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

[Cibahwewah]

Do you have any bigger pictures of the outfits? These look so cute but I'm having a hard time seeing the details. That is so clever to make the a-line and easy fits into a Jon Jon! I would love more pictures to see just how you did that![/QUOTE]

Sorry my pics turn out small Theresa. I use iPhoto and Photobucket and that's what size they turn out. I took some more pics for you, but now they look too dark, sorry, here goes:

I made the pattern pieces from the A-line and free-handed the bottoms, taking in the sides a bit.

I didn't take pics in the process, so bear with me here. I joined the two back panel halves from neckline to crotch. Then, with right-sides facing, I stitched together the tops and sides (just like the A-line, but you can stitch both sides rather in the beginning rather than save one for the end. I then separated the layers (think mirror image pants like in Carla's reversible easy fits tutorial on her blog). Then I did the crotch seam for each individual "bottom." I turned it right side out by turning through one leg hole, and finished the leg hems by topstitching over a 1/2 inch inverted fold. Clear as mud? Sorry, I've never made a tutorial.

Crotch shots--showing butt room for diaper-wearing!

Close-up of top--I super-sewed on those buttons--don't want choking hazards!

Reverse side. Pardon me for not taking the time to unbutton and rebutton.

Close-up of leg hem finishing. I finished the baby girl bloomers the same way, but made a casing for elastic.

Better pic of the baby girl set. Sorry about the previous ones, I shouldn't have used a white background and flash--too washed out.

Since I was talking about my Gramma--here's a pic of her 1975 Singer stylist that I use. It's great, no problems at all, and since it's all metal, probably better quality than today's plastic. And this is me at age 4 wearing a Dutch girl costume she made me using this machine.

Love the dress! I keep saying I'm not making anything else for Easter, but I have just a little more egg fabric that keeps calling my name....

Hope you have a great time on your cruise!

Love it!

Hmmm....would look cute as a criss cross top dress? Whatever you make, these fabrics are so beautiful, I am sure it will be great!

Awesome curtains! We have always lived in military housing and never had curtains - when we make our big move this fall I am going to make us some for the new house (even though it will probably be housing again, I don't care - we will be there three years and I am decorating it up!).

Got the sewing bug this weekend though, and made an appliqued reversible A-line and a bowling shirt.

For those of you who applique by hand, like the awesome LisaZoe, how do you keep your lines smooth? I try to go fast when possible and really slow around curves (like HeatherSue instructs), but I still end up with a wobbly line look sometimes.

Love the dress and bowling shirt. And, all of my appliques to this point are by hand (though nowhere as awesome as Lisa's! I do have wavy lines sometimes, no matter what I do. I just figure it is like my hubby's grandma always says "Mistakes are hugs and kisses!" She signs that on all her letters, and I love the saying!

Beautiful! Love them all! But Aurora is my fave...my daughter loves her, so I have a soft spot for her!

FANTASTIC! I absolutely love it! And I can't wait to see Ariel!

If we get to go for Christmas, I think we will be arriving as you are leaving - we will get there around December 17. Who knows - maybe we will pass each other at some point! I have never been at Christmas and really want to see the parks all decked out.

You and Tyler did a great job on this! Awesome!

And here is a Wizard of Oz outfit I made as well!

Love both sets! So cute! She is going to be stylin on her surprise trip!

[/IMG]

Beautiful! Love it!

Lisa, that is my fave Donald EVER!!! He just looks so excited! And love the new patttern, too!

If anyone can squeeze me in a prayer tonight I'd be really grateful - our best friends have just lost their daughter, Erin at just two weeks old. She was born at 26 weeks and had been very very poorly, so I know she's in a better place, but I feel so much for her mum and dad.

Praying for this family...my heart aches for them...

I FINALLY took pictures of my new Alice set. The hat was alot of fun to make! It was 60 degrees out today, so we got lots of pictures

​

WOW!!!! Love the whole set!!!! It just pops!

