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

[HeatherSue]

Very cute, Lisa! I love it!

It looks even prettier on your beautiful girl!

she did wind up scaring the dog...LOL

She winded up scaring me, too! The dress is beautiful! She does look like she should be in the Haunted Mansion!

Hi, I've been lurking for ever and posting under my DD's name GoofyG.

I'm finally on here, yeah!

My DD and her kids and my DH and I go to Disney World together. My DD comes up with the ideas for the clothes, and I get the privilege of sewing for her 3 kiddos!

Yay for getting your own username!!

Ok ladies, I did it. After faithfully reading this thread for a year, I bought a sewing machine today !!! I am so excited to get started, I have never touched a sewing machine so while reading the manual I am a little intimidated. I am sure it will take me a while to learn all the bells and whistles. I got the machine, it's a Brother and is a special edition Project Runway model for $130.00. I bought some clearance fabric and will practice on that. We are going to MVMCP in December and my goal is to make matching outfits for DD and DNiece. I bought some Mickey and Cinderella appliques yesterday and plan on finishing off some plain shirts with the appliques and other trimmings.

I am so excited to get started, of course DH has already said don't try to make any matching shirts for him because I would be wasting my time. He is such a party pooper. Oh well back to the manual, you know I bought fabric, good scissors but what did I forget to buy, Thread!!! So back to the store tomorrow after work so I can play around with the machine a little bit tomorrow night.

to the sewing club!

You have to trick your husband into wearing matching shirts. You just set it out the day he's supposed to wear it and not let him know he matches everyone. Then, when he sees it, it's too late to change! Not that I have any experience in this matter.

Very cute!! The dress is great, too!

You have beautiful children!! Attikus is truly a gorgeous baby! I love all the outfits, too!

 

[mytwotinks]

He everyone! You have been busy little girls while I have been away! I was able to steal a little internet on the dock, so I watched some of what you guys were doing . It is really slow, so I didn't comment, but I am very impressed as usual.

Riley and I got home this afternoon and we are going to go back down tomorrow afternoon and take her best friend. I am a little concerned right now, but I am trying not to freak out. Riley is laying on the couch and her head feels warm. She says she isn't in pain, but she doesn't fee totally normal. I am hoping that she is just as tired as I am. I am praying like crazy that she isn't sick. School starts on the 12th so we are running out of time to figure this out.

We had a great time. We went to the outlet mall in Osage and got some great deals and then spent yesterday at "big surf" water park. It was pretty hot and probably will be when we go back tomorrow.

I was going to have to drive to Iowa to pick Drew up, but my bil is having boys weekend at the lake so he is just going to bring Drew to me there! WooHOooooo!!!!! I am saving about $150 on gas!!!!!!

[mommyof2princesses]

Hi Folks!
I know its been forever since I have posted!
I just wanted to hop on and post a few things I made for Megan.
Im also opening an etsy shop. Just pillowcases, etc for now, to see how things go. Im working on a sonbonnet sue applique quilt for DD2 now.
Here are 2 robes I made. One is sort of a play robe- I have panda fabric to make pants to match and the other is a beach cover up lined with organic hemp terry- very soft!
Panda robe-



Nepali Chupa robe for children (Folkwear Pattern)
This will have pink tyes out of the same fabric as the collar, this is sort of my own design since the pattern does not have directions for lining.

reversible

Very cute! I love the panda robe. Very oriental looking.

Well, I decided not to bore ya'll w/ more pics from the MK trip. But My DH thinks he's a photographer and every once in a while gets a great shot so I thought I'd share a couple he got while we were there.

For all you Jimminy fans

and here's a great view of Tomorrow Land

Now, on with the show.

Here is Lily's "bubbleduck" dress. It's Carla C's Simply Sweet Tops and Dresses with the halter style bodice. She is wearing her pettiskirt under it though it's a little long for it.

It was a good hair day!

And here is her 4th of July twirl top. It is Dainty Designs stripwork top but I doubled the width of the panels for fullness I used democrat fabric to get taunt my republican aunts (I'm surprised they haven't been disowned by my grandparents ) and to tickle my husband and my Pap. It did just what I wanted it to

The Back

And a twirl

You may notice that we take a lot of pictures in front of my front door. Well, little mostly refuses to go into the grass whenever I want her picture taken and picking the flowers on my Ruellia keeps her entertained while I try to snap a few shots.

So there. I am off to fill out my financial aid....for school that starts in like 2 weeks you know, I mean to do these things. I really do! But my life always seems to be in the way. Hopefully I will get a good amount of aid and at least a few of the classes I need aren't full. It won't be the first time I registered for classes this late.

