Disboutiquers Part 20 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[Stephres]

You are so sweet Sawyer's doing good. He hasn't had another seizure, thankfully. Right now I'm freaking out about his ginormous red, stinky, tonsils. He has an appointment with an ENT in May, but it seems so far away!

I can attest his tonsils are enormous! I hope the ent can do something and I bet it would help his sleep and stinkiness, poor baby! They are almost as big as Pierre's ears.

Thanks for the comments, I didn't have a little girl modeling the skirt so I forgot to show everyone until Heather reminded me. I'm glad you guys found the tutorial helpful (hope so!).

 

[mom2rtk]

Wow, thank you for the overwhelming love and support/prayers expressed on my Facebook page! I hadn't even made an official "statement" and I have so many comments from so many of my Disboutiquer friends.

It was March 16th when my mom was given the diagnosis of lung cancer. She declined any treatment, and my dad expressed a desire to care for her at home. Last night, in her own bedroom with my dad sleeping nearby, she passed away peacefully in her sleep.
My sister-in-law was there (my siblings had been spending nights so Dad wouldn't be alone). My dad, bless his heart, got up and made his bed and tidied up the bedroom before the hospice nurse arrived. Heaven forbid the nurse find the bed unmade, LOL!
I will be traveling with 2 of my siblings to Arkansas on Saturday.

I know I take your warm thoughts and prayers with me, and I thank you.

Darla

Darla, I will keep you all in my prayers. I'm glad she was able to go peacefully and without a prolonged period of pain. May you have a peaceful and safe journey.

Wanted to keep you guys up to date on my sewing. I made a charm skirt for a cute little girl:

And a matching top:

My machine is on its last legs I think. It will not zig zag without dropping stitches. I have had it serviced, cleaned and I used two sheets of stabilizer and different needles. Nothing works. It used to be so dependable. I think I might really have to start learning how to use the embroidery machine that has been mocking me for months in the corner.

To cheer myself up I decided to try the Emma Swing Top with a closed back. It really wasn't much more difficult than the original pattern. I updated my blog with directions and pictures describing how I did it.

The link to my blog is in my signature. Thanks for looking!

I really like the skirt and tee. The tee design is a perfect way to tie in multiple prints from the skirt.

Did you line the back of the revised Emma top? I eliminate that as well as the contrast lining when I do the closed back variation. I have photos of one in progress that I made months ago intending to write a tutorial for my blog. If your version is done with the lining, I'll go ahead and still get a tutorial written for the way I do it.

I'm sorry for the loss but glad your family was able to be with her for the end. That's one thing we didn't have a chance to do when my mom passed. We'd planned to bring her home for hospice care but she was gone so much sooner than we'd expected and didn't have time to get things in motion to bring her home.

I posted the video in my other multi quote, but here is Sawyer freaking out!!! Thanks for letting me post this again!!!

and, in case you missed the video earlier:


And, just because I love this dress and the look on Lydia's face:

and, of course I can't stop there

Sawyer desperately trying to ignore Drizella and just eat his food in peace!

I love Drizella!!

and, just because the girls are too cute and I love all their dresses (Heather made Tessa's pink Cinderella dress and I mad the rest)

Thanks for giving me an excuse to repost these!!!

This has to be some of the funniest video I've ever seen! Just love it! And they are all so cute!

Ok I know I have been completely MIA for too long.... hope you gals still remember me! Things were just too crazy with Dee in Iraq (and getting used to him being home again).... but I am finally back to sewing now.... I'll have to upload some new pictures tonight, I've made Taylor a ton of outfits recently.... and when I listed some of her used outfits from last year's trip (on the site that should not be named) I got a ton of requests for custom orders....so I have finally been busy sewing away again.