Agent P!!!! LOVE IT!!! Phineas and Ferb are huge hits in this house! I have both a shirt and a dress lined up to make soon. Can't wait! Yours is awesome and I LOVE it!

Since I was talking about my Gramma--here's a pic of her 1975 Singer stylist that I use. It's great, no problems at all, and since it's all metal, probably better quality than today's plastic. And this is me at age 4 wearing a Dutch girl costume she made me using this machine.

What a special memory, to be able to use your Grandma's sewing machine. Mine was gone ten years this month, and I still miss her so much. Love the pic of you as the little Dutch girl!

Just finishing up my big give stuff for Noah today, and hope to have pics to post soon. My first ever t-shirt appliques and I am pretty happy with how they are turning out!​

Hi!
If you make cute boutique style for kids to wear to disney, I would love to interview you!
I write about Walt Disney World for about.com, and am working on a series of articles about kids. You can see a piece I did on the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique here:

http://goflorida.about.com/od/whatthereistodo/a/wdw_bbboutique.htm

I have made some cute boutique style dresses for my own girls, but I am not a pro--I would love the chance to spotlight a seller or sellers who serve this market.

A few guidelines:

1. I do not need any samples or anything like that, I just want to chat with you about what people are looking for and *why* you think boutique wear is popular.

2. I would be able to promote your store if you have one with a photo (with your permission), and photo credit but can't offer compensation at this time.

3. You can't mis-use the Disney licensed characters. A cute outfit for the animal kingdom made from animal themed fabric is great--photo-copy transfering an image protected by license is not. This article is skirting a somewhat grey area, and while I have approval from my editor, I don't want to cross any copyright/license boundaries.

I love handmade, and love Disney, and every time we go, people ask about our outfits, so I think this will be a great topic to cover!

I hope this is the right place, but please let me know if it is not
Thanks so much!
Samantha

Loveeeee the Cindy drees! Great job.

 

[NiniMorris]

TVGIRLMIN....I know what you mean about base housing. The only difference was I always put curtains up first thing! I had a whole box of different sizes and colors. I would never hem them, I just used diaper pins (something I ALWAYS seemed to have) to put the new hem in the right place! (once or twice I used masking tape! LOL) When we finally retired after 20 years...I threw them all away and bought/made new ones!

I still get teased a lot about my moving "traditions!" First thing up is curtains, second thing is pictures, third is my cuckoo clock! Then I worry about the furniture etc! It cam be home iwthout furniture, but not pictures!


Love everything I am seeing lately. I just don't have a lot of time to quote and post...GD2 is staying with me today! First time since surgery, and she is a handfull! She is not at all happy with not being able to walk...and she thinks if she gets in the wheelchair she gets to go shopping! She is getting pretty good at scooting around on the floor...(doctor said we weren't supposed to let her do that...I just laughed, the doctor obviously doesn't know Princess Alyssa very well!

​

Awesome set. All the work and creativity you put into your sets really shows in the end result. Great job.

It feels good to sew again. I want to sew all day.

I'm out of practice. I need to brush up on my applique skills again.

I cut this out 6mos ago. DS has been begging me to make his Perry shirt, but I had lost motivation. I waited so long that I had to buy him a larger shirt to put it on.

Please, please, please don't let my son see this. I have enought to do right now. Great job.

I just wanted to give everyone a head's up about some of the new Disney ribbon/notions at JoAnn's.

My DD13 and a friend were picking out a bunch of ribbon for hair doo-dads they are selling, and one of us picked up a little spool (3 yds.) of shiny pink Disney ribbon. The price wasn't on the spool or the shelf, and to tell you the truth, I wasn't too concerned-- how much could it be, right?

When scanning the receipt to return a different item (after all the ribbon was used up), I saw that it had rung up at $18.99!

I did double check when I returned to the store and that is the correct price. I also noticed that in that particular JoAnn's, none of the Disney stuff is marked, so buyer beware. (The clerk did mention that I wasn't the first person who came back to check it...)