...t.

Love that bubble duck dress. Very cute. And the 4th of july top is adorable! Love how it ties in the back.

Hey, this is mine!!! It is the new Feliz pattern that just came out. I made it at the last minute for this little girl. She was making her first trip to WDW and Ariel is her favorite. I wish ya'll could've see how excited she was when she first saw it. I'm not sure what part has been "cased" since it is new pattern, but it is adorable. I am sure we will be a lot of these dresses (I mean this pattern -- not necessarily Ariel) popping up on ebay really soon. I know I have several in the works myself.

Was it hard? I really want this pattern. I won't be able to make anything with it before Disney, but I was thinking for Christmas. Lisa said she likes the patterns and I don't mind adding the seam allowance.

Just wanted to update everyone on the Make a wish for my daughter!

We met with our wish granters tonight! In fact we Just walked in the door!

Zoe was so shy lol, but it was adorable! They came with toys for the kids (A cinderella crown, a princess puzzle, Markers, crayons coloring books ect) Zoe's first wish was to go on a disney cruise for a week and swim with dolphins and learn to snorkle! She also added a night in CInderellas castle but I doubt they could do that. lol, It is nice to dream about tho!

They needed a second wish in case the first one could not be granted. She wished for a trip to Hawaii where she wanted to do the same things but also Visit Pearl Harbor and the black sand beach.

Here is a picture of her with her Wish Granters:

We have to wait to see which wish is approved (If any) They said it could take up to 4 weeks but they think it should be a little sonner then that.

Thanks again for letting me share! We are so excited!

Candice

That is so exciting! I am hoping for some Disney for ya'll. Of course, Hawaii would be pretty cool too!

I hope she is okay. I know she doesn't want to miss out on school. Maybe she is just really worn out from haing so much fun!

The girls got their haircut today....short!

so cute

 

[CampbellScot]

Well, it's not in time for MAW but here is the patchwork hat. At first I was not crazy about the pattern. I did not like sewing through the paper and it was taking too long. Then once I got all the little pieces sewn together it went together like lightening! I'll save it for another project.

Went to two wal marts and no eeyore fabric. On a happy note, I had Jacob with me and he picked out two fabrics for himself! That never happens. He wants me to make him a first day of school outfit. Woo hoo!

Oh my HOLY CUTENESS!!!! Steph that shirt is PERFECT!!! I love it!!!!

So cute! We don't see enough pictures of Lily!


I just bought these buttons on etsy. They are supposed to be about 25mm, so they should be a decent size. And they weren't very expensive either

 

[lovesdumbo]

Well, nothing it seems was accomplished here as far as sewing goes. I had high hopes of finishing 3 dresses while my parents were here and I haven't gotten any of them done. And now we are packing up and going to a hotel because the fumes in the house are getting too bad!

The painters are here and they are staining my built-ins and painting my new office and dining room. It really STINKS! So off we all go (parents included since they don't leave until tomorrow) to Embassy Suites. The dog is at his posh kennel so he doesn't have to suffer either. Right now I''m not happy about the color of stain on my built-ins in my family room so hopefully that will get fixed. I'll try and stay in touch but we will be in a hotel for two nights.

Keep sewing!

Sounds like a great idea to go to a hotel! Hope you have fun!

[twob4him]

HI everyone!!! Its been a LOOOOOOOONG time. Life has been so crazy. I still have yet to sew anything for Georgia in a long time. Lets see on the update.

I hope everyone is doing well. I have missed you all!

Hi Princess Kell!!!! We did miss you!! Sorry you haven't gotten a chance to sew but I am glad you are at least getting some help from the in laws. I hope you can get to Disney....I am trying myself

I finished Joe's shirt for Chef Mickey's. I never knew how difficult it can be to sew on black-my eyes aren't as young as they used to be. I liked Lisa's idea of yellow & red buttons but went with the black ones I had on hand.

I love love these outfits! The shirt came out great Really cute stuff!

I made Lizzy a Pooh hat. I was able to enlarge all the pattern pieces 5% on a copier. I used the same size to make one for Joe. I still need to add the lining. I bought those patches in 2006.

After seeing all these cute bucket hats, I may have to get the pattern....so tempting. They are just adorable! I love the patches too

Here's a dress I made for Emma and top for Lizzy. I used the bodice of the Tiered Flouncy Sundress and the "skirt" of the a-line to make these. Super quick and they look so perfect for Disney in August.

Awwww I love that fabric...so cute! The look very comfy!