Dee actually rearranged a good chunk of the house when he came home.... he turned what was our small office/den into the guest room, and made the guest room (which is much much bigger) a kinda half office half sewing space with a wall of table space for my sewing machine/embroidery machine/serger another wall full of cubbie things that go almost floor to ceiling and I have finally got all my fabric nice and organized, and I have another little area with bins full of ribbon and a work space to make bows. It has been sooooo nice having my own space to work and sew without cramming onto the desk or working at the dining room table. I guess I will have to take some pictures of my new work space and post. Hopefully it will help me stay productive and get lots and lots of things made.....of course once Dee saw how much some of Taylor's used things sold for, he is treatening to open a sweatshop in our house now that I have my own space. I hope he is joking.... but for those of you who remember he is the one who jokingly told me I better learn to sew and stop spending so much money on customs.... and then laughed when I said I was going to. It is such a huge compliment that he now appreciates my work, and admits how surprised he was that I learned so quickly.

Now I feel totally out of the loop.... I'm going to have to go at least skim at look at pictures of things I've missed while I was away, but I know I can't read it all. I also deactivated facebook (long story...) so I have missed everything lately.... but what happened to stitchontime? I sent Claire and email asking how I was missing the mickey designs and she responded with a generic "can't fullfill this request due to copyright blah blah".... so did she get in trouble? Heather is ok right? Heather has always been my fav, but I know she can only digitize so much at once, and I know Claire had a bunch of Disney Cruise line designs (we are gonna take a cruise this year and need a ton of new applique designs).... I've seen a few other sites, but their prices are sooooo much higher then Claires and Heathers are..... Anyone know what happened? Claire was a FB friend, but I deactivated, so if she said something I missed it...... is there really no way to get her designs even off site? Please PM me and fill me in if you know anything..... and Heather.... please get busy digitizing more for us lol jk! I am totally bummed that I didn't just buy every great design I saw even if I didn't need it at the time, because I know there were soooooo many I wanted someday!

Hey Miranda! Glad to see you back and I can't wait to see more of your cute outfits!

Hello everyone I have been so busy... My daughter changed her mind and wants a Mad hatter Tea party for her birhtday so this is what i have been working on. This dress is for the DD2 now i have to work on the DD7 she wants a Alice dress with a apron with Alice on the front. Wish me luck i have never made anything like that. Oh keep in mind i painted the scenes Sitll cant embroider like you guys.

I am so inspired by everyones pictures they are so great

So wonderful! Your painting is fantastic!

I can understand needing to vent, I do that once in awhile myself! I'm glad you are ok with it now.



I am having a horrible time with my sewing machines right now!

On Saturday night, I was working on an order for the Safari Minnie dresses that I HAD to have out on Monday, I tried to thread my Brother 270D, not realizing that the needle was still down. (it automatically threads with a cartridge thing) well, the threader hit the needle, and part of it flew off. I can't figure out how to get it back on. (I posted pictures on Facebook, I'll repost here in case someone can figure out HOW to get this piece back on. I dread going into the Brother dealership to have them look at it. Let's just say there are VERY VERY WEIRD! )

This is the piece that broke off:

It goes on the thingy on the right with the spring on it, somehow:

bcLydia posted a picture of it when it's not down, but I still can't figure out how it hooks on.


Then, I was sewing yesterday, and my faithful Viking decided it was tired or something. Now, my needles keep hitting the face plate, bending and breaking! I don't know how that happened, or how to fix it.

Luckily, our cousin lent me her Viking Rose machine, and it is sewing like a dream! (knock on wood!) It's an embroidery machine, but I can't get the card reader she gave me with it to work on my computer, so I can't embroider with it. I think it needs software and cords that I don't have!

Anwyay, that's my long whine of the day (or at least the morning!)

Hope it gets better Teresa! And Big Red is a popular soda here in Texas that I think tastes like a combo of cream and strawberry soda. It's really sweet and not my favorite. You can even get it in some restaurants (usually the ones that only serve Royal Crown sodas - no Coke or Pepsi products).

I had a really fun weekend of washing everything in our house and vacuuming everything. We had a friend of Tessa's spend the night on Saturday, only to wake up and find lice in her hair on Sunday morning! UGH!!!! I'm so scared that we're going to get it now. There are 3 kids in Tessa's class with lice.

