Disboutiquers Part 7 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

[karamat]

Hi All, I went to print up more door signs today...I'm obsessed! This is it. I sware...do you think I have enough?
And this is the saddest picture of all....

I love the sad Mickey... that's the way I always feel at the end of my vacations!

OMG!! LOVE IT!! I have been wanting to make one of these word books. Of course I'd have to buy the blank book. I've read about making them with the cricut, but considering mine has not been out of the box since I bought it a couple of months ago, I don't think I'll be making one anytime soon!

I just had to share my great news....

I got a promotion! A nice little raise, more hours and a manager type position..!

thanks for all the positive vibes!

Congrats!!! Does this mean you don't have to worry about tickets to DW?

Okay, this is what I have been doing today. It is the first of many outfits for Disneyworld in Sept. It is a little longer than I wanted, but I do not want to redo it so I will live. The bad thing about this skirt is that it is so heavy. This one did not take as long as the first one like it did. Sorry the pictures are not great.

Twirl factor:

She didn't want to take it off to go to sleep.

Just came back from a little cross-border shopping trip. DH took the day off since he has to work all weekend (and it's a long weekend too) Went to Joann's and bought several metres of Star Wars flannel and Tinkerbell flannel for comfy pants for camping, Wall-E & Buzz fabric for shorts and pre-shirred Minnie and Princess for sundresses! I officially love Joann's!
Oh, and we also went to Toys'r'Us for the kids to spend some birthday money, and Target for all sorts of other stuff. And we didn't have to pay any duty or taxes. Great Day! I'll post pics tomorrow - it's all in the washing machine right now

 

[MegaWoman]

You are the Goddess of Wonderful!

I was MIA today! Trying to get everything in order for our meeting with MAW on Monday! I have to order all new birth certs! I cant find tehm ANYWHERE! And I have no custody papers on Zoe so I have to find a 9 year old court case number and try to look it up that way at the court house! Wish me luck that I am able to get it all done by Monday!

I have lots of pictures to share tomorrow! Old projects I am finally getting back to and finishing!

NIght!

That turned out so pretty.

Get guys! Just a quick reminder that the robin plus five ship date is Friday. They have already started receiving stuff. I haven't been around so if I'm repeating sorry. Since they are receivu their packages by general post it might be a good idea to send a message when you send the outfit or other pixie dust. Thanks again to all my fairy godmothers!

Thought I would come here this morning for a little inspiration. I feel stuck right now!

Love the new pink minnie and the ariel outfit.

 

[minnie2]

Who else was looking for larger sized patterns at YCMT? I was just reading my latest newsletter and they have a new tween/teen section!!

I was! I saw that I am excited!

Nikki actually fell in love with this outfit at Joann's yesterday but there was NO way I was spending $12.95 on a pattern so I told her when they have their McCalls patterns on sale or if Hancock has their .99 cent sale I will buy it because she wants it for the 1st day of school. It is really really cute too. I could probably make the skirt with out a pattern but the top I need the pattern.
http://www.mccallpattern.com/item/M5461.htm??tab=list/hilary_duff&page=all

I think you could easily extend the sleeves. What I do is go straight from the underarm. I add 2-3 inches to the sleeve length so it will puff out at the wrist. I like to use elastic shirring at the wrist so there's a cute little "ruffle" plus the sleeves can more easily be pushed up out of the way at meals. Usually 2 rows is enough to keep it pulled in without being too tight.

thanks! I actually finished the top last night and that is my new fav top! Now I know why every one makes them! They are so adorable and so easy! Nikki loved it too! Now I have to make one for her Minnie skirt ad one for my niece too for hers! I told her how I could make it long sleeve and maybe even a dress ad she got excited! Me too frankly! sad huh

I've made it without the hemmed skirt part several times. I used a full width of material in the total length that I wanted. Of course the first one was too short and I had to add a ruffle, so you may want to err on the longer side because you can always trim it down later. Run a seam to make the width of fabric into a tube, then press the fabric so that the seam is down the middle back. Now you align the armhole pieces with the side and draw on the neck curve. I had to extend that part I believe because the pattern uses a narrower piece at the top, but it's easy to just sketch along the curve once you have both armholes drawn on.