 

[MiniGirl]

MINIGIRL- Great job!! I love this pattern. We had a post of a similar on w/ the butt ruffles (not ariel) recently and a few w/ these Ariel fabric combos. I love the butt ruffles but I'm kinda askeered of a farbenmix pattern!
:

t.... I went back and saw the butt ruffle discussion. What can I say... I love 'em, too. Shoot, I love ruffles everywhere.

Don't be scared of the patterns. I'm not expert with them, but the few I've done I really like. I have actually found them easier than some domestic patterns.

Miss Mini Girl....I love that dress, and hope you sell it somewhere soon!

I cannot believe the response I have gotten from this dress. I love it, too. Sadly, it is a OOAK. I don't have anymore of the fabric. LOL!!! I will definitely be making more dress with this pattern though.

Was it hard? I really want this pattern. I won't be able to make anything with it before Disney, but I was thinking for Christmas. Lisa said she likes the patterns and I don't mind adding the seam allowance.

It was a little hard at first because the instructions on my pattern are in German, and I do not speak or read German. However, Nancy Langdon (the woman who made the pattern) has a wonderful photo tutorial on her website, and that made it much easier. I can't seem to get the link working though. I'll keep trying.

I know you posted this a few pages back, but I have noticed (I live in NH) that I have been sneezing a TON lately. I think it is all the rain we've been having, supposedly mold spores are super high. Could she be allergic to that?

And were you just looking for an excuse to make those adorable bucket hats? I know I am! (Please know I am just kidding, I know having a sick kid with no explanation is NO fun!)

I was kinda looking for an excuse for the bucket hat but it might be beyond my skills at this point!!! She might be allergic to mold, we haven't taken her to an allergist yet. We know that she definately has seasonal allergies (runny nose, sore eyes, cough). All this rain is making this year nuts!

Has your daughter been checked for Migraines? I started getting them when I was FIVE. Your daughters headaches and the following side effects sounds very similar to my migraine stuff when I was that age! You might mention it to the doctor...sometimes they don't think to check for migraines in children. I hope it's not, but if it is you could get proper medication and she'd feel a lot better!!!

No, her pedi wouldn't consider migraines last week when I mentioned it. I get migraines that started in HS. (Luckily there were almost non-existant after my pregnancy- I only get 1-2 a year now instead of 1-2 a week when they were at their worst!). The "motion sickness" is what made me think Migraines. It's going to be an ongoing mystery I think

She is adorable in her little pumpkin sleeper! I just love halloween festivities. Is there extra halloween festivites going on around salem?

Yup, Halloween activities actually go on for the entire month of October in Salem...the fall solstice is around then too so both tend to be big to-dos (for those who don't live in the area...we still have practicing witches!)

Aisling was so cute as a tiny pumpkin. If Aisling is having problems with motion sickness it sounds like it might be her middle ear. Which can be associated with Sinus problems. I learned this the same way Aisling is. It is not fun. Does she look like she is having trouble with her balance at all? This is also a symptom of middle ear problems.

Funny you mention that...check out below!!! (no middle ear infection right now though, my pedi at least checked for that!)

I hope you get this figured out, the poor thing! And, poor Mommy, it is so hard to see our children in pain.

Thank you! And Happy Anniversary to everyone!!!

Well first, let me say that I missed some great work today...I'm just catching up after my last day of vacation . I loved all the hats and outfits...OH and the beach cover up...forgot who made it...sorry! So my drama with Ash continues. My mom and I took her to Water Country today (local water park). I made sure to give her Benedryl, kept her sunglasses on all day AND lathered her up with plenty of sunscreen. Well about an hour into our day, she is playing on this pirate ship and all of a sudden I hear a scream. You moms know what I mean...pool has 200 kids in it and you know it's yours. I run over to her and all I can see at first is what look like a blue dot on her forehead....and I got closer I realize that it's a gigantic bump. So I run her to first aid and they called the EMTs. The blue dot kept getting bigger and bigger and then burst...SO gross...and so hard to hide my "grossed out" look as to not frighten Ash (I guess the blue dot was some kind of blood blister). Luckily nothing was broken and she didn't need stitches but she now has a GIGANTIC lump/cut on her forehead and I full anticipate at least one black eye. Just what the poor kid needed...more pain in her head! My poor baby! AND now she is on vaca with my mom til Friday so I can't even take care of her myself.

It's going to be an ongoing mystery I think

Ped. wouldn't consider them with a family history?! Good grief...my doctor was the same way...said it was everything under the sun...it was my urologist of all people who diagnosed the Migraines! That was b/c his little daughter suffered with them too! He was right though. I sure hope your little one doesn't have them though. They are wretched!

did she get hit? Or was she bitten by something? Poor baby. Just can't catch a break!

