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

[t-beri]

Yes mam. It's just so hard to take care of yourself when you are the mom. I know I am going to be running after Lily all weekend. I was really hoping to got to AK on sunday But I will stop by the Target on my way home to look for a bandage. Whatever I did it is hurting my Knee and my hip worse than my ankle, it just looks the worst. But I twisted it like 2 weeks ago and then twisted it again just a little a few times that week. Then on sunday Lily pee'd her pant on my MIL's tile floor only I didn't know where she'd done it and as I went to get something to clean her up w/ I slipped in a puddle It was quite comical. Just like someone slipping on a banana peel. I knew immediately my back was wrenched, funny thing is I haven't had any trouble w/ my back since that day and then out of nowhere my ankle blows up on Tues. GO figure. I might call my primary and see what he thinks, but he's a schmuck so we'll see.

I told B as that we will just chill at the hotel tomorrow night and order pay per view...maybe hit the pool a little and if I'm not feeling better sat he will have to do his thing w/out us and I'll stay at the hotel w/ Little and watch cartoons with my feet up.

This is really cute!!!!! Great job!

I've been fearing that today. I can get the swelling down w/ ice and ibuprofen but it comes RIGHT back. I need to stay off of it but it doesn't seem to really be an option. I will most certainly be chasing Lily around the park all day saturday at her dad's walkathon gig.

I am still recovering from the bills of my last injury.

I hate to go to the doctors and have them say "oh, it's just a twisted ankle..."

I don't know what to do. It doesn't hurt terribly but i was squatting down to get those pics of Little and my ankle turned right out from underneath me...boy THAT did hurt!!!

Where is everyone today?
...t.

Your ankle looks exactly like mine. In fact my boss was just looking at it and said that I really should go to the ER (if you recall...I hurt it back on the 4th of July and it's STILL all swollen like that) So I'm the bearer of bad news...the swelling on a sprain doesn't go down too quickly at all!!! Sorry.

Really cute strawberry shortcake dress on Little btw!

tinkerbelle outfit (the green is better looking than in this picture)

Linnette. I'm so glad that you are okay and that you are back!!! LOVE the Tinkerbell outfit!!!!

My model was not cooperating so here is the pillowcase dress, made with help from my mom Made this to coordinate with the birthday dress my bought for my 3yo DD for her party at Chef Mickeys

Love it!!!! How fun to use the yellow

More cute stuff to see! (although I'm getting a photobucket error messages for some of the images) Y'all really make it hard on a gal who just has a boy.


OK - I got Mickey done. I think I'm going to do a cake or something on the back after the front is completely dried. Not sure if I want to do something on the legs... thoughts on that?
Or maybe put a cake on one of the legs and balloons on the back? OR??

I'm trying to not over analyze it... I guess I'm happy with it. If anyone sees something that could be improved (touched up etc) please say something! Like I said before, I won't take offense. This is only the second time I've done fabric painting. (and, no, I don't do any other painting either...)

Jessica - thanks for the information. I figured it was something to help out kids, but didn't understand what/who it was for. That is really cool that y'all are doing that! I'll peek at the site later. DS is longing for some attention since I've been glued to the table all morning painting that outfit.

 

[LisaZoe]

still wondering if anyone knows any good places to get disney applique..any website you can order from?? the ship to the uk with uk pricing too lol

I've seen some of the appliques on quiltshop.com (that is a search engine that checks what's available at hundreds of online fabric shops). I have no idea if the shops ship internationally but that's one place to try.

Thanks for the compliment! I have only made Lily one other pillowcase dress and I did it differently so I don't like this way as well (I made this standard way for a MAW Give) but I think a little tweeking and a cute pair of capris or bloomers and it'll be cute enough for our little park outing on sat...If I get to get out of bed I sure hope your ankle starts to heal up !!! I am going to try to take it easy and cross my fingers

.

WOW!!! That came out even better than the first one!!! fantastic!! I am so impressed. I'm sure the birthday boy will LOVE it!

Since we are so slow today and I couldn't possibly do work while I'm at work I've been cleaning up my photobucket...boy was it a mess

I think it looks great! You sound like me about wanting to add more. I think it's fine as it is but adding a cake and maybe a present with more balloons would be cute and fairy simple additions. Of course you could also add more characters carrying the cake, presents, etc. One reason I started going bigger with my painting - and then applique - is I found myself looking at the blank space and thinking "whatelse can I add". Going bigger left less blank area.

 

[karebear1]

Karen!!!!! I can't wait to see what you have been up to!! I bet its great!!!! Hope you are feeling well!

I'm almost done with the new books- just have to get binder rings and tie ribbons around them. I should be able to post the pics tomorrow!

Glad to see you! I hope you are well?!?!?
I say take us away tour guide!
I thought of you the other day my kids where playing and my dd8 decided she needed a bag to carry her stuff for the play trip they were taking and she pulled out this princess fanny pack I had NO CLUE she had

Your DD has exquisite taste! You must be so PROUD!!!!!!

