Disboutiquers Part 25 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[lovesdumbo]

So many wonderful things posted! Love the pillow, quilt, t-shirt dress and all the dresses!

Just found out my middle son, 28, is going to have some knee surgery next Thursday. He was involved in an automobile accident on Christmas night and really messed up his knee. (Totaled his truck, out of work for 8 weeks) Now he will be out of work for another 6 weeks with this. Hopefully they will figure out exactly what is causing the problem. He is 6 ft 7 in tall and his knee hit the dashboard. They thought he had broken or chipped a couple of bones, and/or tore his ACL. He has been in PT since the accident and it keeps getting worse. So, this scope should at least figure out what is going on.
Nini

Hope he gets some answers and relief soon!

The night before I left for Tampa I got stung by a sting ray. I was not doing the shuffle and all I can say is Wow, pain that is at the same level as child birth. My foot still is swollen but it will pass and venom leaves my system.

Ouch!

PRAYER REQUESTMy DS29 had a spot on his face that had changed so he went to the dermatologist last week to have it looked at. The doctor removed it and said it was only a 1-2% chance of it being cancerous. They called him today and said it's MELONOMA! He goes to see a doctor in the morning for them to remove more. Please pray that it's not too invasive and hasn't spread and they can get it all.

Prayers for your DS!

Here's the skirts I made my girls for Easter. My older DD(11) picked out the fabric and then wanted something "shimmery" on top. She wasn't exactly sure what she wanted but this is what we came up. My more tomboy DD(8) didn't want anything "shimmery" and went with a nice simple solid band.

So cute!

Lovely!

My to do list is getting smaller!

This is really cute also!

I haven't even figured out what I am making for our trip. I did make this for my daughter to wear for Easter.

So Sweet!

An apron from a Kit that my mom bought at Walmart. She thought they were cute so bought 2 for me to make for her.

The apron, dress and blanket came out very nice!

My niece is turning one next month and with HeatherSue's fabulous designs I was able to make a great dress for her. I really need to get better photos.

OMG...I feel like such a slacker!! Only made it on Page 9. Well, I had a great weekend with my girls and now I am back on track. Hope you all had a great Easter.

I had to skim through the last 12 or so pages of the last thread. Everything was just beautiful.

 

[erikawolf2004]

I made my DD her Easter dress out of the Simply Sweet pattern and the underdress from the Portrait Peasant...I love how they both came out and thankfully they are both alittle big, so she can wear them next spring also

It looks off center in the picture, but it is just the way she is holding it.

 

[Luv2DressEmUp]

Adorable!!! What pattern is that?[/QUOTE]

It's the Marissa from YCMT.com

 

[SallyfromDE]

Late as usual! But at least it's not page 10. I feel bad, we left some newbies back on the old thread. I don't know if it was me, but I didn't get the little icon to quote for them.

On the 770 or a # close to it embroidery machine do you have a little thing to push on the back of the embroidery foot? When I attach the foot it tells me to push the lever but there is no point. So is there a point to it? It only raises this top area which is pointless. I can attach it with or without doing it. I just want to make sure I am not missing something that will cause it to break if I don't do it.

Thanks!

Is the simply sweet a YCMT pattern? If not, where would I find it? I love the variations I am seeing here.

Finished up my daughters Rapunzel pillow. I love how it turned out. And I got to see it with the pillow in it! I did this one 16"x16" and it was much easier to manuver. I also recommend doing 1/2" seams at least, instead of 1/4".

The Rapunzel and words are mine and the motif on the back is Heather's. I LOVE the motif..it is so pretty!

My to do list is getting smaller!

That is so pretty!! I just love that pretty Rapunzel design and I have that Motif from Heather too, I need to still do something so I can use it!

I got some stuff finished up this weekend, but first a pic of my 13 yr old on Tropical day at school:

An apron from a Kit that my mom bought at Walmart. She thought they were cute so bought 2 for me to make for her.

A dress made out of an old Tshirt of my sons. He hates to get rid of his old clothes, but I think having me refashion them for someone else is helping him let go a little. (just made this up to try out, it really isn't for anyone.)

And finally, a baby quilt. I have been really loving stripes lately and saw a quilt made up like this a while ago, so when I saw this fabric (and the co-ordinating girl fabric to be seen at a later date) I knew I had to make this up. It's about 40" x 32", and the backing and binding are both flannel, so really snuggly.

Look, I used a solid (doesn't happen too often in my sewing room)

I even quilted it myself, and am so proud of it, cause it is the first time I have done something different than 'stitch in the ditch' or sending it to my aunt to be done on the long arm.

I love the tropical day attire, your son looks like a fun kid! The quilt looks amazing!! I'm forever done quilting quilts, I love sewing/piecing and then I LOVE driving them over to my dear friend that has a long arm!

Page 7? yikes.

I made my girl's matching Easter dresses with the newest SisBoom pattern.