FWIW-- Although I am extremely irritated by this, it was my fault for not watching things as they rang up. I will still regularly shop at JoAnn's, but I will be more careful in the future. I'm just thankful we did not pick up more of the Disney ribbons!

Of course, since I will be at Joanns on Friday I will have to check this out. Must be laced with gold or something for it to be that much money.

The second one is for a baby boy, also 3rd child, and 3rd boy. She doesn't really "need" anything, but is having a shower anyway to "celebrate." I had this 15 year old fabric from when my Gramma (who is now in heaven and I have her sewing machine) made me some scrub tops for my first medical assistant job prior to going to med school. She was (and still is, I'm sure) proud of me, and thought I needed some kiddie-themed scrub tops since I was at a pediatric office. This was before kiddie-themed scrub tops became the norm. Anyway, this was my first Franken-pattern. I used an A-line top with the reversible easy fit bottom for the leg openings, and used 2 pieces rather than one for the back panel so it could have that little triangle at the crotch that provides "butt room." I'm happy with the way it turned out.

My DS6 and I made a small quilt from flannel scraps today. Remember my Christmas flannel pajama sewing binge/disaster? I controlled the pedal and he guided the fabric and cut the threads, in addition to laying out and piecing together all the scraps. He was quite proud of his creation. It turned out smaller than intended because he got tired and wanted to go to bed, but not without his new quilt. I didn't get a pic of it before bedtime--it ain't pretty, but it's his creation, and that makes it cute.

Both really cute outfits. WTG, on making the pattern for the romper.

Don't ya love it when the boys get involved? My DS has made a few rag quilts, and a pair of PJ bottoms now too. You must post, so we can all tell him what a great job he did. My DS loves it when I post on here and he can read all the positive comments.​

I FINALLY took pictures of my new Alice set. The hat was alot of fun to make! It was 60 degrees out today, so we got lots of pictures

The HAT!!

That came out really cute! The hat is so fun and a nice way to accessorize for a girl who isn't into bows.

That's me too!! I'm rearranging my sewing room at the minute and I keep finding little bits and scraps all over the place, but can't bring myself to throw anything out - just in case!!!!

I'm doing better simply because I'm trying to limit myself to one large bin of scraps (that doesn't include the fabric I have for applique). I'm also trying to do better about ordering the amount of fabric I really need or as close as the site will allow. I used to just round up to the nearest yard or added even more but I only do that now if it's a basic coordinate that will work with many other prints or that I know I'll use again soon.

Flesh tone? When you do an appliqué of one of the princesses what do you use for flesh tone? I keep walking around Joann's and wondering but I can't find it. I am assuming it's some version of cotton but is there a specific fabric or name of something I should be looking for.

Thanks for your help.

I use Kaufman's Kona Cotton in Flesh. Our local JoAnn's and quilt shop don't carry it so I have to order it online. They also have it in 'Light Flesh'.

Lisa, that is my fave Donald EVER!!! He just looks so excited! And love the new patttern, too!

Thank you! Donald was done to be worn by the brother of the little girl who will wear the B&W Daisy set I shared earlier. I wanted them both to have a similar expression so I was happy to find one of Donald that worked... with a little tweaking.

 

[disneygirlsanddrew]

Can any of you recommend a great site to purchase an embroidery file for barbie's silhouette and the word "Barbie" in the Barbie font (not the old block type font but the newer more scripty font)? I would like to get the outfit I am working on done today if possible! Thanks!

Unless the wonderful Heather is going to design one? Hint - hint!

 

[tmh0206]

ok, i am not very computer savvy and need some help with how the ped basic software is supposed to work...i have it uploaded to my computer now and when i plug in the card writer it is now showing up on the screen and blinking red, but when i try to upload a pes design, how do i do this?/??? any help on the steps to make this work would be greatly appreciated! sorry to sound stupid, i just keep reading the instructions and i am not getting it. teach me please!!!

