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

[t-beri]

I finished my DD animal kingdom outfit today. It is big but I think it looks cute.

This is so cute! and the fabric combo is awesom. I love the white/ blace dots w/ the zebra. Very cool~!

Teresa: NO! This is the 1st attempt at that twirl top, but I didn't pay any attention when I was reading the instructions and made it a dress!!! Then I decided I really wanted it w/ the jumper straps anyway so I remade it TOO BIG. it is still in her closet

B has a gig in Orlando on Sat. For all of you in the area it should be great fun. It is a walkathon for a dude that is brothers w/ a friend of one of Brandon's friends
He is playing just before a childrens musician named (i think) Mr. Richard. So if you can head out here is the info.

But then I called Disney (which isn't all that close to Lake Eola) But they are BOOKED!!! Now I have to find a hotel

Teresa-hit your insert button next to the delete button. This should solve your problem with it replacing what is already typed.

Amazing Heather!!!!! You're a true artist! Tessa looks so pretty and a bit older .... did you tell her she isn't allowed to grow up?????

Thank you!! I've tried telling her, but she just won't listen. She's very stubborn!

That's it. I have had it. I have made 3 different kinds of dresses/skirts out of the eyelet I bought for myself (I wanted a flowy summer dress) and all of them look terrible. I either look like a walking down comforter, a nurse, or a volcan. I kept trying different styles after ripping the previous ones' seams out and I have yet to make anything that does not cause snickers or scares small children. I need this outfit for a family photo shoot on the beach. If I was thin this would be much easier but alas I am not. I am very frustrated this evening.

I'm sorry!! I've found that flowy white things are just not for me! I end up looking like a marshmallow, or a sail on a sailboat. So, you are not alone!

1. About halfway thought this post, my computer stopped letting me just ad the th_ for thumbnails (it did that stupid thing where what you type replaces what was already there) so, that's why I only quoted about half the pictures!
Does anyone know why the computer would do that though? It's very annoying!

2. C A T H Y !!!!!!!!
did you hear me yelling at you all the way from Michigan???!!?? I about dropped off my chair when I saw your little ones short short "haircut"! You got me!

You are pure evil!

But, your other daughter's haircuts look absolutely adorable!!!!!

3. I've always took comfort in the fact that at least my birthstone was pretty!

4. Yep, my babies were all over the place!!! Brian and I are nice and short, so I'm not sure how Lydia happened!

I mean, why she is so short! I do konw how she happened!!!

5. At McDonald's a few months ago, there was a mother who kept calling her daughter's name,so when they were leaving I said, "Good-bye Laura." You should have seen the look of surprise on the daughter and mother's faces!

6. Well, can you throw them in the washer and dryer when they get dirty like I do my .25 garage sale purse, that I've had for over a year?

7. Of course, if you wanted to donate one of your Coach bags to the less fortunate (meaning me!)I would be willing to give it a chance!!!

8. Goodness, for a minute there, I thought that last pictures was Miss Sophie herself!

9. This turned out F A N T A S T I C!!!!! Seriously cute Heather!!!! The fabric is wonderful! And Tessa as always, is stunning! Dad's camera does take great pictures, doesn't it!

1. I don't know why it happens, but Corey told me to click "insert" (in the very top row of keys on my laptop) and it corrects the problem. See, I can be taught!

2. I KNOW! I was about ready to call you on that one!

3. That and your face, you silly girl!

4.

5. I would say it was more a look of thinly disguised terror!

6. Yeah, these Coach fanatatics are not convincing me it is a sound investment! But, they are cute, so I will humor them! Someone told me there is a thing for Coach (and other absurdly expensive bags) that works like Netflix!

7. I could be convinced to love Coach bags if someone were to donate one, too.

8. Yeah, I thought you would appreciate that caption!

9. Thank you! Yes, it takes great pictures when it's not in Dad's hands!

Wow, another fantastic outfit! Are you REALLY a beginner???

In case you didn't know, Disney has finally released their 2009 package prices! The room only pricing seems to be the same as last year, thankfully!

So I just got word from my mom that she is going to help me pay for Georgia's 7th birthday.....at DISNEYLAND!! I am soo darn excited. We are just going to say we are going to visit Grandma for the weekend and not tell her until we get down there. hehehe

So I guess I better dust that machine off asap and get to work on her outfits! on top of school clothes. ha!

That is wonderful! I've thought of you often while you were away and I am soooo happy that you have something fun to look forward to.

Alrighty...here is my first picture post!

These are the first dresses I made my DDs and their dolly...

And here is the first Disney outfit so far...This is the one that the bias tape was giving me so much trouble on. And I don't know why the top came out so wide on her, but she's excited! (me too...I finally finished something in less than a week!)

And I started on making a Wall-E shirt for DS, since last night I finally learned how to make a buttonhole!

How cute! Can't wait to see your Wall*E shirt.

I finished my DD animal kingdom outfit today. It is big but I think it looks cute.

LOVE that! I'm so bummed my oldest thinks she's too old for minnie dots and my youngest doesn't like any dots.

