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

[goteamwood]

OK, finished my own Toy Story shirt and I love it SO MUCH I could not wait to share it. I had my kids try to take photos with my phone, hence the not-flatterning low angle, and it took like 20 shots to get one in focus.




The designs are from Miss Kenzie Mac, I LOVE them, so cute. I made a brother/sister twin set for my friends trip w/ Woody and Jessie and they turned out super cute. I can't remember if I shared them here or not.

Here are a few other things I made recently, I can't remember if I shared. If I did, sorry.
I know I posted a blurry pic of these, but I finally finished the sashes, and cannot believe how outrageously cute they are. Trying to figure out how to inexpensively get a small bunch of plain multi-colored balloons to take to MNSSHP since we are staying in AKL we can't have balloons...


This was a birthday gift for playmates of my kids, twin girls turning 4. They don't have American Girl dolls but have something similarly sized so they were thrilled to have matching outfits to each other and to their dolls. I got the doll shirts at ARB blanks and they turned out super cute. I don't anticipate making a lot of doll clothing, but it is a cute gift.

That purple/pink polkadot fabric was on clearance at Hobby Lobby for like $3/yard, and was PERFECT for Doc McStuffins.

And I made these Grace Ruffle dresses, started them last summer and they sat for a year, finally wrapped them up a few weeks ago (and managed to sell both!)


These were for a big give, a Purple princess dress and a Cars outfit for the little brother.



And the 9 shirts I made for my friend's kids for their trip, her boy/girl twins are turning 3 this week and she has a 5-year old. (they left this morning.)


Now back to work on my own stuff. That one-month-2-days ticker stresses me out!

Love all of these!!!! Everything is sooo cute!!!! Good idea for character placement on your shirt. I hate the designs hitting me at a certain level. That would be much more comfortable!!

So finally got the pattern cut. Started to fiddle with the serger. Thread broke, so had to rethread. Decided while I was at it, to change all the thread. Misplaced my manual. Got copy online, but can only look at it on many phone, internet still not working. I usually have no problems searching for stuff, but my phone internet has been wonky as well. Does anyone have a good link for threading a brother 1034d?

[PurpleEars]

Hi Flora! September has been really busy getting used to everyone`s new schedules but I think we`ve almost got things under control...or at least as controlled as my household will ever be with 5 people going 5 different directions most days!

Yes, coming in November is not the nicest time to visit. Hopefully this year will be a sunnier month than the more normal gray and rainy Novembers that we have most years.

I can`t wait to see what you`ve been working on!

Judy

I can't imagine trying to coordinate 5 people going to different places! Some days it's hard enough to keep track of where I need to go...

We used to live in London so we know the November weather very well. It will be a trip to mostly see family and friends so I imagine the hospitality will warm us up. My project is related to this trip. I am making a signature quilt for my aunt who is undergoing chemo right now. I thought a quilt would cheer her up (and keep her warm). So far, I am calling it the "4 time zones, 3 generations, 2 sewing machines, and 1 crazy coordinator" project. I still need to get a couple more quotes from the participants to finish the quilt top.

I have been up sewing until midnight or later for more than a week and I'm still not close to being finished. Of course I've had more on the needle than just Disney. Here is most of the Disney from the last week and one birthday gift that I thought turned out cute.

Looks like you have been busy! I really like that bag with the matching horse! Great job on the BB clothes - I still can't fathom making something that small!

So I bought a new pattern this week. Had my fabric picked out. Stayed home instead of going out dancing. And my stupid internet can't stay connected for longer than 7 seconds, and it takes 10 seconds to download my pattern.
And I think my computer broke, so you guys will have to post some pics of cute stuff to cheer me up!

I hope the internet connection will work better for you, because I am sure it is very annoying to have an idea and can't work on it. I saw that you had a question about the serger. I have a different serger so I am afraid I can't help you with it.

Wow! You have been busy! I really like that top you made for yourself. I bought the Devon when SisBoom had the sale recently. I may have to add it to my "trip clothing wish list."

I am pretty sure I commented on FB but the picture of your boys in the Wilderness Explorer outfit is super cute! I can't believe how much you can accomplish in a day when you have 2 young boys running around! I am sure your friend's family is going to get lots of questions about their outfits. I hope they will have a great time there!

 

[sewmess]

Back from Disney and I thought of you all every time I saw a custom anything!

I did get a couple of things done for myself, but I'll have to wait and get pictures after they are washed. I just did a quick look through the pictures we have uploaded to the computer and none of them show up well.

Love the Toy Story shirt.

We are getting ready to head to disneyland, there were a lot of things on the list to do before we leave, but I only managed to finish this. It is the Out and about bag from ycmt:

Hi Everyone!

Thank you for the simply sweet dress pattern recommendation at the beginning of summer! I am looking for an easy girls skirt pattern now with no zippers/buttons. I have looked on YCMT but just a little overwhelmed on what to choose. Just need a fairly basic skirt with no pleats.

Thanks again for your help!
Ashley

Everything is adorable! I can't decide which I like better - I love them all! I can't believe how much you've done.