 

[MermaidTales]

I said I wasn't going to create anything for the cruise. My machine decided to have a fit and stop working. I just fixed her on Friday and got the itch - I had to make something! (though this doesn't have any embroidery on it - still!)
This is incomplete - still have to put the casing in the easy fits that will be a part of this outift - as well as a peasant top. But, here's the dress.

I'll post the complete thing when it's finished (hopefully this afternoon). I've got one more thing that I want to make before the cruise, then I've gotta get packing!

Beautiful dress and what gorgeous fabric you used!

 

[desparatelydisney]

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:

the best, most be-you-tee-full cindy dress ever!!! (and I have put this in caps 3 times, why won't it capitalize it?!) You never cease to amaze me

 

[TinkerbelleMom]

Flesh tone? When you do an appliqué of one of the princesses what do you use for flesh tone? I keep walking around Joann's and wondering but I can't find it. I am assuming it's some version of cotton but is there a specific fabric or name of something I should be looking for.

Thanks for your help.

I get mine at the solid section where all the Kona cottons and Country Classics solid quilt fabrics are...and I used the one that is actually called "Flesh". HTH

I'll second that! It seems to sell out fast at my Joann's, so I bought 2 yards the last time they had it, and haven't seen it since.

Since I was talking about my Gramma--here's a pic of her 1975 Singer stylist that I use. It's great, no problems at all, and since it's all metal, probably better quality than today's plastic. And this is me at age 4 wearing a Dutch girl costume she made me using this machine.

Does that machine have a teal green front on it? If so, that was my very first sewing machine! My mom was a home-ec teacher, and whenever they upgraded to something new,(usually every 2 years, back in the day!) the school sold the old machines for a pitiful amount, so she always bought a few to resell herself, but she kept one for me, saving it for a few years before letting me have it. When I got in trouble (especially for bad grades) that was the first thing to go. Most kids lost tv priveleges, I lost my sewing machine. I've still got it, and it runs great, I don't have a cabinet for it anymore, but I've still got lots of accessories for it. The buttonhole attatchment made the easiest buttonholes ever, probably as good as the digital machines today.

 

[desparatelydisney]

I am making the car seat cover that was featured on YCMT last week/month for a fellow DISer and Disney TA. I REALLY want to find some mickey swirl fabric and I have totally failed in all my search attempts. Does anybody know where I could find some?

 

[TinkerbelleMom]

I just read this on my fav travel site...http://www.gadling.com/2010/03/10/disney-ends-free-ticket-program-after-1-million-volunteers-sign/ Those of you who already signed up are ok, but anyone else who wanted a chance missed it I guess.

I use the Kona cotton too, I get it at Hobby Lobby. It is SOOO nice!! The applique designs stitch out so much nicer on a nice cotton like that!

Sorry my pics turn out small Theresa. I use iPhoto and Photobucket and that's what size they turn out. I took some more pics for you, but now they look too dark, sorry, here goes:

Thanks for the pictures of the outfits! That is just such a neat idea, I had never thought to do that! I love the little girl set, it is just precious.

OH, and I love the bonus pictures of the sewing machine and you in your cute little Dutch girl outfit!!! SOOO CUTE!!!

Beautiful! Love them all! But Aurora is my fave...my daughter loves her, so I have a soft spot for her!

Thank you so much! I was sooooo soooooo tired when I was working on these, I really hoped they would turn out!

Are you running Windows Vista or Windows 7? If you are, you are not suppose to install the CD software on your computer, you need to download it from the Brother site.

Make sure your reader is plugged in and you have a card in the slot.

Can you open up the PED Basic software from your Program Menu (or if it's like mine, it installed a shortcut on my toolbar, I click that)?

If you already have the PES files on your computer and you can open the PED software, click on the little file folder at the top of the window that opens up.

