All beautiful but the Belle Christmas is my fav -- I love how you did Belle and I adore the skirt. I aslo like the versatility of the skirt in that you can pair it with a different top and have it non-Disney as well.

Well, I got caught up in making the kids shirts for our trip to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum tomorrow so today, when I went to make tim's jeans I found out the piece of jean material I had was too short!!! So, back to the store - lol!!! Hoping to get on doing them tonight!! haha

Here are the shirts for Elizabeth, Tim, Hanna, Emma and Caleb!

Awesome shirts!

Ok, machine is working and I finally decided to try to rip apart some jeans to decorate. I can't believe I was actually able to put them back together!!!

I almost want some myself!!

Love those! I have only done jeans once as I hated ripping them apart (and I just did the legs, not the pockets). It's so time consuming but yours look so very good that I may make another attempt at some.

and here is the DD6 going to school on Friday. They celebrate the 101st day of school, so they all dressed as dalmations.

LOL! She said Cruella De Ville showed up in their class looking for puppies so they all hid under their desks
Too cute! Love the pigtail holders!

I know I posted these on FB tonight - so I'm sorry to those of you that have to see them twice...

But, you see, DH has been working so hard - I just have to show you all the finished product.

Here's her bed - the bed opens under the mattress for storage:
CIMG8373a.jpg


All of her awesome storage... The goal was to work with a chimney that bumps out in her room - it just so happened that the rest of her wall was exactly the length of her bed - so we added shelves. One set faces away from her bed - and the other set faces her bed for all of her electronics.
CIMG8375a.jpg


The view as you are sitting on her bed... can you find the Hidden Mickey?
CIMG8376a.jpg


And the memory board I made her for Christmas:
CIMG8379a.jpg


Overall - both girls are thrilled with their rooms! :woohoo:

D~
Awesome job and love the colors! And I found the hidden Mickey :)

Whoa...I take a 48-hour break from the boards to celebrate DH's birthday and I fall 15 pages behind! I feel so lost! Note to self: never take a 48-hour hiatus. ;)

I LOVE all the stuff that has been posted (TMTQ!) DH and I were at Joann fabrics today and I was ogling one of the high-end embroidery machines...of course, he just didn't understand the importance of buying one just to do Disney shirts, etc.

Thank you so much to whomever posted the link to Carla's blog. I have been studying the Cinderella gown add-on to the SS and finally mustered up enough courage to attempt it. After a few mess-ups (and a few broken needles), here's the finished product:

th_IMG_4081.jpg


My DD saw it and immediately recognized it as 'Rella's gown. She ran to it and hugged it...so of course I had to let her try it on. It fits like a glove! She loves to prance around in it. It is the cutest thing EVER.

Here are my question for those who have done the Cinderella version of the SS:
Do you find that the peplum pieces make the skirt part hang strangely? I want to try to do a ruffled underskirt to give it a bit more substance but I'm afraid that the seam (which is already quite thick) will be too thick and my needle will break. Any tips?

My next task is to try the Aurora gown. I bought some magenta and white satin this afternoon. Can't wait to start.

Also, I took your advice and added the black ricrac to the skirt...what do you think? I also added a pink swiss dot bow to the Minnie head. Right now it's just taped on so I could get a better idea of how it would look once I actually perfect the boutique bow.

th_IMG_4077.jpg


th_IMG_4079.jpg


Lastly, I tried to make boutique ruffled socks to match but I just couldn't hack it. The arm on my machine is just too wide and the socks are just too tiny. Blah!
Very nice Rella dress -- sorry, can't help you about the peplum as I've never made one and likely never will - my dd just isn't into dresses like that.

I love the black rac rick and bow on the Minnie. It ties the whole outfit together so nicely.

This board is so awesome! I got inspired to drag out the sewing machine and try a couple of Simply Sweet dresses for my friends twins. I feel like a dunce! It took me several hours to get them cut out and I haven't even started sewing them! And the easy fit pants ...wow. I hope I catch on, I used to be pretty good at this kinda stuff!
Do the Easy Fits first -- they are so much faster and simpler than the Simply Sweet. You'll get the hang of it though.

If I can do it, anyone can! :lmao: My mother and grandmother tried from the time I was about 5 until I was 19 to try to teach me to sew, and I never could get the hang of it. Give me two daughters and the DISboutiquers for inspiration and all of a sudden I'm making them matching outfits for every day of our trips! I've mastered the Simply Sweet and the Easy Fits, and now I've moved on to miles and miles of patchwork twirls. And maybe I'll even get crazy and attempt a stripwork jumper if I can overcome my debilitating fear of buttonholes. :laughing:
I'm the same as you with the sewing -- hated it with mother teaching me and never did any better in high school home ec. But Disboutiquers know how to tech properly (step one --use YCMT patterns!).
I never bought the Stripwork jumper pattern -- I just make stripwork skirts to attach to the Simply Sweet bodice. Easy Peasy. I didn't even know the Stripwork has button holes -- though I do fine with them since I have a DS to make Bowling Shirts for.

