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

Hi remember me? I asked about making a Merida inspired dress. Well, I did it. Initially I wanted to make one for my 4 year old. But she doesn't like the dark green color that I had. This was a fitted sheet that we don't use anymore, and bits and pieces of trims from an upcycle craft store.

So I made one anyway, but for my 8 year old. I used 2 patterns, the top is for a peasant blouse and the skirt pattern and then I just sewed them together.

A note though... all hand sewn because my machine didn't work. I do enjoy sewing by hands, it just takes forever.

That is gorgeous! I can't believe it's hand sewn. I don't have the patience to hand sew buttons!

The stroller cover turned out really cute! Great job!

Here is an outfit I made for my 10 month old granddaughter earlier in the season. They live in Colorado, so this is the first I had pics of her in it.




She is so adorable! The outfit looks GREAT.

And I made a dozen envelope pillow cases for some ladies who own a shop. They wanted "popular" initials in different colors. Not sure they will sell for them, but that is what they wanted.



Don't know why that first photo didn't resize for me. Sorry about that! I'm meeting with those ladies today for them to tell me other things they want me to make for their shop. They and their shop(s) are in Virginia, so I'm trying to get everything settled before going back to Ohio on Friday. I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Your DGD is super cute. You did a great job on her outfit! The pillowcases look nice! I hope they will sell well!

Oh my goodness! That dress looks gorgeous! I can't believe you did it all by hand! That's a work of love! Great job!
 
Almost finished this one. It just needs some pink ribbon that I will have to go and buy tomorrow. This is my third Rapunzel dress. Each niece has one and a friends daughter. The other two were made a while ago and each one is constucted differently.

this is awesome. I am making a Merida inspired shirt for my daughter today.
 
All of you are so talented. I can not sew for the life of me. I'm envious. I can make a mean hair bow though. LOL

This is darling! Great job!
 
Slowly but surely I am chipping away at my to-do list for our trip. And miraculously so since my children have 100 percent given up napping this week, like not a wink.

These are the outfits for Pirates League. I booked pirates league and the pirates and pals fireworks voyage on the same day, so of course they need outfits. I sort of made up the pirate shirt, it's very roughly put together, but I figure so are real pirates, right? ;)



And Carla C's Scientific Seamstress group on FB is having an Easy-Fit-a-Thon so I figured I would knock out a few pants/shorts on my list. I got the pirate ones and 4 more pants done, including these PJ lounge pants, and have 4 more pairs on the sewing desk that only need elastic but I ran out, so I have to get more.

And these to go with t-shirts I have yet to make for a friend's kids for their Disney trip. And a skirt for the sister.



One more messenger bag for a friend's birthday:


Whew! Of course I keep looking at the list of what I want to get done and wonder how I will fit it all in. :) If only everything was as quick and easy as the Easy Fits.
 
Once again I marvel at how much you get done with 2 active little ones! Everything is adorable as always! Those pirate shirts are great!

I have never made the easy fits. They always looked so big to me in the legs, but when I see what everyone else does with them, they look really good. I guess I'll have to break down and get the pattern and give them a whirl. Keep plugging away, you'll get everything done. You always do.:thumbsup2

ETA: I forgot to mention I LOVE the fabric for your friend's bag!

Btw the easy fits are on sale on etsy for the weekend only in celebration of Carla's new book. $5. :) I love them as shorts for boys. And pj pants. I've never done the girly ruffle pants, they're not my favorite look :)

"Whew!" is right! Those are some cute pirates!

I tackled the Scarlett dress again this week and in the Minnie fabric! Love how it turned out. Added a sash to hide my less than straight topstiching. :) I like it better with the extra red around the waist, anyway!

You can learn. I'm just starting to learn. I already made a dress and now I'm working on some really easy shorts. I'm no where near able to do what the other ladies here can do but I'm really enjoying just learning the basics and creating simple things! Give it a try!

Ditto this! I'm a beginner as well. Sewing straight is definitely my biggest challenge. I've just been reading a lot and study my patterns/instructions before jumping in. I really think almost anybody could sew if I can!

That's my problem, sewing straight. Haha! I'm definitely going to try though. Thanks!
 
Hoping these pics work and aren't too big. I rarely post pics. So apologies if this a bust!

Here are the 10 outfits I worked on for my 2 year old for our trip in September! I am so pleased with them! The John Deere one is for our dinner at Garden Grill with Farmer Mickey. The USA flag one is for our World Showcase night (and he wore it on the 4th of July)and you can probably figure out what parks the other ones are for. My son also gave up napping a month ago. Ug...I was dreading the day that happened. Now all of my sewing involves burning the midnight oil when he is in bed.

Those are so cute! I love the cars one and the pirate one but they're all adorable! Great job. Who says you can't make cute stuff for boys? Not me!

The outfits are adorable! I love the prints. I seem to have to cross the border from Canada to the US to get some cute prints.