Grammy is taking good care of her! Is the hat really that easy?!?!?

It is very easy. I will admit that on a couple they look a bit out of line while I'm making them but they still all come together fine. The directions tell you to gather the top band to attach the top to it but I just pin it and it works fine. You can do it! Off to go work on anotehr one right now.

Very cute!! I really like it.

I just finished my AK outfit today. I will post a picture as soon as I take one - but first I have to watch Wipeout. It is the funniest show ever!!

I have exciting news! I found the large Minnie dot fabric on Ebay!

 

[mommyof2princesses]

Has anyone done the Simply Sweet dress in a size 6 months? How well did it fit? I hav a baby shower coming up for my assistant manager and want to make her dd's matching dresses. If I make a 6 month size dress, how long till it fits an average size baby?

Anyone?

 

[iheartdisney]

These are cute!!!! I love the Pooh one! What pattern is that?

Thanks, the pattern is Buttrick B4778. Apparently I went through a "wanting to sew" phase last year, as I pulled a bunch of patterns out of my sewing stuff box when I started this kick! I found the cutest patterns in there for some little girl stuff, but mine are too big for now. Oh well!


You guys go so quick in here, I can't keep up! But you are all so inspiring, hopefully I can get that good someday!

DD and her favorite birthday present...her very first AG doll - a just like you doll which she named after herself, Kirsten....her poor Sleeping Beauty Doll that she got at WDW has been neglected and possibly replaced!

Love the dress and the doll! Happy Birthday Kirsten!

Here is a Winnie the Pooh shirt(no she is not holding the cat, she decided to jump up when I was taking the pic..lol)

Everything looks great! But I love the kitty picture!

The matching skirts I made for Nikki and my niece. I put it on her AG doll and had her hold the extra fabric in the back, Problem is now she wants one for her Nicki doll!

she matches so well huh I am going to make them both white peasent tops to go with them.

I had such a hard time with Nik's skirt ugh I kept screwing up on it. I sewed the ruffle ad the yellow peice on the wrong way but there were too many layers of stitching so I just cut it off and sewed it on the other way!

Love those! I have been slacking on making matching doll clothes and my girls aren't happy about it.

So I just got word from my mom that she is going to help me pay for Georgia's 7th birthday.....at DISNEYLAND!! I am soo darn excited. We are just going to say we are going to visit Grandma for the weekend and not tell her until we get down there. hehehe

So I guess I better dust that machine off asap and get to work on her outfits! on top of school clothes. ha!

Speaking of, Misty, have you finished Breaking Dawn yet????

I don't think she has, but I have!

I don't know if anybody else has received this message, but I thought I would go ahead and post it.

Thanks for the update on Linnette. I was afraid that is what was going on.

I made a school outfit for Tessa this week. I'm not sure if it's going to be her first day outfit or not. She LOVES it, so I'm leaning towards yes.

I used my dad's SLR camera. That thing is so cool! I think I might steal it from him. So, these pics were taken in their yard. I also had fun decorating them with Corel paint shop.

GORGEOUS! I love that fabric. Sugarbees had some and made some stuff to sell with it and it was very popular!

Anyone?

I'm thinking it is probably pretty true to size and would fit around 6 months. Carla's sizing is usually pretty good.

This set is really sweet...it doesn't look to big, I think it's really cute..

 

[t-beri]

Just to add insult to injury... Last week I twisted my ankle. It was no big thing. It hurt but no swelling or bruising. Maybe 2 nights ago I twisted it again and it really hurt for a few minutesthen it was fine. I got home and realized that it was bothering me and looked down and it I all swollen. GRR! If aunt flo shows up on time I'll be doing just peachy like it could get worse for me today.
Tomorrow is a new day...

All these fantastic Halloween outfits are getting me so excited for Halloween!!!! (it could be that or the freakishly Autumn-like weather we are having in Boston today!)

 

[Mouse House Mama]

I love that Justice League one! (of course they are all gorgeous but that's my favorite!). My kids would love that! Did you use a pattern?

 

[kafitty]

Thanks Heather, but it's an actual HTML code for a ticker I am trying to add to my siggy. There isn't a link it's an embedded code ( I think)
...t.

t-beri, i think you're having problems with your siggy because there is a 12-line limit to how much space you can take up. Does that make any sense?

That's why people's pictures get cut off, like your ticker is getting cut off now. If you put the end from the big give image code and the beginning code from the ticker right next to each other, instead of starting on a new line, it should keep it from cutting off the ticker.

i don't think that made any sense, but i tried! :laughing:


and i'm sorry about your sinkhole! :crazy2: haha somehow that smilie seemed very appropriate.

Hi,
I just finished my shirt for the NICOLEDISNEYFAN big give. I signed up to make a Mickey shirt for Victor. Then I realized that the family would be going to MNSSHP so I made it a Halloween themed shirt. I made it using CarlaC's bowling shirt pattern.

This is the back

And here is the front. I found the cute Mickey Halloween fabric at Joann's this week. I bought enough to make some Halloween outfits for my boys too.

I plan to get this mailed tomorrow (if the fates and my 2 year old cooperate ).
