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

[Meshell2002]

The training pants are very cute. Where do you get the snap press and those pretty colored snaps?

OK - so tell me more about this snap press... where do I get one? And where do you get these awesome snaps you have here?? They look so nice!

D~

I used the KAM snaps press and snaps are ordered from them too....they have tons to choose from....I've also put snaps on wallets & bags, also if you look at my son in the Jedi robe you will see one at the neck snapping it in place...instead of a button They do have snap pliers which are cheaper than the press.....I invested in one when I was making diapers and was glad I did....a few snaps are ok with pliers but when you do about 15 on one diaper the press is way easier on your hands

 

[Meshell2002]

I hope everyone is doing well. I have been swamped with customs and have not had much time to post. Here are a few things I did recently . ..

WOW! That was a lot of pictures! Sorry!!

Beautiful! is the black and white dress from a pattern? and also the Star Wars skirt? Would you mind sharing what the name of the pattern was or did you frankenpattern something?

 

[revrob]

LOVE it!!!! Which pattern is that???

thanks so much! The pattern is called Jamie - it is a Sis Boom pattern

That's beautiful! Fabric, too.

Thanks so much! The fabric is also Sis Boom. It is from the So St. Croix line - it is called Genevieve.

So, I created an album of our trip to Europe - if you are interested in looking.

Here's a teaser photo from Efteling park - it was amazing!

D~

Just beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing them with us, you make this homebody want to travel to Amsterdam.

I was packing up the last bit of stuff in my sewing room today and came across this dress that I had cut out but had not gotten around to sewing. SO, rather than pack it as a UFO, I decided to stitch it up. I really love this pattern. I made this one as a maxi dress.

Nice! I just finished this dress in both the Marissa and the Jamie version. I really like the Maxi length!

 

[ivey_family]

These are SOO cute! Love the ruffle sleeve and appliques!

Hello! I'm completely new to disboutiquers and you have really inspired me! I just had my first girl after three boys and I'm really excited about sewing some stuff for her! We are going to WDW in Septembeer and I'd like to have her some cute princess and Minnie outfits. I've had a hard time finding anything in baby sizes. Does anyone have any baby girl outfit ideas? I guesstimate she'll be about size 6-9 months by then.
Thanks!

Welcome! I'm fairly new here, too, and also sewing for a baby girl after having two boys (instead of three) and going to WDW in September! Lots in common. I hope you find some great inspiration here!

Regards,
C.

I love everything that has been psted lately! I have been keeping an eye on everything but not posting much. I need to start sewing for our Sept. trip. I have a few ideas but hae not started working yet. I vow to start earlier this year!

Here are some dresses I made my girls a few weeks ago. They love the aprons!

Has anyone made a dress like this with a lining that has tulle on the bottom for some fluff? Do you think it would be too hot for Disney? Thanks!

Very cute dresses! I haven't done anything with the lining/tulle yet and am wondering about it being too hot as well.

My quilt saga continues.

My vision was to have the animal blocks with orange and blue sashings...kinda checkerboard like. My son's vision was to have them in a row. So he won. I am not 100% happy with the look, but since I get to redo the whole thing for the bottom bunk, I'll make that one the way I want, since you will see it more than the one on top!

But, then I didn't buy enough backing at Joann's, so I can't finish the quilt until pay day...so I guess he will use it as a bedspread for the first few days.

I am sitting her at my roll top desk, with a dinosaur of a monitor hooked up to my laptop so I can access the internet. (my studio desk top is not happy with me for hooking it to the internet and has gone on strike!) The monitor will not fit on my desk anywhere except beside me. What a strange way of getting on the computer!

Dorine, I lost my voice the day we left for the beach.It finally came back on our second day home. Now my allergies are getting the best of me. My kids really loved the quieter me...

So much pretty stuff on here...I really want to quote, but I am still scared to...(such a wimp!)

I am down to something like 116 days until we go to Disney...I have to get busy!


Nini

I HATE not having stuff to finish a project. When I get in the crafting mood, I want to craft!

We're down to 110 days and I don't even have all the outfits planned out, let alone started...lol. I seem to have a tradition of finishing up our outfits the night before we leave, so I guess this trip shouldn't be any different!

