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

After my shower yesterday, I went by the cemetary. Levi's stone has been set!!!! It was very bittersweet. I practically hugged it (I guess having something tangible got to me) and wailed. I'm surprised I didn't stop traffic.

Sorry about the pink blob reflecting on the granite. That is me....

I'm happy you were able to get his headstone. The poem you wrote is beautiful. I remember seeing Levi in pictures you took of outfits that you had hand sewn. He truly is an angel. God Bless you and yours.

Well.......... Kirsta was being semi sort of co-operative. I got her to try some things on to show you. But only on over her existing outfit with petti skirt, that she was playing in.

Anyone recognise this fabric? I knew what I wanted, but I spent over a year looking for something to co-ordinate with it. I wish I had more. I'd love to make my 4yo neice an outfit similar to this.

You've seen this one:

And we'll do a Pirate day:

How'd I get a duplicate????

 

[billwendy]

I have Joci's Dory dress most of the way done - have to decide on fasteners. It needs to be ironed better and the pics are not straight but there it is.

tHANK yOU kATHY FOR doRY it was a life saver!
took more sudafed - i have been stuffed and sneezing all night and it got worse as soon as I walked out the door of the hospital. Going to bed. Have to get up at 530pm- go back to work- bleeah!! But still doing the happy dance because it is the last shift before vaca!
Will finish Juliet's Squirt top tomorrow. try to nap and maybe make 3 cutie Ts. get the girls in bed and then iron dresses and pack! Yeah!

 

[HeatherSue]

I still have that fabric, too! You found the perfect fabric to go with it- not an easy feat! I am loving that every outfit you made has some unique fabric in it. Everything looks great!

Too funny that she would only model if she didn't actually have to change clothes! I tortured my kids this morning to try on some of their summer clothes from last year to see what still fit. They were not pleased.

Wow, this turned out great!! I think it looks really cute how you put Dory on a solid fabric inside a circle! Very clever! LOVE the "Just Keep Swimming" text! Too cute!!

I love it! Your daughter is beautiful!

I love it!!

That is beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. The toys on the front are my undoing. Bless your heart.

Here's my Audrey skirt I made from the test version. I love the way it turned out! Tessa wanted me to make a Spongebob skirt. First she wanted me to make the front yellow and put Spongebob's face on it. Then, I got to thinking of where his eyeballs would fall... So, I had to nix that idea and we went with "Spongebob-esque" flowers on the front instead. I still want to make her a Spongebob shirt to go with it to wear at Universal Hollywood.

Lisa gave me the go-ahead to post some pictures. But, the pattern isn't out just yet! This is a 5/6, lengthened to a 7/8.

The settings on my camera were a little screwy for some of these.

I love this pattern. I really like the flowers on the front.

I love the look on her face. I'm glad she endured the pictures, because the outfits are adorable.

Wow, Dory in a bubble! I love love love the ruffle on the bottom. Wow.


I'm so excited because I just booked a trip for Sept. We will be there from the 11th to the 18th. I convinced my dh to drive, I hope it goes smoothly. Flying just stresses me out anymore, between luggage fees and things you can't have on carryons and lining up and waiting, it just stresses me out.

Since we are driving, we are able to bring a friend of my oldest dd's with us, so I'm excited about that too!

I finally got reservations for Chef Mickey's. We've never eaten there and it has been more elusive to me than Cinderella's Royal Breakfast.

I need to really get sewing

 

[billwendy]

Hi Everyone,

here are some pillowcases I made for Tyler's Big Give!!

 

[babynala]

Wow, you guys have been busy creating some beautiful things. It took me 3 days to catch up on this thread since I have not been on here since before Easter. We have been very busy since before spring break. I have done some sewing so I will post those when I get a chance.

Congratulations to all the expecting moms. I imagine you will be busy making lots of pink outfits in the coming months. An early Happy Mother's day to all the moms (and grandmas) - no matter how your children came to be in your lives your kids know you are their mom and that is all that matters.

Thanks for sharing all the pictures of the kids when they were babies. It is fun to see them now and then.

You have been posting some great work and I love seeing the kids in your creations. I have been enjoying the pictures of the "Big Kids" in their Disneywear also. You are all so talented.

Now that I am caught up I guess I can get back to sewing but I think I will read Wendy's trip report first!

I know lots of you are heading to the parks soon so I hope you have a great time.

What a beautiful memorial to your son. Your poem brought me to tears.

Hi Everyone,

here are some pillowcases I made for Tyler's Big Give!!

Really nice! I'm sure they will love them.

I am still working on Tyler's big give, waiting for my 'new' machine to get back from the shop so I can do a BIG applique. Can't wait to get it back.

Finally completed an outfit for DGD for December trip.. for Chef Mickey's. Now let's just hope I get a reservation! And I see that the yellow fabric bled a little into the white when I hand washed it last night and I didn't notice it until after I dried it. Ugh, let's hope I can get the stain out, but if not I'm sure it will get stained anyway when she wears it. LOL!

Just say it's mustard! It looks more authentic to have a stain on an apron anyway!!

I came across a site called DenverFabrics.com They have tons of fabrics. I found a light Aqua knit that I've been looking for, the last 2 years. I just ordered, so I can't say yet how shipping goes.

Any know a good site for trims? DenverFabrics had trims, but not a gigantic selection.

I have never ordered online but I frequently shop at their main store which is about 5minutes from my house. They have a ton of fabric.



Love the headstone. It's beautiful.

Here are the few things that I have made recently:

Tink dress with Easy Fit pants for my 2 year old niece (thanks for the tip and directions to add the elastic under the arm holes)

A Diego baseball outfit for my 3 1/2 year old nephew

A hawaiian shirt that I made for my husband to wear to the Jimmy Buffet concert last week. I used a Simplicity pattern and have to say that I was more then a little frustrated. There is no way I could have done this pattern without having first done CarlaC's bowling shirt.

A close up the applique. This was the first thing that I have done that was more complicated then a Minnie Head but it wasn't too bad (of course I could not have done it without HeatherSue's tutorial and all the great inspiration from this board)

 

[Granna4679]

I finished my first Heather Sue outfit. My Tiana is a little off center, but not as off center as it looks. My dd doesn't mind.

I'm thrilled because my dd LOVES it.
I'm looking forward to catching up on this thread tonight. I just glanced and saw some really cute things. I hope I get the chance to comment on them.

Cute outfit and I love her face in this picture!

Oh my goodness. That is just beautiful! It made me cry! Absolutely wonderful poem, and the fact that you wrote it makes it even more special.

Gosh Tessa looks beautiful in these pictures....I like whatever setting your camera is on. The skirt is adorable and Jennifer's fabric is perfect for it.

Cute, cute, cute! And I can't even see the stain.

Thanks for the links for the labels.

OK, I am the proud new owner of a box of fabric scraps. Well, it just so happens it has a ton of animal print (furry!!) fabric already cut in strips that would lend themselves perfectly to a strip work skirt. My question...would it be too much to have all animal print panels? I think I'll pair it with a red t and put a red strip across the bottom (for DNiece at AK). Should I put a red panel between animal prints?

Also, I'm dying to use the film strip applique (seriously, Heather, can't get it out of my head!!). My mom has a friend who embroiders/appliques as her job (after an aneurism, she cannot hold a typical job, so she does craft shows). If she isn't busy, she would probably do it for me. What should I pay her for the work? I'm thinking three kids' shirts (and I really want one myself, too!!!). I know she won't ask for anything (or expect it), but I wouldn't feel right not offering something.