Been there done that! And I don't wish it on anybody. Grace and Claire have caught them twice. The first time it was at private swim lessons. A woman from a different culture (one that normally lives with lice) was caught just picking them out of her daughters hair . Of course, the girls when they went back for their lessons just tossed their towels all together. We had it two days later. Then Grace caught it again at school in February. Her class has had 3 major outbreaks of them (the school only notifies you if there are more than 4 students with the same thing - lice, strep, chicken pox - whatever). Grace and Claire are constantly in each other's beds so Claire had them too.

Make sure you wash and dry everything (I send Darren to the laundromat so we can get it all done at once, instead of 30 loads at home) even mattres pads, comforters, and blankets. If you do end up with them, buy the comb called LiceMeister. It's around $15 but so much better than ones that come with Rid or Nix. We usually but the Rid, and do that the first day then Nix the second day. We come it out everyday with the LiceMeister comb. Days 3-9 we use Lice MD (this doesn't contain any pesticide but is the consistency of vaseline). It really conditions their hair but is really difficult to wash out. It takes about 3 times with shampoo to get it out. Then day 10 we use the Rid again and the next day the Nix. Usually after the second day I don't find anymore eggs, but I keep combing it out as a precaution. All it takes is one egg to hatch. My whole head itches just thinking about it! Darren, Lilly and I have never caught it thankfully! I saw that Courtney Cox caught it from her daughter once. Yuck! I know they like clean hair/heads but it's so gross!

Wanted to keep you guys up to date on my sewing. I made a charm skirt for a cute little girl:

Love the charm skirt outfit! Very cute! And I love your revisions on the Emma top too. Wish my older girls would fit into that pattern - but they are around a size 8. Doesn't it only go up to a size 6?

Hi Everyone. Shardai just posted on FB that she's having a REALLY difficult time right now and could really use the prayers

Is there some way we can tell her that we are thinking of her and praying for her?

 

[lollipopsandgiggles]

I've never heard of Big Red!


That is so sweet! I love that you're just going with it!


Caleb's shirts are so cool! That kid is getting so big! I can't believe how old he looks! I remember when he was just a little squirt! The Dash on the back of the shirt looks fantastic!!

I can't express in writing how much I LOOOVE the patchwork twirl and the Walt/Mickey shirt. I seriously, really, really, really, really LOOOOOVE it!! Now I think I need to make one for our May trip and I really don't have time!


Oooh!!! I love the Toy Story fabrics!! They're all so cute!


Aww.... I'm sorry you couldn't make it work- especially after spending all that time on it. When I made the shirt, I did the applique on a piece of stabilizer and then I cut around the design, used a sharpie to color the edges of the white stabilizer black, and then sewed it onto my shirt with invisible thread. You could also stitch it onto wash away stabilizer, rinse the stabilizer away, and then stitch that onto the shirt. Or, you can just try it again right onto the shirt. I love that shirt! When I get a stain on the one I have (I always do), I'll make myself a new one!

That is LOT of shirts!!!!


I remember the song, but not the visual from it! It makes me a tear up a bit.


When I first started digitizing I wasn't going to include the thread chart because I never used them. I'm glad to hear that you like that I include them! Would it be better if I started including a jpg image of what the design will look like when it's done, like I have in the listings? It would take me a while to do that since I have 270 designs, but I could start trying to do that with my new ones.


I fail to see what was so funny.


That picture cracks me up every time I see it! It is probably my all-time favorite Disney picture! Poor Sawyer!

I can't believe how young Lydia and Tessa look in that picture. It's hard to believe that was almost 2 years ago!


Awww..that's really cute!!


You don't even know how funny it is that you say I'm a rock star in your house. I'm SUCH a dork! But, thank you!


That is such a cute idea! I think anyone would love a gift like that! I'd like one for myself! Plus, they used some of my favorite Brother Sister fabric for the example!



Hi Miranda!! I'm so glad to see you again! I'm glad to hear that everything is better than it had been.


Your artwork is so wonderful! I love that you can paint on clothes and make them look so nice! These outfits are GREAT! I sent you a PM about the cutie Jasmine.