I went up to my DDs this week and helped her decorate her new apartment and start on the baby room. She is doing all ducks and it is turning out so cute. I am making the curtains and bedding so we did just the basics and decorated the walls. Can't wait to see the completed project. It is going to be really cute. Since her husband was deployed last week, she is really missing him, so it was fun and productive and got her mind off of him being gone for a bit.

That's really sweet of you. My DH deployed 2 weeks after we found out I was pregnant with our first together. Getting ready for Jason's arrival is what kept me sane. I hope the time goes quickly and uneventfully for them both.

Shoot! My computer keeps freezing up and I lost the multi-quote I had ready. I finished the baby bubble romper today. I did it in a size 3 months. I think it turned out very cute. I hope dd's teacher likes it.

Adorable! I so love bubble rompers, I wish I had a little one that could still wear them!

Okay, here is my first try at posting a photo. These are the money cuffs I made. Don't look to close at the stitching

I found the instructions at http://www.oneshetwoshe.com/2010/09/lunch-money-cuff-tutorial-she-christie.html

Hopefully all my copying and pasting has worked!

Those are awesome! I should make one of those for my teenager for Disney. He is always losing things out of his pockets or wearing shorts without pockets.

Love it!

OOoh!!! I love how this dress turned out! I really must try it, because everyone just raves how wonderful it is to make and how well it fits!

OMGoodness!!!! Fabulous pictures!!!!! Everything is just amazing! And you're right, LOVE her shoes and that dress! Oh!

And I SO want to find a pattern to make the saddlebags on that bike towards the end of the album ... I need saddlebags like that for my bike and all the ones I've seen are BORING Just think what fabulous saddlebags one could make!

I know, I just couldn't let go of the purple shoes either, and they fit her personality so perfectly.

I agree - I think we should develop a pattern for the bike bags. Everyone in my family purchased a set (different than the ones pictured) because you just can't find them here in the states. I didn't even think that I could make them. I bet we could! I do know that they are made out of vinyl - but so many great fabrics come in vinyl now, that shouldn't be a problem. They are a square shape, so we should be able to modify any sort of square bag pattern, and they measure about 14"x 14" and about 4-5" deep - just guessing here. And I loved the seat cover too! And the cute little basket cover... I think you're on to something awesome here!

haven;t posted here for a bit....way to many cute these to quote, but am really loving all the cute little baby outfits...I so miss dressing Megan up when she was little and I ruffle tushies

D, your photos of your trip are amazing! love all the bldgs and the storybook photos! the wedding looked like everyone had a wonderful time, the bride was beautiful!!

hope everyone had a wonderful long weekend!

It's great to see you Lisa, I've been wondering how you're doing.

I used the KAM snaps press and snaps are ordered from them too....they have tons to choose from....I've also put snaps on wallets & bags, also if you look at my son in the Jedi robe you will see one at the neck snapping it in place...instead of a button They do have snap pliers which are cheaper than the press.....I invested in one when I was making diapers and was glad I did....a few snaps are ok with pliers but when you do about 15 on one diaper the press is way easier on your hands

I will be saving this to my favorites right away! Thanks so much!

D I totally love your pictures. The girls looked great in their outfits and I heart those purple shoes.

I am on a computer today, and not the Ipad, so I can multiquote

Shoot! My computer keeps freezing up and I lost the multi-quote I had ready. I finished the baby bubble romper today. I did it in a size 3 months. I think it turned out very cute. I hope dd's teacher likes it.

For 3lilpirates this is one of CarlaC's patterns on Youcanmakethis. I found it fairly easy to sew. If you pick up some cute Disney fabrics, it would be perfect for your little girl. Joann's happens to have all their character fabric on sale for 40% off this week. Here are a couple of pictures:

Really sweet.

Love these. I made a bunch not too long ago also.

Cute! my DD is now too big for those bubbles, but I miss them. I LOVE snap tape for clothing....but if you need lots of snaps on something thicker than clothing....a press is the way to go! I didn't know about them until I started sewing diapers.....once I got a press I wanted to put snaps on everything! Here are some cloth training pants I made for DD a while back.....DS jedi boots had snaps holding them on in the back

Too cute..

