Disboutiquers Part 27 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[cburnett27]

Thank you so much!! I really was thrilled with how all her stuff turned out, and its so rewarding when someone asks her where she got it, that now she responds "my mommy made it" with the proudest look

That is the PRETTIEST Rapunzel dress I have ever seen!!!! I love all the details The ribbons on the sleeves are perfect and I adore the flowers on the skirt!! FABULOUS, FABULOUS job!

It is the Simplicity pattern but after I cut my pieces from it I glanced at directions but mostly put it together my way with a few modifications. I did an invisible zipper in the back so my back was constructed a little differently. Also I left off the long sleeve portion that would have been done in chiffon, I didnt think DD would like that part all that much so I skipped it, in place of gathering the bottom of the sleeve into the long sleeve part, I just stitched 1/4" elastic to the bottom of the sleeve to make it pull in and puff up. I also didnt do eyelets for the corset I just added little ribbon loops instead. I can take up close pics for you if you need help with any of it

DD happened to be standing right behind me when I saw your post....you have done a wonderful job on everything but now DD has requested a Rupunzel dress "just like that one mommy".

IDK where to begin. Did you use a pattern for the bodice..I love the sleeves how did you do that..is there a tutorial for this yet.....to goggle I go....

Thanks for the inspiration! Hope you don't mind if a CASE DD dress after yours....... really its that good....

Great job!! I really like that green Toy Story fabric, where did you find that on?

I missed grabbing the adorable Belle skirt and the beautiful Rapunzel dresses that were posted. Excellent job on those!

Here is what I made last week for my little nephews:

Here is a closer picture so that you can see the Mickey fabric better:

This was the Simplicity pattern that I used. The shirts turned out ok but I wasn't really crazy about the pattern. Now that the printer is fixed, I can go back to CarlaC's bowling shirt pattern. I also think that the pattern ran a little small. I cut it out using the size 8 but when I compared it to a boy's t-shirt it looks more like a size 6/7. I am not sure that a size 6/7 will work for one of my nephews.

SO jealous!! I want that one like you can't imagine, lol DH doesnt quite see the reasoning behind such a big purchase, he thought my 330 was too much, hehe!

I have the 830. That is so wonderful that they are letting you borrow the 635 while you wait for yours! I hope you have tons of fun at the class. It is so worth going especially if they let you go every time they offer the class. I found I understood more this time than the first time. I can't wait for them to offer a beginners sewing class there are things I want to learn that I have had to search youtube for.

Have fun! I have been!

These are gorgeous!!!

Pirate Dress..

GORGEOUS Princess dress..

Yep, good eye

I *think* that's the Simplicity pattern. I've got that one.

I think that would be perfect!

I posted this over on the Big Give Forum but thought I would post it here too...

Quick backstory....

I live in the Cayman Islands so no running to Joann's and online ordering is limited with international shipping. Not to mention very expensive with Customs duty at 27.5%.

ANY who, I am making Crayon Roll up's for Keira and Cooper and I am so excited to be getting involved with the Big Gives.

I am planning a sewing shopping trip at the end of Febuary so for the next Give I will be more than ready...(chanting as I walk the isles)think boys and girls think boys and girls....

I have made Keira's roll up - I had some left over Tink Fabric from last years Disney trip (DD customs) so that was easy and it's already done.

Now for Cooper here is my deliema,

I need some ideas or opinions . I don't have any boy fabrics I bought some solid red and solid black fabric, I have some yellow Ric Rac (I could sandwhich between the front and back)...I was going to use yellow thread to break up the color a little bit in the top stitching and the pocket lines.

Thinking I could applique a Mickey Head on the outside....trying to turn some non disney stuff into kind of Disney...

Any thoughts on what I could do? I am open to anything.

I really want them to be special, these babies so deserve it

Pirate Dress..

I loved these 2 dresses...I hope to do a Vida with Huge appliques like that for our Disney Trip this year.

What pattern is the Green Dress from?

I think that the idea with the black and red fabric with yellow rick rack sounds great. It will be adorable and it would be extra cute if you were able to applique a Mickey head on it too.

I love the dress with the huge princess appliques! It is amazing!

I am pretty sure that I bought the green Toy Story fabric at Walmart but since it came from my stash I am not entirely sure.

 

[erikawolf2004]

ISO the Ariel wedding dress patter. Does any one have the Simplicity 9902 pattern that is willing to part with it?

Thanks, Erika

 

[PurpleEars]

I am looking to make (errr rather ask my mom to make since i am hopeless at sewing) a Mary Poppins dress for a 5 year old and was wondering if anyone might know of a pattern or two I can look for or find online?
TIA
Erin

You may get some ideas from the group photobucket account. Some people "tag" the pattern with the pictures.

Enabler Alert!!!!​

Fabric dot com has its Disney Fabric on sale for 15% off with free shipping on orders of over $35. Unfortunately I bought the Embird with my 'spare' money so I can't partake! RATS!!



Nini

Would it make you feel better if I tell you that shipping to Canada costs an arm and a leg so I can't partake either?

