that has elastic (the photos are actually of a dress I made with the Emma).

Once again.....everything is awesome!

Somehow, I missed the Alice set, it is just adorble! I don't see any flaw at all. Just darling. I love that print. I have the one from Fabric.com but it is not as large and colorful as that one. I will have a vid done soon and post it for you all.

And, Cinderella
I think this is my very favorite:

Teresa, I think they are all beautiful but that Cinderella looks just perfect! Where did you find the fabric? Since I have seen Cinderella's dress at Disney, I have been trying to fnd a similar print, and I think you have! It looks just perfect.

Thank you for the compliment on my niece. She is a little cutie .




LizaZoe (lost the quote) You know I am a big fan but I think I just fell off my chair when saw that Alice and the queen set! Alice looks like she was drawn right on the pants and the Queen is just amazing too! Just perfect! I am so envious.

 

[The Moonk's Mom]

Kim, I'm so sorry for your friend. What happened?

He fell from a tree while trimming it. I am not clear onthe details as to what happened, but I know that he trimmed trees on the side. His mother and father I know must be having a very difficult time. They are all members of my church back home. The funeral was back home this Friday and I so wanted to go, but there was no way I would be back in time to pick the kids up from school. I hope to get up to see her sometime this week. He was a firefighter as is his brother and father, so the crowd was very large. As it has been said so many times before in our group, hug your babies a little tighter tonight and say a prayer for those that have lost someone so dear.

 

[The Moonk's Mom]

Tracie - love the autograph book!

Teresa! What wonderful gowns! Love them all!!!

Cindee - thanks for posting the pictures….I was telling my Dad this morning about the outpouring of love that happened in such a small amount of time and couldn’t help but cry as I told him.

Shannon - I didn’t think I could like that dress any better…wrong! Just beautiful1

Lisa - I love the Jessie shirt! So cute! And I do love all the fabric on the Alice set…very pretty!



Okay - off to my danged DR's appt....I wasn't able to get it moved up, so I am going today. Mainly I dread the blood draw...I have been drinking water like crazy the last 24 hours...I have small rolly veins that don't poke well! UGH! Really, I don't think my GP will be able to do much, but at least I will get the ball rolling on this mess anyway...only to see another DR that will probably want more blood! UGH!!!!!!

 

[aboveH20]

Tracie - What a wonderful journal. It will be a great remembrance of the trip even if he never writes anything in it! I love the way you made it so easy to add just a couple words or check marks here and there (can you tell I have sons?) with pictures that are a sounvenirs by themselves.

Very Nice!

I know what you mean, I have 2 boys. My older one would write on the journaling page but the younger one might not even fill in the one word answers. I did want to give Daniel a place to write more thoughts if he wants or Mom and Dad can write on the other side of each park page. You can't really see them but there is a photo album page between the pages to put pics from each park also. So Wendy better take lots of shots to fill his great scarpbook and the journal too.

These make me wish I had a little girl! Not that I could make them!
But I would buy them!!!!

 

[tricia]

Those Woody and Jessie dresses are adorable.

I suggest adding a loop to the back of the front tie piece, though, so you can tuck and hide the back tie piece (if that makes sense...)

The dress and the tie are great. Can't wait to see the shots with the bunnies.

My boys always tuck the back piece of their ties into their shirts way up near the top.

That is really pretty. She looks great in it.

Really, really cute.

That is great Shannon, I just saw the completed outfit too and you have outdone yourself.

I made this yesterday. It's not for WDW. It's not shorter on one side than the other, just the photo that makes it look like that.

Cute, I think I have a fat quarter of that fabric in my stash. It looks very familiar.

That is great. I have no talent at all for that sort of thing, so I am amazed at what people do.

Oh my, those curtains do look like a very large project. Good job. The alines and the bowling shirt look great.

Love them all Teresa, but I have to say, that cinderella is my fav too.

I

Lisa, your work is amazing.

That IS a good reason to go to the hospital! So happy for him!

Thank You for the kind words about the journal, I hope it adds some magic for Daniel.

Since I have seen Cinderella's dress at Disney, I have been trying to fnd a similar print, and I think you have! It looks just perfect.

I also love Teresa's fabric and was going to ask the same question! And I love the border design!

I'm sure it will come as no surprise to anyone here that I am constantly in search of the best fabric to replicate Cindy's dress. I actually found this piece on Ebay recently and made the dress a couple days ago:

It's the closest I've found yet. We're going at Christmas time, so I'm also making a matching jacket like Cindy sometimes wears that time of year. I'm still mulling over the details of that one in my mind....

And I also FINALLY just bought the PERFECT fabric to make Ariel's green land gown. I've been wanting to do that one FOREVER and can't wait!

Im on it Tracie!!! Im also good about sharing my camera with kids - so Im hoping to get him to shoot a few pictures of things that are special specifically to him or pictures that I snap of any special magic that may happen - those would be really cool for in his Journal!!!

[tricia]

Got some stuff finished up this weekend. First, a penguin costume for my little cousin for a skating concert. Tyler, DS8, designed and did the feet for this.



It was really last minute, so there are a lot if imperfections. Also, I can never get anything to hang nicely for pics.

Then 2 dresses for a Big Give.

Many thanks! And yes, we were there 12/08 and LOVED it. Last year we chose to go for Halloween, but the heat did me in. I'm back to December again and can't wait!

And what AWESOME news about Daniel's PIC line!!!