You will figure it out I am teaching myself. I really was never a sewer and my grandma was a seamstress by trade.

:


Oh yes...it IS quite thick! I broke the needle on my serger on my grand daughters! I think the reason it hangs funny, or at least seems to hang funny is the gathers are not even on both the skirt and peplum. I am 99% sure it is operator error (at least on mine) but I can;t seem to make it work right! When everything is pinned it is perfect, but the sewing is never quite right. I've tried using my ruffler foot...and well, let's not talk about those results!

I'm sure someone can tell us what we are doing that is causing us to be less than 100% happy with the results...but after making 6 of them, you would think I would have it figured out...the last two have made me afraid to tackle any more ruffles...almost!

Sewing 6 layers of fabric together is a bit much for me...especially with three of them ruffled.

Oh..my husband loves to go to Joann's with me...that way he can make sure I don't spend either too much time or too much money there...so far he has been unsuccessful!

Here are some outfits that I had made for our December WDW trip...

Love, Love Love the icy blue fabric choices!!! Not the normal red and green. And, for the time we were there it would have been very appropriate. We froze the last 4 days!

I am so trying to figure out a Disney plan for us this year! I want to take advantage of the military discount (an thereby getting back before we magically transform into 4 Disney Adults overnight!) but the money situation is driving me crazy!

Thanks for all the help and suggestions in trying to send my friend back to Disney. Looks like that will be put on hold for a while. Mama has been told no more traveling until baby comes and little Friend is going back in the hospital this week for more surgeries. Mama said all three of her babies were so sick when they were born she could not see possibly traveling until they were at least a year old. She is, however working on a couple of leads...and I am ever on the lookout for some deals and I have my TA working to see what she can find as well.

I have been sewing, but photobucket is not my friend! Seems someone has hacked into my account and changed the password. (and yes, I thoroughly acknowledge that it might possibly have been my evil twin in a feverish haze!) so the only way I can post a picture is to post it on Facebook first.

I did make the Carla Reversible Romper for my GD3's Valentine's Day outfit. It turned out so cute! I've made two others but unfortunately I thought my grand daughter was still smaller...I made them both a size 2 when she is now in a 4. (and it is not like I didn't know...she is with me every day! And everything I made for the Disney trip was a size 3 or 4....)

Somewhere in all this, there was a point but I have lost it (in more ways than one!) Bring on the Week!

:welcome: to all the new folks that have joined lately. As others have said, you will become addicted.

Love those pink pjs with the birdy.

Wow, wow, wow. I love the castle dress and the t shirts for the big brothers are great. The Belle and christmas tink dresses are beautiful. The picture of your DD in the red Tink dress is wonderful, you can see the joy in her face.

Great t-shirts, they look so nice. I'm sure you got lots of questions as to where you got those, hope you brought your business card! How do you trim the jump threads so nicely on all those letters?

Ok, machine is working and I finally decided to try to rip apart some jeans to decorate. I can't believe I was actually able to put them back together!!!

These came out so nice. Glad your machine is working. I think sometimes the machine and the operator just need a break of each other.

What a cute little doggy. The ears are great.

These I made for the DS9months

Cute overalls. I can see why you dress him in blue although those eyes would stand out no matter what color he is wearing. What a heartbreaker.

Wow, I didn't get to post on your earlier pictures but just had to say that you two did an amazing job. The beds are geat and I love all that storage and organization. The painted walls are fabulous. You both did ALOT of work to make these rooms look so nice.

Your Cinderella dress came out so nice. I'm glad your DD loved it so much. I thought your t-shirt and denim skirt were really cute before but the black ricrac and little bow made it even better. Great job. Little socks do not sound like fun, maybe some fabric glue will do the trick.

Just home from the Disboutique meet. It was fun to put faces with some new names
The kids all had fun running around and playing together. And the adults got a chance to talk face to face.
Thanks for the update. Glad you all had a good time.

Like OP said, you can use snaps but if you have mastered the ruffles on the miles of the patchwork twirls then you can handle buttonholes. CarlaC has a button ebook on YCMT.com that you can download for free. Like all things CarlaC is is wonderful.

I love, love, LOVE these rooms. Great job!!! (I HATE painters tape though...we have a love/hate relationship....and I usually lose :upsidedow )



I was hoping to get back into my sewing...I finally have a little model to sew for (my friends 18 month old DD :yay:) but my 14yo daughter decided she wants to walk the 3 day walk with me next year...so she needs to raise the money.

We are making paper bead bracelets and necklaces to sell. I am tired of cutting strips of paper.... and I have glued my fingers together more times than I can count. :headache:
 
Miss a day, miss a lot. The bedrooms are awesome. I wish I could get inspired to finish my girls room. I painted and threw the bedspread in there. Everything else is on hold.

