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

[pumpkinpatchquilter]

I am so excited to share this outfit...

I just finished it this evening! It's my own sorta makeshift pattern...though the pirate outfits on Disboard totally inspired me!!! I had planned to applique a Pirate Mickey on it but my daughter says there are no Mickey's in the Pirates of the Carribean! LOL* She loves it...I just took some fabric from my quilting stash to make her scarf on her head...but I think I'm going to look for a skull and crossbone scarf at Walmart...and she wants an eyepatch! LOL*** So I guess I better get on that.

So excited, just wanted to share!

I love it! And she has the perfect pirate expression! I got foam eye patches at target in the party favors. They were 4/$1.

 

[DiznyDi]

pumpkinpatchquilter - great job on the pirate dress for your little one! She looks like she really likes it too.
I'm also in NE Ohio - near Canton. How about you?

 

[Fruto76]

Thank you! I would probably need to add a zipper too -- my hips are huge compared to my waist -- I have a very hour glass figure (only picture a slightly flabby hour glass ). I just really like the sarong style.

Congrats! She is gorgeous

I pushed for 4.5 hours with my first. My second popped out after three pushes.

Dear Lord! 4.5 hours of pushing!!! I cannot imagine!

FYI - for those of you that like to follow along in my PTRs/TRs...

I've started a new PTR - and you all are welcome to join in.

~~~~~ Sew what... We've gotta find a way back! ~~~~~



This is awesome Lori!!! Now... do they make button holers for your Molly??? Because let me tell you - the button holer I have for Patience does some AMAZING button holes! Definately worth the investment!

D~

Congrats on another trip in the works! I can't wait to see what you come up with in order to get you there this time! Are you going to be trying a new resort???

My latest project I whipped up, matching skirts! I think these will be our semi formal outfits on the Magic next week! My flip flops shouldn't have made it into the picture lol.

 

[TinkNH]

I have to show off my beautiful new granddaughter, Madison Nicole! She was born early this morning at 3:41 a.m. My poor daughter pushed for three hours before they decided they had to do a c-section. But baby is here and healthy and that's all that counts!

aww what a cutie!! congrats!!

Finally got photobucket to work I think, just can't upload on my phone. I have done 3 appliques, this is the first 5x7 size I've finished.

well done!!!

Hahaha - thanks! I know it I just love her little face...the Husband and I brought home both of my oldest daughters those pirate hooks from a trip we took to Baltimore...they are perfect! Thanks for the tip on the eye patches, I was going to make one but if they are that inexpensive I'll pick them up at Walmart! My middle daughter will want one too...

This is fabulous! and your dd makes it even better with her pirate looks!

Hehehe thank you! I'm so thrilled with it...and I'm so happy she loves it!

LOVE THIS!!!!!

Thank you!! The skirts are ADORABLE too!!!

that is adorable!!! She looks so pleased with it too!!!

Thank you! Yes she had fun jingling around the front yard playing pirate and making her older sister walk the plank...LOL**

You not only taught me to sew, but how to use a computer and post pictures. My DH is shocked!!

I wanted a cute skirt, but with the little one I need the skorts. There was a cool sarong skirt pattern that I googled and printed out and this is what I came up with. I added a zipper (which I had my MIL put in - I was too scared). I need to figure out how to put the button on the front flap to hide the zipper top. I just haven't done it.

Then, I saw the Fab 5 skirts and LOVED them!!! I modified the above pattern for myself and changed the front to a skirt front. I modified the May Day skirt pattern for my DD and this is what I came up with:

So, then I thought I would try to applique. Forgive the big error on the small piece. It moved when I was ironing it down, but I am shocked that I was able to pull this off so well.

I did other stuff for my DD which is in different stages still, but still wanted more for my 2 DS. Here is their pirate shirt. I made the shorts as well - the older DS almost by accident. Then I made him the Star Wars shorts in the previous picture. The striped headbands are neck coolers with the beads in them to help keep them cool.

This is the current project- my DH requested a baseball Mikey head. I didn't want to figure out how to accurately sew the ball's stitching so I just used the patterned fabric and sewed a little more detail on the balls. I am doing 4 baseball shirts. I have one completed and 2 other ones all cut out and ready to iron on and sew.

and a close up:

My MIL helped me with this skorts for my DD as my very first project. I have a top to go with it but it is lost in all my new sewing goodies. I am sad that I will most likely have to return my mom's machine next Weds.

Thanks again for all the tips that I have been able to snatch from this group. You are wonderful. I grabbed 2 fabulous pairs of scissors today at Joanns at 50% off plus the coupon for an extra 20% off. Thanks for that tip - my DH on the other hand.

Have a good evening!

Everything looks great!

Here is the sarong shorts. I thought I had put it in the previous. Sorry, I am very new to this all. I tried to resize the pics, but it kept saying failure to resize. So, you are getting really big pics. Hope it is not picture overload. I am just pretty excited that I was able to figure this out. Now I just have to get this all done by september. POFQ here we come!

I love the sarong shorts, can I ask where you got that fabric, it's beautiful!

pumpkinpatchquilter - thanks for encouraging me to buy the featherweight! It's such a fun machine to sew with!

