Disboutiquers Part 24 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[vester]

Quick question - Where have y'all had luck finding the cow print fabric for Jessie outfits? Neither of my Joanns or the closest Hobby Lobby have had it when I've been in there, and DD2 really wants a Jessie dress!

I found it at Joanns last year.....those were all pics from our trip last year!

Maybe online at Joanns????

We jsut got back from our Mother Daughter Weekend and had a blast! I'm so glad to have gotten to spend some time with my DD alone. Thank you so much for all of your ideas! She felt so special with all of the attention she got from the characters, CMs and other guests. Here are some pics from our trip.

Alice - "It's almost as though I'm looking through a looking glass. You look just like me! What's you're name?"
Lauren - "Lauren"
Alice - "I would've thought it was Alice"

for Mary, I just sewed bows onto a confirmation dress and made a sash

Thank you again for sharing your creations! What an encouragement and inspiration!

Awesome - very very good job mama!

I'm too lazy to go back and see who wanted to see the front of the bowling shirt but here it is. This is the best pic I have of it.

Those are just great!

and even these:

Great job! I started sewing because of this board too. I hadn't touched a machine in over 20 years and now I'm addicted!

Now that my Big Give gifts have been received I can post them here.

A Simply Sweet Halter for January

A baby Bubble for Kaitlyn

And some other stuff I have been up to too.

Easter Table runner for a friend.

Easter table runner for my mom.

Simpsons wrist cuff for my DS9 (on my wrist for photo)

Wrist cuffs for some other family members.

I've never seen wrist cuffs before ~ I think my kids might like them but I'm in fear of what they might find to put in the zippered pocket! My dd filled her new messenger bag with rocks yesterday and then brought them in and dumped them out on the kitchen island just as I was startig to get dinner ready!
I saw January and sis with their Pooh outfits and they really seem to like them -- who wouldn't! They are adorable.

And great job on the table runners.

You are WAY too hard on yourself! Daisy looks AWESOME! Noone will be getting so close to Peanut that they will be looking at every stitch. When viewed from an appropriate distance Daisy is perfect! LOVE the jewlery too. Where do you get your Mickey Head beads? I'm sure they will all be well loved.

I made the Mickey head beads out of clay. I am not very good at working with clay, but they were pretty easy to do. I just hope the ears don't fall off! I really need to make some more -- I only made two or three to experiment.

So much to catch up on and I have missed yall so much! Had a great wish trip at GKTW, want to share a couple of pics ...more to come!

Cute girls! I particularly love the black and white combo.

Birthday party season has ramped up around here and we have 3 parties in 2 weeks. These girls all have AGDs. I love being frugal so I thought I would make a doll outfit as a gift for each girl. I tried my hand at a few outfits for DD8's dolls. Here are the results.

This one matches DD's Easter Dress

She loved them when she got home from school!! She immediately switched their outfits!

The only thing is now she wants me to put some kind of monogramming/embroidery on them!

Those look great. I only made outfit thus far for my dd's AG as her interest in it lasted for no more than a week

We jsut got back from our Mother Daughter Weekend and had a blast! I'm so glad to have gotten to spend some time with my DD alone. Thank you so much for all of your ideas!

Wow!!! Great outfits and it does look like your dd gots oodles of attention. Your Jasmine is soooo cute!

Quick question - Where have y'all had luck finding the cow print fabric for Jessie outfits? Neither of my Joanns or the closest Hobby Lobby have had it when I've been in there, and DD2 really wants a Jessie dress!

I've seen it at Joann's and Walmart (yes, we have two SuperWalmarts that still carry fabric, though my favorite one is still in the process of converting to a SuperWalmart and I fear their collection of fabric may downsize).

 

[DMGeurts]

TMTQ yesterday! You were some busy ladies!!! I loved everything!

I'm too lazy to go back and see who wanted to see the front of the bowling shirt but here it is. This is the best pic I have of it.

Thanks for the front of the shirt - it is adorable. I love that red Mickey fabric!

WOW love the pics. Did you change her outfit for each character?

Quick question - Where have y'all had luck finding the cow print fabric for Jessie outfits? Neither of my Joanns or the closest Hobby Lobby have had it when I've been in there, and DD2 really wants a Jessie dress!

I have never seen it at my Joanne's either but I had found some at a Walmart in North Conway,NH. They still carry fabric at that one (or at least they did I haven't been up there since Oct)

I'm too lazy to go back and see who wanted to see the front of the bowling shirt but here it is. This is the best pic I have of it.

