Disboutiquers Part 28 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[BabyRapunzel]

The blouse is designed to be that length - it looks distorted here because I took the picture from a low angle and she was sticking her tummy out!

If you have a technical question that doesn't get answered, I would strongly recommend Pattern Review - lots of sewing message board and lots of helpful people.

Yep - here's my review: http://sewing.patternreview.com/review/pattern/74397

I've had great luck with some of the other Daisy Kingdom patterns, but NOT this one!

Woo-hoo! So that makes 3 of us leaving on Saturday! It would be fun to say hello if you see clothing you recognize!

I stayed up really late tie-dyeing t-shirts. I'll have to post a pic later. I'm not really excited about how they turned out, but we'll wear them half a day...

I sewed up this skort I cut on Sunday (there are built in green knit shorts):

It's Kwik Sew 3341 - good pattern.

I also had DH (the Eagle Scout) help me finish off these drawstring bags - and check out the cute rope I got at Lowes - cheap and perfect for this!

I have 4 more of these bags in production - already cut and I am monogramming them for the kids as I type:

Love that skort! And your daughters skirt. You make so many cute things!

 

[BabyRapunzel]

Hello, all! I hope you don't mind I join your group . . . I was recently told I need more sewing friends, and was pointed in this direction!

I just got my embroidery machine today, so my pictures may not be that impressive . . . but it is a start! (hope this works!)

Nice start for day 1!

Not sure what I keep doing, trying to multi reply on phone app and its not working.

I thought I would join in as well. I got an embroidery machine and a sewing machine this week. The embroidery machine is winning. I have done 3 (4x4) designs, and one 5x7 design. Trying to figure how to post pics.

Does everyone post through photobucket or is there another way?

You guys are all inspiring and motivating!

I haven't figured out how to multi quote on my phone, either

I use photo bucket for my pics. There is a write up on posting pics on the first page of this thread. It has helped me a few times :good vibes

I am way, way, way, way WAY down in Southern Maryland. I would be really surprised if you were nearby! Thank you for your kind offer, though

You're right that we aren't anywhere near you. We live in Gaithersburg so you are definitely quite a distance from us. It sounds like your bag will be put to good use on your next trip if you don't get your hardware in time.

Love the skort and the bags turned out super! The rope you found at the hardware store is great. I'll bet it was a lot cheaper than buying it at Joanns. That was a good idea to go there. Post some pictures of your tie dye shirts so that we can see them. Maybe there is a way to fix them up a bit. I've done a lot of tie dyeing.

Nice job on your first embroideries and welcome to the group. Make sure that when you are embroidering that you have adequate stabilizer under your design and that you use the special bobbin thread for embroidery.

Welcome to the group. We can't wait to see pictures. I use photobucket to post my pictures on here and it is very easy.

Ok just playing with multiquote on the iPhone app. So you click on the person's name to highlight it yellow. Scroll through doing that to the posts you want then in upper right with the arrow click and you get the menu that says "multi-quote"! Woohoo I got it!

 

[Fruto76]

Popping in for a minute to say hi and see what everyone has been working on. Far too many wonderful things to quote! I love it all!!!

We leave saturday, and I'm scrambling. This is our 3rd trip since I started sewing, and I finally made myself a few things! 2 simple skirts:

I'm working on a bag, but the hardware (rectangle and slider set) haven't arrived yet so it's not finished. I'm worried they won't be here in time!

And 1 more outfit for my daughter:

I have a few things for my son and husband, but their pics are on the camera and the upload cable is in my Big Pile Of Things To Pack right now.

Very cute! Hope your hardware makes it to you in time!

Hello all!

We are back from the most wonderful week at Disney for Tori's wish trip. I got so many compliments on the kid's outfits and it really made me happy. Even Snow White said I did a good job. LOL.

I've been writing a really detailed summary on Tori's blog (www.torigaga.com) and eventually I want to get it over here in a trip report.

Here's a quick picture:

There was a lot more posted recently but just too much to quote..it all looks great!
DH is away on business this week so things are a bit crazy here and it is cutting into my sewing time. Hopefully will have something finished soon. only 44 more days till we leave!!

I have some patterns I need to check the reviews out on since I am beginning to branch out and since DD is getting bigger but is such an odd size for an almost 11 year old. She is a size 8/10 with the start of a curvy figure

Did you use a pattern for your bags they would make a cool present for my niece and nephews birhtday.

