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

...by HeatherSue's designs. I'm still a newbie at machine embroidery, but I know we've got the best digitizer out there, right here! Every one of her designs has stitched out flawless for me, and tonight I appreciate her even more! I've been struggling with something I bought off Etsy, from the designer who made the lollypop covers I gave for Valentines, which was great. This one not so much. It's like there's a step missing, it doesn't mark fabric placement, I have to guess where to put it and then it stitches down with only one stop to cut before going onto the satin outline...even before the rest of the fabrics have been placed. It's weird and different and I don't like it. My wish is for Heather to make every image known into a beautiful embroidery design. In her spare time of course.

Ok, rant over. Thanks for listening, DH thinks I'm nuts, he went to bed an hour ago while I fussed over this stupid butterfly. Pics tomorrow, hopefully!

I am so proud of myself...I made a crayon roll up and put some embroidery on it! I actually made 5 and put the initial of the recipient on it of three of them. I don't know why these seemed so hard to me. I only spent a little over an hour doing them, but the satisfaction factor was out of this world!

Sorry, no pictures, because they immediately went into "someone's" Easter Basket.

Now, what can I tackel today? Oh yeah, I know...that thing called grocery shopping...YUCK!

Just wanted to pop in to tell everyone I had my stitches removed today and got my lab results....IT WAS BENIGN!!!!!! Thank you all for your prayers and for putting up with me these last few weeks. You are the best group of friends a person could ask for!!!! Now I am so ready to get busy sewing I can't stand it. My head has just not been in it to really do anything.

Now, off to school to go to 3 Easter...er...Spring parties!

I'm so happy you got good news!

Last night I was sewing and broke TWO needles, one on each end of the zipper. (Good thing zippers don't have three ends! ) I was rummaging downstairs for new needles and came across the three thingys pictured below. They were with some of my sister's stuff and my guess is they were from her serger, which I don't have. (As I tell people, when she died, my brother got her BMW, and I got the embroidery machine.)

I'm thinking the disks on the right are cutting blades and the other two things maybe are feed plates??? I don't know why there are extras. Are they of any use to anyone? Far be it from me to throw something out, even if it's useless.

If you know what they are and can use them, PM me and I will glady mail them to you FREE.

I'm glad to hear other people break needles. Sometimes I think it's just me.

Ladies,

I spoke with Shardai (Mya's Mom) a little while ago. I know many of us have been praying. Shardai really needs our prayers right now. She is going through a time no parent should have to go through. I so admire her strength. But she is going to need even more strength in the coming days. Please pray for that strength.

She has told me so many times how much she appreciates everything we have done, lets not let her down now.

Thank you,

I will keep both of them in my prayers. I can only imagine the pain.

Just wanted to stop by to say hi. I miss all the action on here. I have been busy helping my parents clean out their basement. We are about 1/3 done. It's going to be a long process. I fear that the last 1/3 will take the longest.
It's been a week of ups and downs, too. First off, the down, found out my FIL will undergo a surgery to place probes in his head for deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's next month. I have to tell DH tonight when he gets home from work. Not something I'm looking forward to. They have a strained relationship anyway, and things like this are never to easy deal with when you have a good relationship.
Now, the good. I am a little over 7 weeks pregnant! We went for an ultrasound yesterday and saw a heartbeat!!! This is HUGE for us. I had two miscarriages before I had our two kids. Both of those pregnancies ended at 6 weeks and we knew because there was no heartbeat. I have been going for blood work each week for the last 4 weeks and am taking a progesterone supplement because my body doesn't produce enough on it's own. I've been really tired, partly from the pregnancy and partly from helping my parents. When I get home at night, I am exhausted. I do just what has to be done and off to bed I go.
Tonight, I took some time and glanced through the last couple pages. Lots of prayers going out to Mya and her family. Her poor mother. My heart aches for them. May God be with them. Welcome to the new folks. Congrats on your good medical benighn (SP) news. Congrats to those expecting, too. Good luck keeping that little bun in the oven a few more weeks. All the posted pix look so great.
I can't wait until I have time and energy to sew again. I have a list of projects and a stack of fabric waiting for me.
Hope everyone has a great Easter weekend and travel safely if you are traveling. We may attempt pictures with our bunny this weekend. We've never taken her outside, and I can just imagine my DH running after her. Maybe we'll just do something in the house.

Congratulations! I would love to have another baby, but unfortunately, I know that I'm done.

For everyone who is singing, I know you will all be great. I love to hear people sing at church. I know they are nervous, but they always put a big smile on my face.

Woo-HOO so happy to hear that. I have been praying even tho I forgot to post to let ya know.

 

[teresajoy]

Up almost 2 lbs on the Wii but when I took my age test it said 37!

Prayers for Mya that the Lord be with her and the family.

Good job on the weight loss! (although, I still say I don't know where you could be losing it!)

Thanks!! I think since the WDW costume isn't much like the movie costume, people had no idea. We don't eat dinner with the movie, so we went with the WDW costume.



I like this one!! I've done hair for several years (as my side business), so I'm always looking at face shapes. Please don't take this the wrong way, but this one slims your face. I have a round face, and when I let my hair go curly, my face looks slimmer. Not sure if that's even a factor for you. Just a little stylist rambling.

So, now you have one vote for each style, and you're back where you started.