The applique idea sounds lovely. I have turned quite a few pieces of non-Disney fabric into Disney-themed by doing appliques.

I got so far behind but have had so much fun catching up. There has been so much creative and beautiful work! I fell behind when we went down to the World right after Thanksgiving. After the trip I was completely in gift sewing mode and just lost track of time. I want to share a some pictures from the trip so I hope you won't mind if I overload you with pics tonight.

First, I have to explain that our trip didn't start out quite like we had hoped. We drove through the night on Thanksgiving and pulled in to FW early in the morning on Friday. We hoped to set up, take a nap and spend some time in downtown disney before meeting up with my sister's family who were ending their vacation the day we started ours. Instead we had just started to set up with our DD then 18 months fell, bit her lip, and next thing I know we had an ambulance at our campsite. After several hours at the Celebration hospital and several stiches we were back in business but the day definitely did not go as planned and the pictures are a little more.... colorful than I had hoped.
The photopass photographer got this shot the next day and I think she looks a little like a mini starlet after a rough night on the town.

This picture shows her pants I made for that day (the Clemson/Carolina game). They were crooked but not nearly as crooked as they looked in the picture. She had an iron on clemson minnie shirt that one of the helpful artists on another Disboard provided

Here she is meeting Pooh at the Animal Kingdom.

My favorite was her Snow White dress. I posted it before but I had to share again. At the sea

and with Snow White.

DD was nervous but Snow White was so patient and sweet with her.

I didn't get a great picture of this set. I also made a peasant shirt that matches the ruffle on the jeans but it was cold and she kept her jacket on that day!

The Car's stripwork jumper got the most attention. I think it is because there you don't find girl's clothes with Lightening McQueen very often.

For our CP breakfast

DD looks so happy on our final night

You all have inspired me. My PE 770 (a belated Christmas present to myself) is on order and will be here later this week. Any beginner's advice is greatly appreciated. I know I will be back with questions soon!

What pattern is the Green Dress from?

That is the Grace dress. It is a pattern done by Lisazoe, who show up here on and off. You can find it at YCMT. And if I am not mistaken, the above dress was made by Lisa herself.

O.k. I know it's not Disney and it's not children's clothing but it's my first ever bag so I'm going to share!

It's a Zoe Messenger Bag designed by: Schlosser Designs except that I could not for the life of me get the strips to work out right so I did a solid front flap.

Thanks for looking!!!

This turned out great - I love the fabrics you chose!

For those of your following my PTR... I am going to post pictures of my UP! bag shortly... I know a lot of people have been anxiously waiting to see pictures of it, as I've been talking about it for weeks, and working on it for what seems like that long too. ​

We are currently waiting for today's update on our neighbor. Yesterday was the day they finally started to bring her out of the medically induced coma. I hope that she will wake up and be well. We are praying for that to be true!

Here is what I made last week for my little nephews:

This was the Simplicity pattern that I used. The shirts turned out ok but I wasn't really crazy about the pattern. Now that the printer is fixed, I can go back to CarlaC's bowling shirt pattern. I also think that the pattern ran a little small. I cut it out using the size 8 but when I compared it to a boy's t-shirt it looks more like a size 6/7. I am not sure that a size 6/7 will work for one of my nephews.

Hope all is well with your neighbor.
The shirts are so cool. They came out great.

New twirl skirt for my baby cousin's birthday!

Love how the name is added...cool!!

Ok, now that we are back, I have a few more pics to share. Jessie and our AK outfit were posted awhile back. Here are the other 2 I was finishing. These were both from her birthday -

this was after BBB, typically my 4yo doesn't wear makeup

Love the Rapunzel. That came out fantastic.

Pirate Dress..

GORGEOUS Princess dress..

WOW WOW WOW amazing. Love looking at her FB page and seeing all her fabulous outfits.

So I have to send back my new toy. DH got me the Singer quartet for Christmas and I have tried to make it work but I just cant get it. I have only tried to do the embroidery on it so far and it has managed to eat every piece of fabric and make a big mess of knots under it.
From what I have read some came with the bobbin area a little wonky--either broken or a burr type thing in it where it only goes around part way then pulls some thread goes again part way pulls more thread and so on. The computer kept saying top thread was broken but it wasnt. So I am sending this one back and hoping the next one is a good one and I can I was hoping to have it to make the Valentine outfit I wanted for my DD but I dont think I will have it back in time.
Told the DH if this one dont work, I am sending it back and hoping they will have the brother listed again. I just really wanted to jump the gun and get the bix 6x10 hoop
So I will be living thru all you fabulous ladies for some more time and drooling over the creations

I'm seeing some awesome stuff in here! I don't have time to quote everything, but great work!

I have a question for you creative geniuses. When you're planning out your fabulous creations for your Disney trips - how do you keep track of your ideas? I've got 8 bridesmaids' dresses to make for the trip but then I need to start working on DD's stuff, but I'm having a hard time gathering my thoughts. Any great tips?