Chatty, chatty ladies!!!! I can't keep up! I have barely been sewing b/c our upstairs a/c was on the fritz and it was finally fixed yesterday so I started back up. I haven't been on here much b/c I haven't been sewing

MICHELLE -- thanks for the pics of the fabric but my pathetic budget does not allow me to buy any fabric right now. Normally I would order just to have it, but I can't justify any extra expenditures right now.

I did make Lisa a hospital gown and my camera battery died but Judy posted these pics on her ptr and gave me permission to post them over here so you can see the gown. There is a red band at the bottom that is under the covers in the pics.


Showing off the New Hospital Gown Andrea made her. It is Snow White and he Seven Dwarves and has her favorite DOPEY on it!
She loved it and got lots of compliments on it! Thank you Andrea!

Maddie also came to visit Lisa..she was a sweetheart and so prissy!

If you go to Judy's ptr there are other pics of other gowns people have done for Lisa -- she doesn't have them all posted, but has some.

I have a busy rest of the week so may be MIA for awhile again.

My apologies for not quoting -- everyone is doing great work. Geez Diane, I think you need to send the girls to camp more often -- you have been extremely productive!

 

[Disney52303]

She may not be doing the FE, It is her and her DH and DS.

I am making Pirate Night Shirts for them

Look forward to seeing them, please post a pic so I will recognize!!

Popping in for a minute to say hi and see what everyone has been working on. Far too many wonderful things to quote! I love it all!!!

We leave saturday, and I'm scrambling. This is our 3rd trip since I started sewing, and I finally made myself a few things! 2 simple skirts:

And 1 more outfit for my daughter:

These are great - I love the F/F/M skirt! I made myself a very simlar blue one that's ready to pack!


and check out my new ticker. Brian and I decided that after the summer we've had, we really need a vacation.

Awesome!!!

welcome back!

I need a couple opinions! I bought CarlaC's stripwork jumper pattern and wated to embroider princesses along the bottom. 16 panels and I now own all 11 Lynniepinnie cuties thanks to her 50c sale (I think there's 11, if there are 12 my ? is moot point). I am going to leave every 4th panel blank with a more patterened fabric for the non-appliqued panels... but I will be one applique short. What would look cute? I was thinking Cinderella's coach (but then I was thinking of using that on the bodice, a wand, Heather's new Princess wording logo, a cutie Minnie...

Did you get the fancy castle (might not be called that but it's Cinderella-esque castle) that might work. Also, I counted 12 but I counted tinker bell.

 

[goteamwood]

Here are a couple things I have been up to lately. I finally finished my Mickey bowling shirts I started a LONG time ago. (and a picnic quilt I started when it was still winter...) because I decided I had to finish the projects in progress before I started a bunch of new stuff...




I started these before I dreamed I would ever actually get an embroidery machine so they are patches I ordered online. Now I know I could do my own.

Next I added this guy to the Tigger bowling shirts I made, still considering maybe adding something to the front, but don't want to fall into the "because I can" trap and make it too gaudy. I think it is already a very busy shirt.





And this, well, this is just a small project for no good reason because I found this little mermaid fabric in the clearance/remnants for $3 total. Will probably send it to a friend's almost-3 year old daughter since it's not quite my almost-3 year old boys' style. But hey, $3.

I Looove that fairy skirt.

And your girl's outfit is very inspiring.


I got to JoAnne's yesterday and picked up some fabric and ribbon for the little girl outfit I get to do. Although, I suspect it's going to turn into a couple of outfits.

I'm pretty excited about this: DH and I don't have any kids and kid's clothes are always a quick, fun, cure pick-me-up sewing project.

Help I need help with my Brother PE 770

I have been playing with my machine and I am trying to get the thread right. The bobbin thread is white and the upper thread is blue. when I embroider the letters are mostly white with a little bit of blue (very little) I have adjusted the bobbin thread (with a screw driver) and the upper thread up and down (with the machine display)

I am embroidering a towel if that makes any difference. I am so frusturated

I had this problem the other day but not on towels. For me, the bobbin thread was not right. I kinda dropped it in. After looking up what may be wrong, I placed it carefully and held it while looping the thread through the maze, the problem stopped. Hope it works. Good luck.

 

[Jen7079]

BabyRapunzel - thanks so much. I had redone everything one and nope still didn't work. I just redid the bobbin and now it is blue on the front and blue on the back, but better than it was