This is why you NEED to win that contest!!


YAY for your upcoming trip!! I'd like to take the kids back in December this year, but I want to wait and see if they come out with some cheap rates at Pop first.


I want to!

Heather I just sent you a PM. Thanks again for the compliment

 

[karamat]

Can you guys hear that screaming? That's CarlaC's bowling shirt pattern crying out for help! I think it feels overworked! I've been busy sewing, sewing, sewing! We've got a little less than 2 months and I've started feeling the crunch! I counted today and I think I have about 14 or so more outfits planned! Obsessive much? No, not me!

Anyway. . . get ready for big picture overload!

Caleb's Stitch bowling shirt

Caleb's Dash bowling shirt

Ella's Disney patchwork twirl skirt/partners statue shirt - I cased from someone - I know IrelandNicole had one planned, but I think she cased from someone else? Although, I added the quote because I thought it would be perfect with this outfit! I have to admit - I LOVE how it turned out! I didn't do the skirt super twirly because I wanted to be able to see the fabrics pretty well. . . THANKS HeatherSue for some awesome designs! They totally made the outfit. Oh, and you can't really tell from the photo, but the applique fabric has silver sparkles in it and the quote is done in silver thread.

So cute!! And the kids have gotten so big.

I love the top you used for Ella. Would you mind sharing the pattern? Looks good for the hot Texas summer that will be here soon.

 

[WelovMickey!]

I know, I know...Heather Sue!


Nini

Heather Sue... I looked and I am in love! Now I need to get some designs and buy an embroidery machine. In that order lol!

I finally sewed some yesterday after ruining the dress I was working on a few weeks ago.

The fabric is super cute and the ruffles look perfect! Great job!

You have a talent for painting! They look amazing.

SO it's time, I suppose to start my infamous Disney Trip Customs Binder. We don't have "official" plans but the friends we normally vacation w/ (at Halloween) have already booked their time share. for....drum roll, please! the first week of December. OUR FIRST MVMCP!!!! I hope that the beginning of the month won't be as busy. I can't wait but it sure does make planning customs hard. Even living here it's hard to say what the weather will be like so I guess I stock up on leggings and long sleeved tees for underneath jumpers. The best part? this will be Violets first trip so I get to make matchy customs for the girls!!! Bad part is I still don't have an applique machine LOL.
We'll be planning for every park. So that's a lot of customs and even though Mac will be 12.5 I know he will want shirts to match them. DORK (totally my kid) AHHH!!! It's so nice to have a trip to plan for. Just thinking about a WDW trip makes me happy.

mmmm...a Disney Trip Custom Binder sounds intriguing! Care to share?

Wow, thank you for the overwhelming love and support/prayers expressed on my Facebook page! I hadn't even made an official "statement" and I have so many comments from so many of my Disboutiquer friends.

It was March 16th when my mom was given the diagnosis of lung cancer. She declined any treatment, and my dad expressed a desire to care for her at home. Last night, in her own bedroom with my dad sleeping nearby, she passed away peacefully in her sleep.
My sister-in-law was there (my siblings had been spending nights so Dad wouldn't be alone). My dad, bless his heart, got up and made his bed and tidied up the bedroom before the hospice nurse arrived. Heaven forbid the nurse find the bed unmade, LOL!
I will be traveling with 2 of my siblings to Arkansas on Saturday.

I know I take your warm thoughts and prayers with me, and I thank you.

Darla

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You are in my thoughts.

 

[glorib]

Thanks everyone for all the compliments! But you've all got to stop mentioning how big the kids are getting! I'm trying to ignore it!

So cute!! And the kids have gotten so big.

I love the top you used for Ella. Would you mind sharing the pattern? Looks good for the hot Texas summer that will be here soon.

I just used CarlaC's simply sweet halter version - I elongated the bodice and the ties, then just added a loop in the middle of the back to tie the ties through. Hope that makes sense. If not, let me know and I'll try and take pics of what I'm talking about!