My first project....

It's not covering the featherweight, but works for one of my other machines.
Now off to find another project

I love that fabric!

Sooo... I haven't been on this thread in at least 100+ pages, but I just had to stop by!!

Cheryl... Dorrrine is stunningly gorgeous!!! And that dress from Michelle is TDF! Oh, I keep meaning to tell you... I officially have another doll named after me! She spells it with one "r" though...



Ahhh... Don't forget Marianne... You also purchase patterns in MT and hand deliver them to MN on your way back to NC. You're the best!



Stephanie! I love this!!!! It turned out perfect... Now is this a cover or a carrier?

I didn't quote - but I wholeheartedly agree with what everyone is saying about digitizing and sharing files... It's stealing - plain and simple.

D~

We miss you around here, you should stop by more often.

I have to show off my beautiful new granddaughter, Madison Nicole! She was born early this morning at 3:41 a.m. My poor daughter pushed for three hours before they decided they had to do a c-section. But baby is here and healthy and that's all that counts!

How exciting! She is a beautiful baby and I'm sorry your DD had to have a c-section I pray she has a speedy recovery!

I think you look great, flip flops and all!

QUESTION: I remember reading somewhere that DISboarders often carry the lime green Mickey head to let others know they are members. Is there anything that this group does to let each other know in the parks - other than the obvious of being the BEST dressed families in the parks!!

Well, Sunshine recognized Gracie and I by Gracie's dress in the ladies room outside of Soarin'...very cool! Gracie felt like a little celebrity I think - perked her mood up.

We are doing Blizzard Beach and then AK tomorrow. AoA is awesome, but our wifi hasn't been the best (or I'd share more pics now)

Congratulations! Soo cute! And beautiful name!

I literally just finished reading your last TR (and drooling over your Evil Queen bag) I'm going to attempt a crossbody bag and your bags are giving me inspiration. I'll head over to the new PTR and subscribe.

I don't know if anyone ever answered you, but from what I understand, the great thing about sergers, is that most of them trim the excess fabric from the finished seams as they go. I think. Feel free to correct me if I misunderstand the serger love.

I finished my first completed applique project yesterday. I did take some pictures, and if I can ever get into my phone, I'll post.

I'm actually pretty impressed with myself

Can't wait to see!

Hope this multi reply post works! I'll try to keep up.

Ugh, no pics, will try again next time.

Molly has discs that are used for all the different stitches. I have the button hole disc, but it's a 4 step process and I have to figure out the size. Hermione does completely automated button holes all in one go. They're good ones, so I think I'll be using Herms for them. She overcasts well too which means I won't have to keep inserting and removing that disc during a project. What I really need to find is a ruffler foot for Molly. The one that I had for her wasn't gripping the fabric to make the little pleats. Think I'll go and see if I can find one on eBay...

That's so cool that she recognized you. I am sure you are having a wonderful time! Glad you like AoA!

I'm making first trip shirts for my twins and not sure what I want to write. My first thought was "Cooper twins' first Disney trip!" or should I put their names and first Disney trip? Need suggestions. I also have cute Mickey and Minnie together appliqués to iron on. DD's shirt is neon pink and DS's is grey.

If I've read once I've read 1000 times grown-up twins hated being called "the twins" so maybe avoid that if they'll be in photos they might not like later on. (read Abigail progbin One and the same book if you haven't. Really made me think about raising twins myself.) We do refer to our twins as "the boys" but I figure I'd probably do that if they weren't twins. Hoping I'm not damaging them! Mickey and Minnie are perfect boy/girl twin shirts. Maybe check out DISigns board for 1st trip ideas.

I'd go with "my 1st trip" on each. We are taking our twin boys in October. I didn't make any 1st trip shirts but I made a ton of matching shirts do they'll be easier to keep track of in the parks. I know name shirts are popular but I'm weirded out by kids with their names on clothes. I guess I was too brainwashed to be paranoid as a kid after Adam Walsh was abducted.

So I'm sure that I wasn't helpful at all. I'm sure whatever you decide will be adorable.

Thanks! Ummm... I am not sure - most likely not. We loved POFQ so much, I don't think we would be happy anywhere else.

Awww... This is adorable... I tried to coordinate with my girls on our last trip - it didn't work out so well.

We miss you around here, you should stop by more often.

Awww... Thanks! It's so hard to keep up with everything over here. You are right - I do need to stop in once in a while.

I had the same problem with Patience's ruffler foot - I was able to bend the gripping prongs back into place. So, I would double check if you can do that - save yourself some $$.

You guys do the most fantastic work! I am always inspired. I have been working very hard getting my kiddos costumes done for our trip in September. I actually just bought an embroidery machine yesterday, but I've been buying appliques from other Mamas for these costumes.

Here are the costumes for our HS day. I bought the badge and the belt buckle from Thefeltfrog on Etsy. I used the Portrait Peasant pattern for the dress along with this http://www.crafterhoursblog.com/2010/08/belle-dress-tutorial.html tute for the skirt. I'm pleased with how it came out!!


Thanks for looking!