It wasn't me that asked but I just wanted to comment that your children are so beautiful. Love that smile on your DS

 

[MWGreene]

I've been inspired! Yeah!! I hear there is a quilting store hear that might have better/more up to date fabric than fabricland! I have plans to make two twirly skirt outfits. One for AKL and one for DHS. For DHS I would love to embroider a sorcerer's hat. Do you think this will be tough to do? I need to find a good pic first. Any suggestions before I dive into google? I'm going to check in the photobucket site first! Yeah!

 

[labruto4]

WOW love the pics. Did you change her outfit for each character?

Thanks! I dressed her in a tank top and short shorts, had a bag of 4 outfits and then when we saw a character, we pulled out that dress, through it over her tank & shorts, and jumped in line. I made the Carla C's Simply Sweet so they would be light and sun-dress-like.

 

[NiniMorris]

Busy, busy day coming up! I have shirts and designs in for half of our shirts for upcoming Disney trip; I have an order for 50 shirts for a t ball league; one order for a dress; 3 or 4 embroidery only jobs; AND I bought the key fob findings and an in the hoop pattern for them!

Feast or Famine! I have had nothing to do for the past few weeks, and now...oh did I forget to mention the kids are out of school and DS has an appointment today with his therapist ...2 hours away!

There have been some really great things posted lately!

Hope that all those who had the wild weather yesterday was safe and wishing safety to all those in harms way today..Looks like Disney may be under the gun today!

[Diz-Mommy]

Did you look in the Disboutique Photobucket account? I think I remember seeing it there recently, or something similar, I remember the two color dress. Directions to acess the account are on page 1.

I thought I'd find it there too, but no luck so far. Any idea which folder you saw it in?

CUTE shirt and ever cute-er little boy!

You wore me out.

 

[VBAndrea]

I made this for Carrie (Hannah's Mom) for a Big Give and can now post since she has received it.

It's an Aivilo Tote made a little larger (wider) and with longer straps. The Minnie head is pinned on so Carrie can remove it and use it for an everyday bag when not in Dis.

Inside (I add extra pockets and at different heights):

And a burp cloth I made out of some flannel scraps hoping she'd find it useful for Hannah's trach secretions (and based on her post it sounds like she appreciated it):

I'm happy with the patchwork style I did the base fabric in -- I may have to make some more of these in the future. I am making totes for teacher's gifts but am not doing the patchwork fabric b/c I didn't even think of that when purchasing fabric for theirs.

 

[cogero]

I am working on a dress for DD and it calls for 1/4" elastic which I bought but couldn't find so thankfully I found it this morning and can finish the dress I did everything last night that could be done. I am in love with the fabric I used but am depressed I am at work and not playing.

Andrea I love that bag and cloth. Love the colors.

Good job. Isn't it great when they really like the stuff you make? Too cute about wanting to add to it, guess she has her own sense of style too.

for Mary, I just sewed bows onto a confirmation dress and made a sash

Everything looks wonderful. Great idea for the Mary Poppins dress.

I've never seen wrist cuffs before ~ I think my kids might like them but I'm in fear of what they might find to put in the zippered pocket!

And great job on the table runners.

Thanks, the wrist cuffs are from a tutorial here: http://alemonsqueezyhome.blogspot.com/2010/09/lunch-money-cuff-tutorial.html

My DS uses it when he has to take a little money to school, like for a bake sale or something. Rocks used to be a problem in my house too, but I think we have grown past that a bit. (whew)

Love it. I have made that bag many times, but never thought of the patchwork option either. May have to try that some day.

 

[weluvdizne]

Wow, all your dresses and shirts look great. Looks like all the girls had a great time! I love your Rosetta bag, and it's definately better than the one for sale.

We have mickeyware for eating outside too! Each year it kills me not to buy the new stuff at the disney store! I am pretty sure after 4 years of buying it that we have plenty!! Every size, every variety and every character! LOL! We do tend to eat outside most nights though as soon as the pollen disappears.

I also find it hard to not keep buying Disney dishes. I bet your table will look great!

so this is for anyone who could use a good laugh tonight!!! I was making some spidey jammie pants w/Carla C's easy fits (I have used this pattern several times) and apparently wasnt paying attention and sewed the legs together to make one BIG tube like leg instead of 2 legs!
and because I was being super cautious, I stitched it and finished the edges so good that I cant use my seam ripper and start over.

good grief charlie brown!

I have not tried the easy fits yet, but somehow, I feel I am capable of doing the same thing. I see TJ offered a great solution. Hope it worked out for you.

Thank you so much! It really was alot of fun to do the outfits and two other mom's helped cut out the fabric. They looked so cute and had such a great time doing the show!
Here you go:

They all look great. Nice job and how sweet of you to do that for the class.