Click on the folder where you have your embroidery designs, click "Ok"

They should now show up on the left side of your screen. If they don't, make sure your files are in PES format and that they are all unzipped.

Once they are showing up, click on the one(s) you want to put on your card, then hit the arrow button in the middle of the screen.

The design will now show up on the right side of the screen.

This will transfer your designs to your card. It will warn you that it will overwrite all existing designs on the card, (like when you erase the pictures from the memory card on your camera). click ok, or continue or whatever it is.

It will tell you to wait a minute, then it will pop up that the transfer is complete.

Take the card out of the reader and put it in your machine.

I only have a Brother 270D, but on my machine, when the card is in and the embroidery unit is on, there is a little symbol that looks kind of like the memory card, I click that and it will show all my designs that are on my card.

Click the one you want to stitch, and you should be good to go.

When you have all the designs on the right side you want, click the arrow thingy on the bottom of the right side of the screen.

If anyone can squeeze me in a prayer tonight I'd be really grateful - our best friends have just lost their daughter, Erin at just two weeks old. She was born at 26 weeks and had been very very poorly, so I know she's in a better place, but I feel so much for her mum and dad.

Oh no...that is just so sad. I'm so sorry.

I would love to vote for Teresa, I have been trying since that was posted. I can't for the life of me get them to send me a verification email. I tried, and tried, and tried again just now.

What am I doing wrong?

You're probably not doing anything wrong! But, it seems that if you sign up with a hotmail, yahoo, or gmail account, you get the confirmation e-mail right away. It's a glitchy site!

I FINALLY took pictures of my new Alice set. The hat was alot of fun to make! It was 60 degrees out today, so we got lots of pictures

I'm loving these temps we're having this week!!! Tessa walked outside yesterday, took a deep breath, and said "It smells like Disney in the Fall."

This outfit is fantastic!! GREAT work!!

It feels good to sew again. I want to sew all day.

I'm out of practice. I need to brush up on my applique skills again.

I cut this out 6mos ago. DS has been begging me to make his Perry shirt, but I had lost motivation. I waited so long that I had to buy him a larger shirt to put it on.

Great job!! He looks perfect!

Heather Sue, what kind of camera do you have? Are you using the Nifty Fifty on the automatic setting, or have you tried one of the others, maybe aperture priority or shutter priority?

Using that lens should enable you to use a faster shutter speed because you can get a wider open aperture letting in more light.

The folks over on the photography board are awesome and would gladly answer any questions you have on how to get the most out of that lens. I know just enough to be dangerous, but would be happy to answer any basic questions. It's generally regarded as a pretty great lens for the money.

I have a Canon Rebel XSI. It's a great camera, with a mediocre operator. I have no idea which settings are best for which situations. I almost always take pictures indoors. The few that I took with the nifty fifty lense made my kids look like ghosts, they were so white! Do you know which settings would take the best shots indoors, of moving targets? Thank you for offering to help!

My DS6 and I made a small quilt from flannel scraps today. Remember my Christmas flannel pajama sewing binge/disaster? I controlled the pedal and he guided the fabric and cut the threads, in addition to laying out and piecing together all the scraps. He was quite proud of his creation.

Those are SOO cute! I love how you modified the A-line for a boy!! We're going to have to get Carla to take a look at that! How sweet that your son made a quilt! Isn't it fun when they take an interest in what you do?
I love the dutch girl outfit your grandma made you. That is so sweet!

Hope the beautiful outfits keep coming once the weather gets nice enough to go outside (for some of us). Here are a few things I have done over the last 2 weeks.

These are Easter dresses for my three girls, my cousin/Goddaughter and another cousin. I haven't finished the pink one becasue I am still waiting for the little model to come over so I can get her fit right. They are going to look like little Easter eggs! I can't wait until Easter to try to get a mass twirl skirt twirlability photo.

The chain hanging is out countdown to Disney!

This is a tiered twirl skirt for my 7 year old Brownie. It's such cute fabric!