Ok, can someone tell me where to get the info about converting the SS to princess dress?

Too cute Wendy.


Those are great. Sometimes I feel that I would rather make clothes from scratch than take something apart and re assemble. You are braver than me.

Super Awesome. Love both rooms. I have done stripes a couple of times. My Mom is a painter extrordinaire, so there are quite a few rooms in my house with different paint jobs, but none quite as great as this.

Aurora (toward the bottom of the page):

I don't know if she has any others. My dd is not into princess dresses -- she likes the princesses, she'd just prefer them appliqued on something rather than a look alike dress.
 
Holey Moley. TMTQ!!! I still waver between enjoying looking without responding, to thinking there is too much amazing stuff here to let it go unquoted, to hating thinking I'll comment on some creation while missing someone else's equally splendiforous work.

So here's a shortened version. . .

Hooray. Your machine behaved. I think we got ours about the same time. I leave for Disney (solo) on Sunday and am thinking I have to make myself a least a t-shirt to justify having bought the machine.

I love the photo of your son's face peeking out. Makes me long for the good ol' days.

How precious. I can picture her hugging it. What a great reward for a job well done.
 
Whew, I managed to quote and comment on a few things, but I have not really been around the last week. If you are on FB with me, you may know that my DH went for brain surgery last week to help alleviate some of the pain associated with his amputation. Everything went well, and he is OK now, but it was a long week. The city that his surgery was in is an 8 hr drive away, and I went round trip 2x in the past week. Would have only done it once, cause he was supposed to fly home yesterday, but then we found out he was not allowed to fly until Feb. 4th, but he could be discharged from hospital on Jan. 29th. So, I drove back down to pick him up.

There was a bunch of great stuff posted while I was away, and I did manage to check in a bit last week as DH had high speed at the hospital, but I did not take the time to post.

I don't do FB at all, so I had no clue what has been going on with your dh. It sounds like he has been through a lot recently. My thoughts and prayers are with him and your family. I am pleased to hear you say that everything went well with the surgery. Hope he has a nice recovery at home and I'm sure you're glad those drives are over now!:hug:

Great job on the shirts! Hope you guys have a great time at the Smithsonian. One of my New Year's resolutions was to get to the museums more often. Kids love it, we are only 45 minutes from DC and we could have lunch with DH. Crazy I'm not there once a week!


Really cute!

Will you stop already... you are making me want to redo my kid's rooms. Too bad no one in this house has any talent for that kind of amazing work!!


The Rella dress looks great and I love the skirt with the rickrack.


Just home from the Disboutique meet. It was fun to put faces with some new names.:thumbsup2

The kids all had fun running around and playing together. And the adults got a chance to talk face to face.

Welcome back! Can't wait to see some photos.

This board is so awesome! I got inspired to drag out the sewing machine and try a couple of Simply Sweet dresses for my friends twins. I feel like a dunce! It took me several hours to get them cut out and I haven't even started sewing them! And the easy fit pants ...wow.

Wow, I had no idea. Glad he is doing better. I am sure you must be emotionally and physically exhausted. Hope you are able to take a few minutes for yourself.

Tricia,
I had no idea! I thought we were on facebook together but didn't know about this. I pray for your DH continued health and that you get rest.:hug:
 
I have been a lurker for a long time. I used to post stuff a few years ago, but got discouraged by some of the talk going on, and I left. I have been just browsing again for the past year or so. I LOVE everything you all sew and I envy you all. I hope to someday be half as good as you all are. ;)

So, I thought I would post a couple of my most recent projects. We are, hopefully, planning a Disney Cruise, so I am excited about all the cute outfits I can make.

So, this isn't exactly an outfit, but it is Disney related. I made this one much bigger than the pattern, for extra growing room.

Ok, machine is working and I finally decided to try to rip apart some jeans to decorate. I can't believe I was actually able to put them back together!!!

LOL! She said Cruella De Ville showed up in their class looking for puppies so they all hid under their desks :-)

SUPER CUTE!! That reminds me, I gotta get my son's 100th day shirt done today!

Cute little boy!! Those eyes! :lovestruc

I have been a lurker for a long time. I used to post stuff a few years ago, but got discouraged by some of the talk going on, and I left. I have been just browsing again for the past year or so. I LOVE everything you all sew and I envy you all. I hope to someday be half as good as you all are. ;)

She looks so cozy in her sleeping bag! The corset is very cool too!
 
Thanks for the compliments everyone!! However...I cannot take credit for any of the outfits. I had them made by 2 wonderfully talented women who have been making customs for my kids for a long time!!! I only wish that I had the talent and patience to make such beautiful clothes!!

I have more pictures that I plan to post later!!