It is fine on my size 6, not chubby DD, but YMMV.

Here's an (oddly cropped) photo of one of the tops:

Thanks!
that is so adorable!!!!!!!

I just had to share my great news....

I got a promotion! A nice little raise, more hours and a manager type position..!

thanks for all the positive vibes!

Congratulations! This little guy is doing the Happy Dance for you!

I finally have some finished projects to share! Finished dh's shirt this morning, but the others have been done for about a week or 2...

First, Sara Beth in her Minnie Mouse dress. I was thinking of adding a little embroidered minnie mouse near the bottom on the red/white part...what do ya think? Or a daisy near the top?

Here is Ashley in her top that is part of our family matching set.

And dh and me....don't mind me...I didn't wash my hair today and walked a few city blocks...tell more later!!! And dh likes to make funny faces for the camera!

i know I resized them, but they look huge...sorry!

The Minnie dot came out so cute!
Love yours ad your dd shirt! Where did you find the round neck for you? FYI you look great!!!!!
Your DH shirt is wonderful! You ahve me thinking now I may have to do something like this but I am not sure I could find a pattern for Giants! DH is 6'4'" and has huge shoulders so I might need an entire bolt of fabric for him!
Really great!

Have you guys seen the patchwork bucket hat on ycmt? I made the XS size 0-6 months for my coworker's shower tomorrow to match the bib and burp cloth I already made her. It is so cute! I'll take photos in the morning. I can't wait to make one in the XL 5-12 years. I thinking that one will be much easier. I need one to match every outfit now.

No I haven't! I can't wait to see it though.

Good luck getting all of that done! can't wait to see the new stuff!


I sure hope every one who isn't feeling well feels better soon! Especially all the little ones.

When Nikki wakes up I need to take a picture of her in her new Hannah Montana skirt and top. She is going to wear it at our DVC event Sat.

Megan was walking by and said, oooh, what a cute outfit! So sweet that your daughter didn't want to take it off!

Ooh thanks, gotta mail that this morning. I got him a Fenway Park shirt and Red Sox school supplies

 

[Camping Griswalds]

Has anyone heard of Wall E or Eve being in the parks? I am having a Wall E custom made, and would love a good photo opportunity!

 

[minnie2]

Ok Here is my latest. The pictures didn't come out great for some reason but oh well. Nikki also wasn't in the mood to model this morning

Twirl factor which I love

Love that skirt! It came out so pretty. I tried to talk dd13 into a patchwork twirl, but she said no... I am making her a tiered skirt with 2 fabrics. That is my next project once my colored pencil roll ups are done! And the shirt is great. I love those peasant tops. And the hanna material on the sleeves is perfect!

I haven't heard of the characters wandering around yet but there is a photo scene set up where you can take a photo with a lifesize wall e in a little walle scene. I'm thinking it's at Hollywood Studios/MGM.

Yep, found the link, here's a pic

I'd be happy to share the whole book, it's just that I'd have to black out any faces in the pics If I posted them. I didn't think you all would wanna see a bunch of swirly faces. If you don't care and just wanna get an idea of what's in the rest of the book, just let me know- I'll go to work and post the rest.

I would love to see all the pages!

Woo Hoo!! COngrats!!

Vedry cute! I think a daisy would be really cute on the Minnie Dot dress. I also really like your round neck tops!

Yes! I really want it even though my kids rarely wear hats. I'm also so excited about the tween/teen section.

That turned out really cute. I love those skirts!

Sounds like a productive day! I'm sure it helps that the Canadian dollar is so strong right now too.

We don't have a Target locally and I get so excited to get out of town and shop there. My friends are amazed when I have a huge list and can spend hours there - LOL!

Good Luck getting all your paperwork in order. Sounds like quite a chore, but I'm sure it will be totally worth it in the end.

So cute and awesome twirl factor!!

I have an idea for a tiered skirt for Nik ad I have the fabric I just need to make it now.
I have learned with Niki for the most part if I just make it or just buy it she usually really likes it . If I ask her she usually says no.

I haven't heard of the characters wandering around yet but there is a photo scene set up where you can take a photo with a lifesize wall e in a little walle scene. I'm thinking it's at Hollywood Studios/MGM.