OK, so I registered for the Big Give group. Not that I can contribute anything nearly as amazing as anyone here, but I can do bows, little accessories, etc., and I wanted to see if there were any other ways I could contribute. Seeing the things you guys turn out and the great pics that were posted of the family earlier this week definitely have me in the giving mood. Anyway, this was a while ago (a week, maybe?), and I haven't received anything (checked the spam box, too). Can anyone shed a little light for me?

I also like the one with the hair pulled back, that was my second favorite!

I just went to the Big Give site and there were two people pending approval, so I approved them. Those were from yesterday and Monday, so it must not have been you. But, it looks like you should just have to log in now, since there are no pendings.

I ordered mine from Misslabel. They were pretty cheap, and I've been happy with them.

Thank you Thank You Thank You!!!!!! That is exactly what I was looking for. I was going crazy trying to sort through the stuff in a google search.

You are welcome!

What a rollercoaster you are going through!
Congratulations on the pregnancy!

Thank you there are a couple of the lollipopsandgiggles mine is lollipopsandgiggles.net I made everything on there but secretly think it all could be so much better. I keep trying new things and I am getting better. I taught myself to sew before there was you can make this or tutorials so I have come a long ways. I want to make something for a big give but I don't want to dissapoint so I will practice some more. Thank you so much

Yep, that was you then! Really, you have nothing to be afraid of with sending things to Wish families, your stuff is really cute!

She is pretty great, isn't she!

Been lurking mostly lately, and I had a big quote ready to go yesterday, and it just disappeared. Wendy, the dresses came out great. Moonk's Mom - that is great news, good to hear.

And this just caught my eye. First Congrats on the pregnancy, hope things go smoothly, and try to take it easy if you can.

And, my DH is going for Deep Brain Stimulation in the next couple of months. He lost an arm 10 years ago, and always has some level of pain. He has had 2 surgeries in his shoulder/chest area to remove the bundle of nerves that keeps trying to grow down the arm he doesn't have. It has been a few years since the last surgery, so the pain is getting so much worse. The docs think that the DBS will be a more permanent solution. Also, (and the point to this lengthy paragraph) they say that it is proven very successful, and actually quite a routine surgery for many brain docs. In other words, maybe not to be worried about as much as you think.

Love the hand on the hip pose. And your stuff is great.

 

[ncmomof2]

YES! I just quoted myself! I forgot to mention - there IS one thing I don't do - EXERCISE!

Thanks for the laugh!!

Ok so lets see if i can post a picture of a set i maid for my daughter for Disney on Ice

Very cute! I didn't even think about making my daughter something for Disney on Ice tomorrow night!. She still fits in last year's trip clothes so I guess she will wear that.

 

[aboveH20]

Thanks to all who clued me into what my thingys are. I just got a PM and replied to someone who can use them, so they're "off the market."

(I know it's frustrating to be skimming pages and wondering what a post is referring to, so for those who weren't around a few pages back, I found some feed plates in my basement for a serger I don't have.)

 

[lollipopsandgiggles]

Oh, she is just precious....oh yeah...and the outfit...very cute too!!

Thank you ladies. I will have to go and check out heathers site. Thanks a bunch

 

[lynnanddbyz]

I have used them on many of my dd's clothes and haven't had a problem with it fading. Some of her pj pants are worn alot and are still more than readable.

Thank you I will try this first. I have some of this paper but thought the writing would fade off after it was washed a few times. I'll let everyone know how they work.

 

[NiniMorris]

I just got back from the WalMart closest to my house. NO FABRIC!
(well, a couple of bolts of some sort of polyester double knit stuff! ) You know the drill, what they have is half off, but nothing is left. Fabric lady said they just put it on sale yesterday!!!

She said 99% was bought by employees! I guess there will be a flood on that auction site now. I think that should not be allowed....but then again that is just me!

They also had 0 shoes ...well, unless you count the ONE style of ladies dress shoes in only tiny sizes. There were no ladies sneakers, only a few styles of sandals. Kids shoes wasn't much better. One or two styles.

So what is Wally world gonna sell now? In the food section, they only carry a few brands, no real selection! This is a relatively new Wally World.


Well, at least the fabric lady did tell me the other local WM will be discontinuing their selection of fabric in the next few months! I guess I'll start stalking them...I wasn't planning on getting some of my fabric until closer to our date...



OK Rant over!

We are having some pretty nice weather though......

I feel for you! I was 5 months pregnant when my mom died. My dad had died a few years earlier and I ended up having to do a majority of cleaning out the house that they had lived in for over 40 years! With my 3 other kids in-tow no less. Try to get some rest and take care of yourself!

That is adorable! I would love to try painting on fabric...someday...

Thanks so much for the compliments on DS's PC outfit!! I was really proud of it (even though I had to do a couple...or several...on-site repairs). He loves it, and wore it to a couple Halloween parties, too. Yeah, no one but the Disney elite knew who he was.

Here's our 1900 YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEzz4EkkSb8

Okay, LOVED that video! So did my kids! We were laughing so hard about the rings. Your kids are cute. The real dance at the end was adorable.

New to posting here but have been a lurker. Love what all have you have done. Got some Carla's patterns last year . Finally did some this week on spring break. Then some how my DH broke my SE 270D machine. So he ordered me an Innovis 900D . Can't wait for it to be here ! Mary
