Disboutiquers Part 29 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[PurpleEars]

Since my bad news, I have been sad and not wanting to do anything other than making it through work. However, we are going to the circus to see Ringling Brothers Dragons tonight, and late Tuesday night I decided I wanted DD2 to have an outfit. So the fabric was bought yesterday, and made last night. There were 2 shirt casualties, learning to embroider on knit. And I ran out of time, so once again no ruffle for now and a quick hem. This is my first official outfit, as the princess one still needs a ruffle.

I am sorry to hear that you had been feeling sad. I hope things look up for you. The outfit looks great!

Picked up my serger today and found out that I had fabric waiting for me too ! I went to the Open house at his shop a couple of weeks ago and they had a contest where you had to guess how many inches were on the bolt and I guess 207 and it was actually 216. I got all 6 yards of fabric and don't have any clue what I'm going to make with it.

And when I got home, after grocery shopping, I realized that I don't have thread for my serger he didn't try to sell me some and I forgot when I was checking out. Guess I'll order some online. Where is the best place for cones ?

Congrats on winning the fabric. I am sure you can find a way to use it!

I apparently picked out a pattern for a simple looking dress that is not so simple to sew. Mother in law kept asking if I was sure it was a beginner pattern and then switched to she is sure it is not for beginners and she will find me a simpler pattern. I think I will see about one if the Carla c dresses

I am sorry to hear that. In addition to the Simply Sweet, the Stripwork Jumper is also easy to make. However, the two dresses are highly similar that you can probably just get away with one of those patterns. Oh the Portrait Peasant is also quite easy too.

Which two did you buy? If I had little ones, I'd have such a hard time choosing since they were all so beautiful!

I am far behind so there is WTMTQ but everyone has been so busy making the cutest things. Welcome to all the new members. Everyone here is so helpful and we love to see pictures - Disney or not.

Just wanted to say hi to Cheryl. I'm glad to hear that you finally got to go on your cruise, sounds like you had a great time. And good luck with that slipcover. I am with Diane - just buy one. I think slipcovers dot com has lots of sizes.

ncmomof2 - I hope you guys had a nice trip to the world. I see that you have stayed at ASSports a few times. I will probably be staying there in January and I was curious which building you usually stay in.

Diane - love your launch outfits. Congrats on a successful launch. I guess if you can design all those beautiful embroidery designs you don't need to hand applique. I can't believe you created those designs for your Lady and the Tramp outfit. They are so beautiful. Sounds like you had fun at the sewing expo. They have a quilt expo coming here next week and then in the spring the sewing expo comes. I will be going next week but I look forward to the sewing expo more since they have more embroidery stuff.

Michelle - Congrats on your launch. That set came out really cute. My DD loves the Aristocrats.

D~ In looking at your projects again and I have to comment because the appliques are just amazing. That guitar on C's bag is PERFECT.

Thanks for the compliments!

Pyrxtc, congrats on the fabric, very cute!

I forgot to say to Andrea, hope the Dr appt went ok for you.

So we had a great time at the circus. Dd2 loved it! And here is a photo in action, did not get one on my phone with her standing.

Really like the dresses. I love how it is "Cinderella" without being Disney's version and no embroidery or applique.

She looks like she was having fun. Looks good on her.

I definitely agree with this. I prefer the Simply Sweet pattern though because the pattern comes with more ways to vary it. It comes with different strap options and you can make it as a halter or jumper style dress. I like the portrait peasant dress too.

Oh, I loved both of those dresses. They are so pretty!

That's so cute! It looks like she had a wonderful time. We took my girls when they were about that age and they loved it! We took them every year until they were around 9 and 10. The Dumbo outfit was perfect for the circus.

Andrea... How are you doing??? I hope everything is OK - I've been thinking of you.

Thanks. We did have a great time and the Glow in the Dark thread works great on the dark rides. My kids loved it.

Just reading this now. Sounds like you had a great time. I want to get some more Glow in the Dark thread. Like I just mentioned in the PP, my kids loved it.

I got my glow in the dark thread from Marathon thread at the Sewing Expo last week. I also got thread that changes color in the sun. I bought the one that turns from blue to purple but they had three other color choices too. These special threads are more expensive than the other threads but they are fun to use.

Hi Everyone,

Once again, I am pages and pages behind. I've read along and enjoyed all the wonderful creations, but I never seem to have the time to quote. I'm so sorry not to properly admire everything that has been done in the last month!!

I have been sewing and have a couple things to share and a couple more in progress. First, I picked up this women's tshirt over the summer...

...and turned it into these Riviera leggings, my first project from Sewing Clothes Kids Love.

And, after many hours and lots of mods, I made this for dd to wear on our trip...

It started as the licensed Simplicity pattern, but I made a ton of changes including a button placket instead of a zipper and different sleeve embellishment. I found this tut for the sleeves and liked the look better than the teardrop appliques. I was inspired by ellenbenny and Boutique Ollie Girl to use all calicos instead of satin.

Next up, I've got a Peter Pan Precious Dress started (similar to last year in a larger size) and a Mickey Christmas Feliz ready to cut out.

Back to work for me!
Regards,
C.

Love the Snow white! Thanks for the tut, I may need to try this soon.

Has anyone gotten a Belvah bag? If so did you find it easy to embroider on?

 

[pyrxtc]

I was enlisted to make a clown costume for my Mom. Glad patterns are on sale this week. I think I have enough circus fabric left from my dress but I'm going to check out some shiny stuff to add as patches too I think. Any tips ? She asked that I do a velcro back instead of buttons or zipper. I guess it has come full circle almost, my mother's mother made me a clown costume when I was little and now I'm making my Mom one.

Brave comes out November 13, 2012