Now... let's see............... WHAT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR , especially a few of you that have excellent taste in music!

We last left off approaching Las Vegas Nevada! We pull up into the hotel and enter the lobby. OH!!! Beautiful crystal!! And what is all that ringy dingy dingy-ing going on in the back ground??

I won't take you through the check in process for it was long and arduous.... but while we're up in the room, I'll show you the view from the window. WAIT!!! What is that on the billboard?!?!?!? OMG!! Barry's here!!!

We need to go find him..... Is he here??

NOPE!! Not here!!

Maybe he's here. It's a little early, but maybe he's practicing and wants us to come in and critique his performance before tonight's show.

RATS!! Not there either. Guess we'll just have to wait until tonight for our Barry fix. Ahhhhhhhhhh- why wait?!?! Let's go now!! Get ready for a photo tour of his concert. I'll try to restrain myself from posting too many pics!

Are you ready for the number 1 contemporary artist of all time????

Here he comes!

OMG! Can you stand it??? Can you hear it? Aaaanddd I'mmmm ready to take a chance again.... sigh...........

How about some 40's, 50's and 60's music?? My gosh this boy needs to eat a little more!

Into his hits of the 70's and a little COPA..... COPA CABANA, music and passion were always the fashion at the Copa......

What! WHAT?!?!?!?! You mean it's over??? Gotta get another ticket- that was a really, really good show!

Seriously- if you have the chance to go see his show in Vegas you should. It was really wonderful and very entertaining. All the seats in the house are great seats. It's a very small venue- seats about 1500 people- that's it. My DD lives in Vegas now. ...... I think I need to gop and visit her there- SOON!!

Hi Everyone!!

WOW - the outfits coming out are AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Speaking of kids growing up, have any of you heard the song by Steven Curtis Chapman called Cinderella? Its AMAZING!!! He wrote it bout his little girls who were dressing up as princesses when he was busy wanting to do something else (like we all are) but then taking the time with them before they are all grown up. Well, I dont know if you heard the story, but one of his little girls was killed a few months ago - now this song really brings tears to my eyes- they were on Good Morning America this morning (he and his wife and older kids) and will be on Larry King tomorrow....you can google or youtube the song to hear it - its beautiful!!
Wendy

I love Steve Curtis Chapman's songs. They all have such meaning too them. I was hoping to catch him at Epcot at Christmas but I thinks he's on after we leave.

im not to sure what joanns is...is it a american thing? im lookin for like disney iron or sew on ones if anyone knows where i can get some

Have you tried Hobbycraft over here? Its the closest we've got to Joann's or Michaels (but a very very poor attempt!!)

Where abouts are you in the UK?

Just finished my MAW Big give for Nicoledisneyfan.
Leighanna is just about the same size, so she was able to model it for you all.

[/IMG]

What a nice style! Love this different look.

I love it!! That looks like it took a long time to make. My ds would have no problem wearing that shirt..but then again he is 3, and he just asked me to make him a dress today...what have I done to that boy??? He always asked to try on my dd's dress when I get her to try them on.

It didn't take that long. I just serged up the seams, and patched them together. Luishen is 3, so I guess it's perfect!

I love this patchwork idea! I was thinking it of doing it for a twirl skirt. Would you be okay with that???

Sure. It's not my lone idea. I got it from a pattern for sweatshirts, then from seeing Madras shorts that are patched.

Love the patchwork shirt and skirt! I am working on something simlilar right now and I am glad you posted yours. With all the different fabric designs I was getting worried it wouldn't look good, but it looks great! I only have 50 more patches to cut!!!!

This is my origional patchwork jacket. I've made dozens of these. I started to "collect" disney fabric because of this.

. But I digress, been doing that alot lately... So how does one who doesn't have a clue, learn to do the wonderful things you do?

My mother taught me the basics when I was 8. Is there a sewing store near you? Or even a quilt store. They usually have a beginners sewing class. On YouCanMakeThis.com has some great tutorials that help to. The patterns are pretty easy.

OK - I got Mickey done. I think I'm going to do a cake or something on the back after the front is completely dried. Not sure if I want to do something on the legs... thoughts on that?
Or maybe put a cake on one of the legs and balloons on the back? OR??

I love this! I might have to try and paint something. (maybe not!!)

I only Barry when he sang his own songs. But I have to say, your pictures are really awesome!! Looks like you had a great time.

 

[t-beri]

Ok. My whole foot is swollen and it is starting to get a little achy. Since I technically do not have a job I think that I can file for emergency medicaid to help out. I am still trying to take care of all of the bills from the last time I had an accident (we all know that wasn't long ago)

ARGGGH I hate being poor, uninsured and clumsy

So, i'll keep you guys posted.

..t.

 

[charlinn]

These turned out great!! I love the "Bell" one...ugh...now I'll have to a Bell one for DD (4)...hahaha! Great work!! I am sure they will love them!
