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

I have to say something to and about you, the Disboutiquers...and I'm in tears as I type...

Yesterday on Facebook, I messaged 14 of my Disbou friends regarding a situation in my family - my mom was just diagnosed with lung cancer.
Almost immediately I received notes...as of today, I've received 12 responses filled with love, encouragement, promises for prayers, and virtual hugs.
At the same time, I sent an almost identical message to 20 of my everyday (local) friends - people I see often, people I've known for years. I've received responses from 2 of them.
Mind you, I didn't send out that message to illicit responses or sympathy. I did ask for prayers -- I just think it says a lot about this group of people.:love:

You are a loving, compassionate, and caring community. I love being a small part of this community..and I thank you.:hug:

Darla

I am so sorry about you mother. Hugs and prayers to you.
 
Ah pooie! I had my reply all typed out and when I tried to post it, this silly site decided to log me out! And, now I'm too tired to remember everything I wanted to say!

Someday I will be able to stay logged in for more than 10 minutes at a time.
 
Where can I find the pattern for this skirt? I think my 13yo will LOVE it!!!
I think youcanmakethis has the pattern! Glad you like it.

My GD2 went to the surgeon today for a 10 day check of the foot. Now, you have to know that she is a VERY active little girl. As soon as the pain went away, she was off and crawling. Yes, the cast is all the way to her hip, but she figured out a way to slide around on the floor to get where she wanted to go.

Then, a day or so ago, she figured out how to WALK with the cast. Enough of her hip is free that it didn't take her long to figure it out! She is now running and jumping with the cast!

Let's just say tht the surgeon isn't all that excited about that idea! In fact, we have been given strict orders to NOT let her walk, or crawl, or do anything except SIT!! This is not going to be fun. Twelve more weeks of this....I am going to REALLY need a vacation after this!


Nini

Well, I'm glad she is doing so well!!!!

When Heather was almost 2, she broke her leg. The doctor told our Mom that he wouldn't have to put a cast on it if he could keep her off it until it heeled!! LOL! Needless to say, My Mom told him to put on the cast!

By the time it was taken off, she had almost worn the bottom off it !

Unfortunately...if she keeps walking on it, it will not heal properly and she will need another surgery. Last night her cast looked like it has been on for 12 weeks already! (and it has only been 10 days!) I can't imagine how it is doing any good... it is so banged up and falling apart!

I'm considering getting some rope to tie her in the wheelchair (since she has learned how to not only climb out of it but to undo the belts!)

Of course, her reply is "its working now!" so I guess she figures why not walk....

One more variation - an apron front. Here are the 3 variations all together (the smallest one I decided to do with fewer ruffles).

I can't wait to make this for my DGD!


NEVER WILL I AGAIN TRY TO MAKE A PETTI!I will always be happy to buy from Teresa! It is SOOOOOO much easier!

NaeNae - so happy to hear surgery went well - Good Luck and happy thoughts for a wonderful recovery!

Can anyone point me in the direction of Teresa's pettis. Thanks.

We went to the Disney Dreams Come True exhibit at the New Orleans Museum of Art last week. It was so awesome!! I wish we would have been allowed to take pictures inside. I guess Disney has control issues.. just like Bernina! :lmao:
I just wanted a picture of Hannah next to the big storybook display they had. Oh well.. I hope she is old enough that she will remember it. They had original drawings and sketches from all the princess movies... so many neat things. It took us about an hour to pass through, so that gives you an idea of how big it was. At the very end there were drawings from Rapunzel!! :lovestruc
The Little Mermaid room was my favorite. I wish I could have had pictures to show you all. I think there is a book they are selling if anyone is really interested. I heard that New Orleans got this exhibit because of Princess and the Frog and also heard that it isn't going to be on display anywhere else. Is that really true?? Such a shame for no one else to get to see all of that stuff.
Got our copy of Princess and the frog already too! Yippee!

I really hope this travels and especially to Philly!


Ok, I just have to brag. I reached my first goal weight! I am working out and trying hard to tone up for Disney. After a winter of sitting around sewing, I need to work out. I reached my first goal and now am trying to loose the last 4.5 lbs by our trip.

I still eat terrible and crave chocolate but work out regularly and mix it up each day.

I can do this, I will tone up and reach my goal weight!:yay:

Congratulations!!! :banana::banana::banana:

i just got some new Buzz & Woody fabric at the only Walmart near me that still has fabric - it is really cute and the characters are suprisingly very clear & crisp in the fabric. I can post a pic after I get it out of the car.
I would love to see a picture. Is this a cotton fabric. So far I have only been able to find flannel.

That sounds like an impossible task but I am glad that she is feeling better!

I have another embroidery question? I have a new Brother PE 770 ans I purchased some Easter designs from our favorite digitizer. I downloaded it and then put it on a tumb drive. I plugged the thumb drive into my machine and .....nothing. So can anyone tell me what I am missing or doing wrong. Thanks for your help.

Make sure that when you put them in the thumb drive they are in the 'root' directory or the machine can't find them. In other words, each design has to be put on the thumb drive individually. so if you purchased 5 designs in 2 sizes, you would have to load 10 files on the thumb drive...not just the main folder. I hope that makes sense...

My coworker's DH was diagnosed with lung cancer a few months ago. They went to operate but realized they couldn't get it out once they cut him open. He did chemo & radiation and is doing GREAT now!

My prayers are with you. I have always felt the same way about this group.
 
Just an FYI for you. "plaid jumper" are BAD words to M.:scared1: (She had to wear one in K and HATED it.) She now wants to "chat" with you:upsidedow


I think that was one of the first conversations I had with M...how much she hated her uniforms LOL! Aisling is excited for the jumper. It's much better than the "boys clothes" that she has to wear now. And in fairness, elastic bottom sweatpants are for boys!
 

Please, please tell me where you got this fabric...and please don't say two years ago:goodvibes I know a little girl who is in :love: with alligators, so much we had her birthday at the alligator farm last year.

I just finished two outfits for the Big Give that are supposed to ship today. I am so last minute on this one. I hope I am still able to get an address before the post office closes.

Does any who has a brother embroidery machine ever have a problem with the bobbin getting stuck on the bobbin winder? Mine is currently in that condition and I am having to wind bobbins on my regular machine. I have no clue why it is stuck like this.

Very nice Big Give outfits!! They are going to love them.