Peanut and Monkey received their Big Give outfits. For Peanut I made a Portrait Peasant Daisy Dress (sadly her bill is messed up and I already had to undo it once because my bobbin thread was acting up so was afraid to undo it again and really mess up the fabric). For Monkey I made a coordinating Donald T-

Everything looks great. You are too hard on yourself. Very sweet of you to always do so much for the bg's.

My son was five on our last trip. I did a combo of easy-fit shorts, appliqued tees and bowling shirts for him to coordinate with his sister.

Thanks for sharing the pictures. They all look great. Love how they coordinated.

For my boys (4 and 3) I do easy fit pants and appliqued tees. They always match one another because otherwise they'll argue over who wears what I have yet to try the bowling shirt pattern. One of these days I'll give it a go ! We went to WDW in January and I did shirts with Lightning McQueen, Heffalump (Lumpy from Pooh), Stitch, Ice Cream Mickey, Phineas and Ferb, Star Wars Mickey and Prince Charming Mickey shirts. I used a lot of Disney Fabric to make them easy fit pants to go with their tops.


I finally finished my first Vida! Yay! That was the first time I'd put buttons and button holes on with my machine. WOW! was that easy or what!! I am already planning on making more!

Nice job. I agree, the buttonholes are easy, once you get over the fear of doing them.


AboveH20 Thank you for the book tute. You make it look so easy. I think your bear is cute.

DMG Thanks for the tute on the zipper for the Rosetta. That was something I wanted to add. Now my to-do list has grown, again!

 

[weluvdizne]

Now that my Big Give gifts have been received I can post them here.

A Simply Sweet Halter for January

A baby Bubble for Kaitlyn

And some other stuff I have been up to too.

Easter Table runner for a friend.

Wrist cuffs for some other family members.

Those Pooh outfits are so cute! I'm going to make a bubble romper for my little guy, without the puffy sleeves of course. Nice to see one done. The wrist cuffs look like a great idea. Those Easter runners give me inspiration, but I have too much on my to do list already.

Made this for dd ~ it's all cat fabric from Joann's Debbie Mumm collection that I bought BEFORE the big sale (it was 40% off, but had I only known I owuld have waited longer!). And sorry the photos are fuzzy -- I forgot to change the camera setting.

Dress (Frankenpatterned Simply Sweet assembly and sizing, but kind of made up the rest of it):

Cute dress and bag. Your daughter is a cutie, too. Love the fabric.

and even these:

Wow you were busy. Everything looks great and your DD is precious! Thanks for sharing. Love what you did with Snow White.

Just wanted to update....

FIL is out of the hospital completely and has been moved to a rehab facility. His place on the UNOS list has not been affected by the MRSA, so now we just wait. His wife is doing good, I think I already posted that they think it was her gall bladder. But then, I also just found out her mother has been in the hospital too and has now been moved to the same rehab center as my FIL. I feel so sorry for all the running around she has been doing. My FIL still insist on us not coming until our vacation in June unless he gets the transplant, then we will go up.

So, in other news, as some of you know me and DH have been trying for 3 years to take a trip just the two of us, he always was trying for Vegas. So, unless something happens, this is the year! We aren't going to Vegas...we are going to NYC!!!! I am so excited! This will be my first trip on a plane and my first trip to NYC. I have everything booked; hotel, 2 day bus tour, and today I am buying the plane tickets. We are going in July, so now, I think I will make the new Sis Boom sundress for me. I want something cool and comfortable to wear and that looks great!

so glad the prayers are helping. Glad they are doing better. Yeah for your NY trip. HAve fun.

So much to catch up on and I have missed yall so much! Had a great wish trip at GKTW, want to share a couple of pics ...more to come!

Love those outfits. Very nice!

Good luck getting everything done. I have a long to do list today, but dh is going to be gone all day and into the night. He's an election judge. So, I will have to watch all 3 kids while doing everything, too. I understand how you feel, but my list looks easier than yours. Glad you are doing so well with your business. I wish I was good enough to make things to sell to other people.

I made this for Carrie (Hannah's Mom) for a Big Give and can now post since she has received it.

Very nice. I like the way it turned out. Thank you for recommending the pattern to me. I made one last week, and love it. I will definately make more. I need to take pictures of everything I've made so far and post them. Thanks again. I will have to try the patchwork next time. Love that look.

I love the bag. Like someone else posted, I love red, white and back together. I'm working on my first tote. Not that I'm thinking about selling it, but as I make things I wonder how anyone makes money on etsy. Anything "homegrown" is sooooo time consuming. Okay, that's my editorial comment. My question is, how long did you make the straps?