We leave in one month and 5 days and I am stressed too. Then, I just found out I have to have surgery on Monday. Totally was not expecting that! I am now positive I won't get everything done that I wanted to. I am quite upset. I had some really cute ideas for the little one and now that just won't happen.

I hope you don't stress too bad. Good luck getting everything done in time for your trip!

How did you make all those badges? SO cute!

 

[goteamwood]

How did you make all those badges? SO cute!

I found image files of the wilderness explorer badges on a google image search and arranged them in photoshop and cleaned them up a little (when they were sized up they got blurry.) then had them printed at spoonflower.com. At first I had them printed 6 to a yard but the yard was WAY too long, so I had it re-printed on a fat quarter, which was the perfect size. I made the sash w/ brown canvas and the spoon flower fabric is stitched onto the canvas. High-tech/low tech. I had an insane idea that I would do a satin stitch circle around every single badge to make them look real then I realized that is INSANE and I have two kids and WTH was I thinking? So it's flat and just printed on there. There is a pin w/ the grape soda bottlecap which is an actual pin I ordered from etsy.

As an alternative to what she did, a friend of mine is following a tutorial to make the patches on the little felt pads you put on the bottom of furniture. I don't have a link, but I'm sure you could find it if you search!


I love all of your creations, goteamwood!!

Hi everyone. As so many others have said, you all continue to inspire me with your amazing creations. Here's a few things I've been working on over the last couple of months to try to keep up with all of you!

Four Quarters Dress (by Monkeysbug):
front

Jackets from a recent Big Give:

Skirt (with button hole elastic):

Hidden button and opening:

Judy

Everything is adorable. Great job!

Ok....I just can't keep up. Its always something. So I will just stop apologizing for being behind because I'm afraid, this is just me. So hopefully you won't mind when I do pop back on.

Scbelleatheart...I hope your son is doing better.

I loved the belle dress and the other wonderful items on the past few pages, which my failing memory can't recall at this moment. My phone is a pill and has trouble quoting.

So I had a second miscarriage (almost exactly a year apart) and am having a hard time getting back to sewing. I have a ton of ideas, but just can't start. I also got a new serger at a great price. But scared to use it. I know I just need to turn it on and try it, but..... :/

My daughter keeps changing her mind about Halloween costumes, lastest is Buzz. Does anyone know where to get an embroidery design for the chest plate on buzz?


Edit....hey jude.... love that skirt with buttonhole elastic. Great idea and too cute!!

So sorry about your miscarriage!

I hope you got your serger re-threaded. Mine is a Singer, so no help here. Sorry. Also, hope your computer comes back to life. They are such great tools...unless they act up!

My grandkids change their minds constantly about who they want to be for Halloween. And since I make the outfits, it gets to a point where they are not allowed to change their mind!

I don't know what's worse - purchasing embroidery designs or sewing patterns! I really should stop browsing websites with either item

BTW, were you able to connect with Teresa re: Big Give group?

I also purchase patterns I don't use! I spent this past weekend buying more embroidery designs. Now that more Christmas is coming out, I'm seeing way too much I think I have to have. Someone just stop me!!!

I PM'd Teresa a while back, but haven't heard back from her. Thanks for the suggestion, though, and for asking.

I love all of your creations, goteamwood!!

Thanks. I did see that tutorial, it used the felt pads and printed the badges out on clear labels. I thought that there was too much likelihood that my duo would peel all the decals off and wreck the things.

And, as an enabler, I wanted to share this in case you didn't see it. http://scientificseamstress.blogspot.ca/2013/09/i-like-big-gigantic-sales-i-cannot-lie.html
I picked up this lot, some really cute things in there and about $1 a piece can't be beat.

ETA: oh yeah, the reason I came by. My son has been BEGGING me to make him a knight outfit for a month. Every single day. "Have you made my knight outfit yet?" then today he upped his order to be a knight outfit AND a dragon outfit for his twin brother so I he can protect me (the princess, naturally) from the Dragon. Weak plot-point where I made my own nemesis aside, I took him to Joann fabric to pick out his knight fabric. He picked this insanely shiny, thin, nightmare-to-work-with fabric. So I paired it with $3/yard gray felt and the Portrait Peasant pattern to come up with this in about an hour. I spray basted the shiny "Knightmare" fabric to the felt and it was a breeze to work with. I did the shield from felt too, which I added an embroidery design I downloaded for free. I have since added another elastic lower than the shield to make it less dress like.
And what does the knight think? I know you're dying to know. "Um, Mom, where is my shield and my sword and my helmet???"
Sigh.

And with some elastic:

 

[nowellsl]

Love this! I'm gonna go check out that pattern!

I bought a cloth napkin at WDW a while back and decided to make it into a cover for my kindle fire





I don't really like the white elastic (it holds the cover closed), but didn't feel like running to the store to see if they make colored elastic - does anyone know?? Orange would have been perfect!

I think I have enough left to make a wristlet I just thought the fabric was cute!!

I LOVE that fabric, what a great idea. Now I will need to shop for cloth napkins at Disney World, because, you know, I never have enough fabric.
