Disboutiquers Part 4ish Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

[Taja]

Okay. So I said I was going to LOOK at hancocks. Big Mistake! I spent $40, which isn't too bad, but I wanted soooooo much more. I can't believe the fabrics they had. I was there last August and they had nothing. Well, there was at least 7-8 other Disney patterns that I wanted. It was all 30% off and I got a 10% educator discount. So, here is what I got.

This one was 50% off!

A few more:

I am in trouble!

I'm suffering serious fabric envy. Particularly love the 'Tink and Mickey head fabrics! I may have to try to squeeze a trip to Hancock Fabrics this weekend and see what I can see! *LOL*

Still haven't figured out the thumbnail thing. Where does the image name begin? *sigh*

Probably a silly question for you sewing experts. . . but, I am thinking of saving up for an embroidery machine (probably take me a year or two) BUT I was wondering if you can do appliqué's with an embroidery machine? THANKS

I sewed something this week, I didn't just goof around and post totally off-topic pictures!

Here's Sawyer's Buzz Lightyear shirt. He actually likes it! He kept pointing to the Buzz's on it and smiling and hugging the shirt. I don't think he's ever watched Toy Story, but he likes Buzz, apparently.

Love the Buzz shirt!

I wish my cousin KC wasn't so designer clothing oriented. Not customs. Designer. In all caps! *LOL* She has an adorable 3-year-old son named Eric. It would be fun to make something like that for him.

She would put it on him once, then donate it. *sigh*

It was a complete accident!! I didn't even notice until I took the picture!



Doesn't Kaiya Eve claim they make the pettis themselves?

An accident! That is very cool!!

Yes, Kaiya Eve alludes to the fact that they make them.

ACK! Is there a blushing smiley around here? HOLY COW! PLEASE DO NOT JUDGE ME BASED ON THIS ONE, HORRIFIC, POOR DECISION!!!! Okay, in all honesty, it was a BLAST! We seriously had sooooo much fun! And it
was fascinating watching a TV show being filmed...in my house....WEIRD! But seriously...it was all for fun and all for laughs and in ways I regret it, but, at the time (in the midst of a divorce, hello!) the kids and I needed something and why not air your dirty laundry in front of 8 million people? That's my theory! My poor DH...I always tell him, "at least it wasn't "GIrls Gone Wild" or something like that!!!

Pssst.... Hey guys, YOuTube has SuperNanny videos. I found one that I thought might be it, but the lady has blonde hair, kids names are all the same though......

And, Sugarbees, you know we will love you anyway! It sounds like you have a pretty good attitude about the whole thing!

Teresa tracked some clips down. All I have to say is your kids are SOOO adorable and you are one hot mama!

How about a link for the tech impaired and/or lazy? (I fit in the just lazy category.)

So so so far behind right now, no way to even pretend to catch up! You can blame two things for this, number one, my sister called off her engagement for her May ninth wedding and she and my mom came out for a visit so I've been out indulging in retail therapy and having quality time with them

Two, CampbellScott wrote the funniest dang trip report ever and I keep reading it whenever I find the time between disciplining aka playing referee to my two toddlers who are in a fighting with each other over toys phase at the moment

Anyhow, so, even though I've commented far too rarely lately, thought I'd shamelessly share some stuff anyhow cuz I'm selfish that way Noone vote me off the island ok????

First up, Camden is modeling his Dino cropped pants (carla's easy fit pants) and a tee shirt which has been machine appliqued with matching fabric splat

The dino fabric is a pillowcase I bought on sale from the pottery barn outlet

and his mickey head shoe charm I made for him

Gabi has on a shirred ladies top I picked up on clearance at the outlets and just shortened the straps cuz I loved the fabric so much. My mom's idea actually cuz she's cool like that

And her other dress which was made from Simplicity pattern number 3511 and a pillowcase from Pottery barn outlet as well. The green fabric is from my stash

I'm going for sort of an artsy "found" look lately by mixing colors and trims a bit more wildly than is natural for me. If it doesn't work, please be honest, I don't want people saying "poor child, her mother probably made that" when we're out

Can't you just hear her explaining to her brother that this is her modeling session and sippie cups are not a part of it, nor are brothers???

Here is the shoe charm she made all by herself

Here are some of my shoe charms I've made lately although the alien was made by Gabi for me, isn't she sweet

because folks usually ask, that is my foot and the tattoo is a joke of sorts, I love horses, always have, but one stepped on my right foot breaking my little toe right before a ride one day and so I got horse tracks tattooed on that foot.

And a couple more shots because I seriously have the sweetest, bestest, most wonderfulest toddlers ever ever ever and I have to show them off sometimes

Thanks for looking and putting up with my enormous post !!!!

Now THAT is hysterical!!!

WOW!!! We have a real-live "reality" tv star in our presence!!! I can't wait until we dig up this episode! I'm sure I've seen it because I watched every episode that first season!

I tried looking for the live action video of the here-to-fore mentioned Season and episode- however, my sluething skills were unsuccessful. We must purchase Season 1 and the download the whole thing on youtube.......

YOUTUBE!!! Maybe we can find it there! I'm off to take a look! Was Youtube even around back then?? Ahhhhh.... Doesn't matter- I'm still gonna go look!

 

[CampbellScot]

Would it be scary and stalker-ish if I admitted that I already dug up said episode!

If it is scary...then of course I did NOT do any such thing.

*ahem*

I remember y'all! I remember thinking that it seemed like the problem was a lack of support and back up from the dad!

not that I was judging...just being a social worker...well maybe a little judging...but in a NICE way...

*ahem*

not that i'm speaking of the show that must not be named...

b/c I'm not...

I'm just saying...

*ahem*

 

[karebear1]

Teresa tracked some clips down. All I have to say is your kids are SOOO adorable and you are one hot mama!

How is it I missed this????

Anyway.... I found those too...... and there's more then 1 !!

 

[Camping Griswalds]

I just wanted to prove that I actually have been sewing...I made this with Carla's pattern..**Thanks Carla**

The two up close pictures of the Disney Logo and the ships wheel are the appliques on the pants. This set was fun to make...now if only I knew someone going on a cruise...
gosh how I wish it was me..

Can i ask how you are??? Hope you are safe and okay!!!

What Carla C pattern is this please?

I am pretty sure that the top part of the dress is the simply sweet one (its currently in my wish list). . .

YEPPERS! You pretty much just nailed it on the head...can't imagine why I'd want to leave him, could ya now? hehehehehe

Thanks for the love, y'all...I know I was NUTS, but, like I said, we had a blast...especially since we knew it was staged...the kids misbehaving, not their father's behavior, that was pretty much spot on!

 

[jessica52877]

Alright, help all us poor souls to make sure we are watching the right clips! What episode # was it?

 

[CampbellScot]

Alright, help all us poor souls to make sure we are watching the right clips! What episode # was it?

I would totally tell you...

but we are NOT speaking of episode 8.

it is FORBIDDEN.

 

[jessica52877]

I surely won't watch that one then! LOL!

I swear I clicked every single other one!

I must say I have started watching supernanny because it is usually funny, funny to see the nonsense. I think all tv is staged, even reality though, so no worries of thinking that all these kids acted in all these outrageous ways, all the time! I am sure they pick the worst stuff they can find.

 

[Tinka_Belle]

I have always thought that the kids on the show were being made to look worse than they are and the children on that episode didn't look all that bad.

Not that I'm talking about that show.

 

[Taja]

YouTube.

How do you look up stuff? It totally befoozled me!

Give me a busness application or spreadsheet and I'm in heaven.

Give me YouTube and I'm in trouble! *LOL*