I was meaning to tell you how much I love your daughters name! I have a cousin Aisling in Ireland...along with her sisters, Aoibheann (Eve-een) and Aibreann (Av-rawn)!! They've always gone by Ash, Evie and Ava! Wonky spellings from the Emerald Isle!! But beautiful names!!

I hope your little one feels better soon and avoids any more calamity!!

OMG!!! What was it? Was it just a bump? or could this have the cause of her issues? That poor baby. Send her some hugs from me and Jenna.

 

[disneymommieof2]

All this new cute stuff!

??? for those of you with 2 yr old girls.

I am making this skirt for my niece and my cousin gave me her waist measurement of 191/2 and that sounds so big for a 2 yr old! Nikki's is only 22 1/2 and she is 8. My niece is very tiny and I know Nikki is tiny but still. When I cut out and put the elastic in the casing it still looks so big.
So my question is what is your 2 yr old's waist measurement. I asked for ehr to measure Anya's waist again but I am not sure she is doing it right. They are in Tampa so it isn't like I can just get in the car and measure it myself.

My 2 yo. has a 19 1/2 waist. I see you got a bunch of responses, I'm sure it will turn out great!!

HI everyone!!! Its been a LOOOOOOOONG time. Life has been so crazy. I still have yet to sew anything for Georgia in a long time. Lets see on the update.

Kevin is still gone, so that means I am working two jobs and taking care of the Little Georgia Peach. Its summer, so its been tough with the YMCA bill, but at least the ex in laws are helping with that. She goes there every three weeks so the bill isn't so high. if she was there the WHOLE summer it would have been $1600! Thankfully, they get how hard it is since Kevin isn't really helping $$ at all.

No Disney trip this year.... but working on it.

I am looking at everyones new outfits and they are sooo great! Totally makes me want to dust off the machine and get to town (when I have time of course! )

I hope everyone is doing well. I have missed you all!

Good to "see" you again. I've been wondering about you two!

Hi Folks!
I know its been forever since I have posted!
I just wanted to hop on and post a few things I made for Megan.

Just wanted to update everyone on the Make a wish for my daughter!

We met with our wish granters tonight! In fact we Just walked in the door!

Zoe was so shy lol, but it was adorable! They came with toys for the kids (A cinderella crown, a princess puzzle, Markers, crayons coloring books ect) Zoe's first wish was to go on a disney cruise for a week and swim with dolphins and learn to snorkle! She also added a night in CInderellas castle but I doubt they could do that. lol, It is nice to dream about tho!
They needed a second wish in case the first one could not be granted. She wished for a trip to Hawaii where she wanted to do the same things but also Visit Pearl Harbor and the black sand beach.
Here is a picture of her with her Wish Granters:

We have to wait to see which wish is approved (If any) They said it could take up to 4 weeks but they think it should be a little sonner then that.

Thanks again for letting me share! We are so excited!

I hope she gets her wish!! Either one sounds fun! But I'd be partial to the Disney Cruise!

Well, it's not in time for MAW but here is the patchwork hat. At first I was not crazy about the pattern. I did not like sewing through the paper and it was taking too long. Then once I got all the little pieces sewn together it went together like lightening! I'll save it for another project.

Went to two wal marts and no eeyore fabric. On a happy note, I had Jacob with me and he picked out two fabrics for himself! That never happens. He wants me to make him a first day of school outfit. Woo hoo!

I keep an eye out around here for that eeyore fabric I want some too!! Megan looks cute in the new hat! Looks like another winner from ycmt!

The girls got their haircut today....short!

Just what the poor kid needed...more pain in her head! My poor baby! AND now she is on vaca with my mom til Friday so I can't even take care of her myself.

OMG! What was it? did she fall and get a big knot or did it just appear? Poor baby. Give her some hugs from all of us. And you need to push the migraine thing. It is very possible it is migrains. All of her symptoms sound very familiar. I get "mild" migraines. I say mild because I have friends whose migraines make them really sick.

The Wall-e dresses are so cute!

Wow, I bet it does have some twirl factor!

NAh but thanks! I have come to realize my Joann's is awful. They only had a Viking ruffler foot ad when I dared suggest that I know some one who ought on there for other machines she got rude. Then there has been several times the lady that cuts the material has been down right RUDE! Once to Nikki and I was fuming so much so I told the mgr. How can any one be rude to a little 8 yr old kid when was just trying to be helpful and hold a ult of fabric for her mom?!?!?!? Any way thank you very much. i did see a few online that I may order. Or I will actually take the time and figure out how to work my embroidery machine

Sorry, I guess I am lucky because the ladies who work the cutting counter are always very nice and interested in what I am making. Now the cashiers are another story...