My niece is turning one next month and with HeatherSue's fabulous designs I was able to make a great dress for her. I really need to get better photos.

The girls look fantastic in their matchy dresses!! I really love the look of that dress. On a 1-10, 10 being impossible, what would you say is the difficulty level?

Here's the skirts I made my girls for Easter. My older DD(11) picked out the fabric and then wanted something "shimmery" on top. She wasn't exactly sure what she wanted but this is what we came up. My more tomboy DD(8) didn't want anything "shimmery" and went with a nice simple solid band.

I love how they match but still have their own special flare. Pretty fabric!

SO CUTE!! Smart to make it a little big to get more use out of it too!!

Prayers your way for sure. How big is the spot? My dad had something similar on his nose, but it was pretty big and ended up grafting skin. The amazing thing is, even with a graft you can't even tell!! I was amazed! I hope DS doesn't have to get too much removed to have clear margins and that he'll heal up quick

I have decided it was not meant for me to do anything or try and post any pictures here!

I cannot get my photobucket account to work today. It lets me in and I can see half the pictures, but I can't upload to it. So I decided to upload the pictures to Facebook and then to here...not working this morning. My facebook account has been trying to upload two small pictures for the past hour. In the meantime, my account is frozen until they finish! ARGH!!

Anyway, I am totally at a loss without my embroidery machine. I did manage to make two crayon artfolios (pattern from YCMT) in the past few days. They were supposed to be part of the kids Easter, but I forgot to buy the crayons...and I am one short...so I am putting them back for Disney trip in September.

It has been so long since I posted an actual picture here, I thought I'd post pictures of them...but after all this time, I'm thinking it is not worth it! LOL


{Insert pretend picture of two crayon 'bags' (I really don't like the name of the pattern!). One is a green dot to match my DD10's beach bag and the other is a Mickey/Minnie print from WalMart in the pre-cut section. I've got one more to make in Princess fabric.}

I am totally picturing it in my mind...Oh my goodness its awesome Love the pic

My to do list is getting smaller!

Love it came out great. Love the smaller size so much better.

I dropped it off last Monday. They said 2 and a half to 3 weeks before they will get to it...so I'm guessing I have at least another 2 weeks to go!

I had to learn how to work on my quilter myself, since everywhere around here said they had a 6 week back log and I couldn't wait that long. Hubby said I need to learn how to fix the Brother's so I could keep mine working! We actually played around with the idea of buying one of those super duper professional type models...but after I saw the prices I changed my mind ...QUICKLY!

Today is the third week in a row my 'student' has cancelled on me, so I am at a loss totally today! Hopefully she will feel better tomorrow and I can at least get some teaching done. I need to really decide if I want to start offering beginner sewing lessons ...and get PAID for it! LOL

Just found out my middle son, 28, is going to have some knee surgery next Thursday. He was involved in an automobile accident on Christmas night and really messed up his knee. (Totaled his truck, out of work for 8 weeks) Now he will be out of work for another 6 weeks with this. Hopefully they will figure out exactly what is causing the problem. He is 6 ft 7 in tall and his knee hit the dashboard. They thought he had broken or chipped a couple of bones, and/or tore his ACL. He has been in PT since the accident and it keeps getting worse. So, this scope should at least figure out what is going on.


Sometimes being a mom isn't fun!



Now, if I can just convince the Princess that we need to go down and at least look at the studio! Don't think it is happening....the last three times I conned her into going down she was upset that I am not making her the Princess dress she wanted!
Nini

Hope all goes well with your son!! Hubby broke his foot in Dec and he is still walking funny. He refused the PT being a big strong man and all!! Don't understand them sometimes.

And wow love the Sesame Street. Wish I knew how to sew when we had passes there. My DD would've loved some personal clothing when we went.

Ok silly question: My DH finally is taking me out for a brunch for mommys day (only been asking for 5 years now). Would it look ok for us to have matching dresses? Im thinking of Sis Boom patterns for the both of us with matching fabric and all. Then making DH a tie out of the fabric

 

[MomtoAlexnWilliam]

A little about me: I'm a newbie sewer (as in I took the required classes in home economics in junior high and have done small projects here and there since. For example, I've sewed simple outfits for my kids and their dolls, created some halloween costumes, and do my own hemming. I've done everything by hand so far).

Welcome! Can't wait to see what you create!

Praying for a complete healing!

I have cut off the bodice and made a new one more then once for some friends. Just makes the dress shorter to be worn with jeans/pants. So I think the idea of a skirt is GREAT!!

I have done this too! I actually did if for DD's Disney on Ice dress last week. It will all work out great!

WEAR MATCHING DRESSES!!! Did I scream that loud enough?

I am the queen of matching/color coordinating....here is our family on Easter Sunday. I made DD's dress.

Then we went to my mom's for lunch and we all ended up matching!!! No plans to match but we did!