So, I created an album of our trip to Europe - if you are interested in looking.

Aimeeg is probably busy with Wacky Wednesday today.

The Black and White is the Feliz, and the Star Wars is the Insa and she added ruffles to the side panels. Both are available from the Sewing Clothes Kids love book.

 

[snubie]

THERE WILL BE A NEW BIG GIVE COMING SOON!!!!! This one might be alot of fun - it is for a cruise on the Disney Dream!!!!

THANK you sooo much....I will save that to my favorites to buy when the budget allows

I have been working on the baby bedding for my DDs baby. Making progress. I will post pictures of it when it is all done, but in the meantime, I finished a few little things for her. Here are some of them.

Burp cloths (I flipped the corners so you could see the fabric on the back):

A newborn romper with CarlaC's romper pattern:

And the whole set (romper, bib, and burp cloth)

And a little onesie. I had to put this saying on something since her husband just got an award in boot camp for marksmanship

I am sure there are many more things to come but for now...that is all I have pictures of.

 

[aboveH20]

Yes, I can imagine myself back there... We hope to go back again one day - probably with out the kids.

Well, they were not married in a church - they were married at a city building by a Magestrate (sp?). It was a very beautiful and personal ceremony. It was also very intimate - only about 35 people were invited. After the ceremony, we went back to her parent's house to have cake (served first) then dinner... then they opened gifts in front of everyone. After that, then all of the other people that were invited started to trickle in. I liked how everything was very small and relaxed.

Appearantly, in Europe, two sets of invitiations are mailed out... one for the ceremony and dinner and another completely different invitation for the reception... depending which invitation you get, that's what you are permitted to do. I loved how they opened the gifts right there at the reception, it gave the givers the opportunity to see what the couple received, and it also just made it really personal.

D~

Interesting the variations from how we do it. There's something to be said for smaller more intimate ceremonies.

PS I think my son is in your neck of the woods. He's on a film shoot in MN and is really looking forward to seeing the Mall of America. I asked him if there were any regional foods he was looking to try (he's quite the foodie) but didn't know of any. Lately he's been doing more traveling than I have.

It looks very comfortable and summery. Nice job.

Ooooooohhhhhh. I think Ill go all out this time and instead of making something I'll offer to carry their luggage.

I all of them. It must be so much fun to sew for a grandchild -- and congrats to her husband for the marksmanship award.

Which film is he doing? He must be close because I am not far from the MOA. There's a lot of excellent food choices near the MOA - you'll have to let me know if he finds anything good.

I can't believe you bought those bike bags!!! I thought for sure you'd devise your own pattern and create your own. I immediately thought those would be fun to make when I saw them -- problem is dh bought my bike for me as a gift and it's an ugly acid yellow -- not so sure I can find a pretty fabric to coordinate!

THERE WILL BE A NEW BIG GIVE COMING SOON!!!!! This one might be alot of fun - it is for a cruise on the Disney Dream!!!!

Oh! Two girls that appear to like dresses!!!!! I can't wait!

thanks so much! The pattern is called Jamie - it is a Sis Boom pattern

Thanks so much! The fabric is also Sis Boom. It is from the So St. Croix line - it is called Genevieve.

I have got to try this dress!! Looks amazing love the Sis Boom fabric.

That makes me want to plan a trip to Europe! What an experience for your girls! Glad you had an awesome time!

Very cute! I was always scared of that pattern because of the snaps. Where do you find snap tape? I don't think I've ever seen it anywhere. But that may have been because I wasn't looking for it, lol.

I think these are very cool for teen boys!

Wow, that looks like a lot of work! Was it difficult to sew through that thickness?

I have that pattern but have yet to try it, looks great!

THERE WILL BE A NEW BIG GIVE COMING SOON!!!!! This one might be alot of fun - it is for a cruise on the Disney Dream!!!!

Yay!

That is all so cute! I love the last onesie! Congrats on a grandson! Will his father be home before he's born?

 

[cogero]

Excited about a new give

I was a little bit OCD this weekend. I organized the fabric for our August trip into ziplock bags with what I am making with each and the matching shirts if it was needed.

I think DH told me my new machine would be here today but I can't remember now LOL
