Disboutiquers Part 30 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

Hi all!

I used to be a member here when my daughter Tori was going on her wish trip and with everything that was going on with her illness I lost touch. I wanted to get back in touch with you ladies because I really enjoyed talking with you and I love seeing all of your creative ideas!

I've started an etsy business and it is slowly doing ok. More importantly, it lets me be here with Tori, although we are hopeful that she will be starting second grade in the fall!!!

So hello again! Oh, a quick question because I know a lot of you have the PE770. Each time I use the machine, it leaves tiny brown spots which I think must be oil? I have had to use a layer of stabilizer on top to protect the shirts, but then sometimes the stabilizer gets caught in the thread and looks messy.

Anyone know what is going on??

Hey yay!!!!!!!!
How are youZ. Glad to hear that Tori is doing well. Send me an email if you get a chance.

I literally just made a checklist of this last night. 24 embroidered shirts and 10 bowling/other shirts that need to be sewn. Need to decide on costumes for mnsshp also. Plus two pool robes (stealing the idea from Diane's big give ones earlier this year) and 4 hoodies in case it's cold. Wishing I could use the bigger hoop but not hopeful about the machine issues magically resolving themselves. :(

So far I have 3/4 bowling shirts, 2 camp shirts and 2 raglan shirts cut out. Purchased all the blank t-shirts and the fabric for almost all of it. We are going over Halloween just the 4 of us.

Sewing wise is a total of 40 T Shirts (more if my daughter in law decides they are going to wear shirts as well- for a total of 70 shirts) plus three or four dresses for the grand daughter.

Our trip is November 30 through December 9. Seven of us going....at least 4 will have matching shirts.

So far I have a grand total of 6 shirts made....

I think!

I have done about 8 sets of tshirts so far. I still have tie dye shirts to do, I need to finish up our MNSSHP costumes (pirates!) Dh's is mostly finished, need to start on mine. I also have some skorts to make for me.

We are going the first week of September

Just DH and me.
 
Hi. I just want to thank everyone for their comments, support, and links to help me get started with appliqué! :) I got some basic things to get started and now I need to just jump in and try it. I'm a perfectionist which keeps me from starting things. After seeing what an embroidery machine can do it is pretty tempting but for now I will have to stick with the machine I have. I was wondering how easy or hard it is to embroider a name with a regular sewing machine. It does have a satin stitch. I need to just bite the bullet and try this.

Must Do: New park bag. The zipper broke on the one from last year (it was a thrift store zipper, so no great loss)
Want to do: I just decided to do some of those new, trendy, fabric pocket w/monogram on t-shirt (I'm using it as an excuse to get some cool fabric swatches from spoonflower:thumbsup2)
I've got an idea or two for some stencil t-shirts for me and/or DH


When is your trip? Late September

And apparently I got delete happy, because I swear I answered that I'll be sewing for DH and I, 'cause that's all there is.

I just made one of those trendy t-shirts with monogramed fabric pocket with some white dots on red fabric from my stash and a block letter from the included alphabets on my machine. And again, DH has hidden the camera. :laughing:
 
I've been trying to finish one dress each week. It's been hard to do with the temperatures we have been having. My computer/sewing room is like a sauna.

Here are two more dress for the oldest niece (she is getting more since she doesn't have any from previous years that fit).

A flower print Circle Dress



Stitch Dress - she still loves him


Close up so you can see the fabric better and Stitch



I just got back the Princess and the Frog dress I made 2 yrs ago, as it doesn't fit my niece anymore:(

Well, I have a ways to go for our trip next summer, but I need to start early on outfits, because I procrastinate. So first I need to make a list. We are going with my brothers family and my mom. I'm not sure how they feel about matching shirts, but if I have to make them for all of us, I better start soon.

I want to start a TR from our trip this past June, but honestly can't figure it out. Anyone have a link on how to start?

And I need to finish editing PPP photos. I got a good start, then just haven't looked at it. So that's first on my to do list.

I finished two AK outfits for youngest dds (easy fits and portrait peasant).
Appliqued coordinating Mickey heads on the AK shirts for us older girls.
Made a sorcerer Mickey shirt for ds14...then realized I had used ds12's shirt.
Made a monorail applique shirt for ds12
Also did three Mickey appliques for girls.

On deck...well, first I'm making sundresses for my two girls who are being baptized this Sunday.
But then...I have probably 6 Mickey heads left to do, 2 or 3 easy fits, and now ds12 wants a Disney Bus applique on the replacement shirt I had to buy him since I used his for his brother. LOL

When is your trip?

First week of Sept.

Who are you sewing for on this trip?

DDs 3, 7, almost 9, 10, and 19

Love the minions! My kids call them the aliens though, which I suppose they probably are a little. Cute cakes and love the colors and the dress!
 
Still on page 53, haven't quite caught up after the move.

So, I am now in Texas and still unpacking in my week 3 but the house is coming together and my sewing room looks great. I may actually get to use it this week since I finally found my iron and most everything is unpacked and put away. I need to make curtains for my boys bedrooms and for my sewing room. So much to do and trying to catch up on here but it's been crazy. Got a headache two nights ago and tried to sleep it off but it didn't work so yesterday I took a Maxalt, migraine med that usually works great, and it didn't work all the way so this morning I just took 2 Excedrin and will probably follow it with another Maxalt later after my DH leave for CA. It knocks me out so and I don't want to miss him leaving.

Can't wait to start sewing again and see what you all made while I was away. I've seen some really cute stuff so far. Still on page 53, so I am about a month behind but now that my computer is set up, hopefully I can catch up quick.

Hi all, I haven't been able to post pics lately, the few times I'm not mobile photobucket is acting up.....anyone else?

I'm sharing one laptop with DH.....who is a laptop hog!

We have a trip coming up in Oct, it is 4 days long......over columbus day, I will mostly sew for DD4, DD 11 months at time of trip, and possibly DS 7 if he will let me. DH & I usually just wear similar colors so we don't have to spend $ on clothes we only wear at WDW. I'm truly grateful we r going on this trip as we hadn't planned on it but changed our minds cause the kids wanted to go so bad......so that's why it's shorter....we haven't been in almost 2 years....my DH isn't a huge world fan but does like watching the kids and I have fun. He has been laid off and I want this trip to perk him up a bit.....it is a budget trip moreso than previous ones.

I haven't decided on what I'm sewing yet but our only ADR is Chef Mickeys.....and my older two love toy story and star wars.