Don't be scared of your embroidery machine: you can do it (says the person who doesn't have one!)!

Scallops are hard! It looks great!

Love the Mickey shirt! I bet he will get lots of attention in it!

Now, when you enlarged, did it fit on the paper? When I printed the xl size it barely fit on the paper so I am wondering how you enlarged it. Or do you have to change the printer margins?

It turned out so cute and I really like the one with the patches. So unique!

Cute! You did a great job.

HI everyone!!! Its been a LOOOOOOOONG time. Life has been so crazy. I still have yet to sew anything for Georgia in a long time. Lets see on the update.

Kevin is still gone, so that means I am working two jobs and taking care of the Little Georgia Peach. Its summer, so its been tough with the YMCA bill, but at least the ex in laws are helping with that. She goes there every three weeks so the bill isn't so high. if she was there the WHOLE summer it would have been $1600! Thankfully, they get how hard it is since Kevin isn't really helping $$ at all.

We've missed you Kell! I'm glad your in-laws are helping some.

Very cute! Thank you for sharing them.

So cute! I really like the back of the 4th of July one. Lilianna's hair looks just beautiful!

Riley and I got home this afternoon and we are going to go back down tomorrow afternoon and take her best friend. I am a little concerned right now, but I am trying not to freak out. Riley is laying on the couch and her head feels warm. She says she isn't in pain, but she doesn't fee totally normal. I am hoping that she is just as tired as I am. I am praying like crazy that she isn't sick. School starts on the 12th so we are running out of time to figure this out.

I hope Riley isn't getting sick. Sounds like you had a great time!

You scared me! Seriously, your daughter's hair is so cute, and now she can join the cute bob club with Jenna, Arminda and Megan!

Oh my HOLY CUTENESS!!!! Steph that shirt is PERFECT!!! I love it!!!!

Oh good! I am glad you like it!

Those are cute buttons!

Where is this? Baby DS loves Diego.

I think that is in Downtown Disney, at the Lego store.

Ped. wouldn't consider them with a family history?! Good grief...my doctor was the same way...said it was everything under the sun...it was my urologist of all people who diagnosed the Migraines! That was b/c his little daughter suffered with them too! He was right though. I sure hope your little one doesn't have them though. They are wretched!

did she get hit? Or was she bitten by something? Poor baby. Just can't catch a break!

I was meaning to tell you how much I love your daughters name! I have a cousin Aisling in Ireland...along with her sisters, Aoibheann (Eve-een) and Aibreann (Av-rawn)!! They've always gone by Ash, Evie and Ava! Wonky spellings from the Emerald Isle!! But beautiful names!!

I hope your little one feels better soon and avoids any more calamity!!

Thank you! Ya, I'm hoping that it's just allergies (headaches) and not migraines. I know they aren't fun. Can't imagine if I had to deal with them as a child

Thank you about her name. Yes, Gaelic names are a little tough to pronounce/spell. I heard her name when I lived in Ireland and thought "well that one isn't too bad!!!" But of course, everyone is assuming that she's saying Ashley. But she's quick to correct them!!

OMG!!! What was it? Was it just a bump? or could this have the cause of her issues? That poor baby. Send her some hugs from me and Jenna.

Thanks to you and Jenna.

OMG! What was it? did she fall and get a big knot or did it just appear? Poor baby. Give her some hugs from all of us. And you need to push the migraine thing. It is very possible it is migrains.

Thank you! I should have clarified that I don't actually KNOW what caused the bump. Ash is saying that she "walked" into the back of the pirate ship (I was standing in the front and all I heard was the yell and then crying...4 lifeguards in the pool and they didn't see anything either!). BUT, her leg was also scrapped up so my guess is that she was trying to climb one of the water slides the wrong way and fell and bumped it. I had just spoken to her about climbing up the slide in the wrong way on the FRONT of the ship...so my guess is that she listened really well and went around the back to try it.

Best part of the story is that right afterward she asked if her boo boo was going to be gone before Disney because she wants to be pretty for the princesses!!!! Thank God, my DH wasn't there. I would have never heard the end of it. He thinks I've turned her into a Disney freak as it is

I love the hat! I just bought the pattern and will be making a Cars themed hat for my friend's DS's 3rd b-day. You DD is too cute too!

Are these handmade Mickey buttons? Verrrry tempting to get my hands on some of these!


OK, I'm off to clean bathrooms today, later on tonight I'll post pics of all the things I've been making. (I've obviously been neglecting the housework - I'm glad none of you can see the bathrooms!!!) Then I'm finishing up the birthday gift, then attempting my first portrait peasant dress for DD.

See ya later!
