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

[Camping Griswalds]

So I am thinking of getting out my rotary cutter while watching the Olympics. Is 5" by 5" pretty standard size to cut for a patchwork twirl? I plan on doing 3 layers and then doubling the length of the layer (not the patches) for my first one. Although it might be easier to just double the patches for my first time, that would be more math than I feel like attempting tonight.

So won't the finished patches be 4" by 4" once they are all sewn together (due to seam allowance)

My daughter just turned 4 and has a 20 inch waist.

I'd love any help

="Navy"]THOSE WITH ADOPTED CHILDREN! HELP!
I went yesterday to register AbbyGrace for school. I took her original birth certificate from China. I also took her adoption certificate. The school didn't want a copy of her adoption certificate, so they only took a copy of the birth certificate. Today I get a call from the school asking if I knew if I had to have a TEXAS birth certificate to register her in school. Well, NO, I've never been told that. It doesn't sound right to me. My SW NEVER said that this was the case, and what about all of the children that weren't born in Texas - they aren't allowed to go to school here? What about all of the children from Mexico that live in this state? Does this sound right? Any suggestions on what I need to do? We've not gone through the process of re-adoption because we were told that it wasn't legally necessary, it would just be a convenience. Any thoughts?[/COLOR]

I practice law in Alabama but I am not familiar with Texas adoption code. Check to see if you can have the adoption domesticated as a foreign judgment. This would take a lot less time and money to complete. If you do not know a local atty, you can call your state bar association and request a referral for an adoption atty in your area. Good luck.[/QUOTE]


My DH knows someone that practices family law. Is that who we need?

That is a very cute outfit. I love that your doggie's name is Tinkerbell that is the name of one of my dogs. Shame on that Tinkerbell tearing up your covers.

We are in the Fort Worth area. We moved her from NC about a year and a half ago after living there for almost 10 years. My hubby and I are both aggies.

Whoop!! Class of '96 here.

You can! All you need is a Cricut and the Cricut Design Studio software! I'll send you instructions of how to make the word books if you have them.

Could I get a copy of your directions also? I don't have the CDS yet, but certainly think I need it for my still-yet-unopened-Cricut

 

[ncmomof2]

Whoop!! Class of '96 here.

I am class of '94 and my hubby is class of '95.

Hello...Here I am again, making outfits that I really shouldn't be...I still have 2 outfits to make for our cruise... Anywho, here is Ireland's Witchy Minnie for our day at MK, during Halloween.
I haven't made Alexis's yet...boy I have a lot to do. Anywho, the bottom isn't hemmed yet...I'm putting a band of either the orange or the candycorn along the bottom...

After posting the pictures...I see that the top looks weird around the top of the bodice. The dress is WAY to big for the hanger, but the top looks like the bodices that I usually make...It's not straight across...

Wow, this is just "spooktacular"!!! I LOVE it!!!!

Hi disboutiquers, I am not bigdisgrandma but I am her daughter Anne. She asked me to post this because she and my sister Lindsey are banned! Anyway, we have been busy at my mom's house doing a mini-big give. When mom read ibdamama's trip report about their Wish trip in 10 days, she said "Those little girls need a new dress for their trip!" There was certainly not time for something as incredible as the outfits that have come to Lindsey's children but she had to do something. So she got out the sewing machine and we girls did what we do best, we went shopping. Here are the pictures of the dresses that she made for Rachel, Mia and Ashley. We hope they love them as much as we loved putting together. We will send them off tomorrow with some extra surprises in the package for them.

Thanks for letting me post this. Mom is pretty excited to start the pay it forward plan! Again thanks for everything you are doing for Lindsey, Bryan, Brody, Karlyn and Gabby.

bigdisaunt?

Awww those dresses are beautiful. How special!!! I just love how many big gives are going on...it melts my heart!!!

PROJECT RUNWAY!!!

Okay, I am gonna admit it...I just watched Project Runway for the very first time!!! I love it....where have I been?????????????? Do you guys all watch this show? Are there other clothing design shows on that I am not aware of??

 

[HeatherSue]

I have missed you guys!!! I haven't had time to come over here for the last few days. But, I just spent a few hours catching up (not writing my TR like I told Teresa I was going to do). I started quoting everything I wanted to comment on and then I got overwhelmed and tired.

I watched the "Cinderella" song video and bawled my eyes out. I mean, I was literally sobbing! What a tragic story and what a beautiful song!

Henry and I had a wonderful 14th anniversary. We've been together for 18 years.

I was going to post this on our anniversary, but I'll do it now instead. This is the speech my dad gave at our wedding ceremony. It makes me cry every time I watch it on video.

It was November 24, 1974 that this beautiful girl came into my life. I remember when she was born, the doctor motioned to me to come along and watch the birth. What I received was a little red faced bundle of joy. They say red faced babies have quick tempers, which proved true with her, but her loving spirit outweighed the temper. As many of you know, Heather is a caring person, not only for humans, but for her many animals. She’s a lot like Noah, she has to have two of each animal.

Another thing about the young ladies in our family; they love shopping. The favorite spot for them to shop was the mall. This was the case with Heather and Henry, they met each other at the mall. You might say she had a successful shopping spree, finding Henry

Two beautiful people with equally beautiful qualities met and fell in love. As people who know Henry realize he’s always there to help day or night, asking nothing in return but an appreciative “thank you”. He’s overcome many hardships in his life and turned out to be an outstanding young man.

The thing that’s notable about both of these young people is their smile. Who hasn’t been charmed by it after getting to know them? There’s a lot we could say about them in a positive way, but most of us know about these things
Being the father of the bride, I’m going to miss my little girl.But, as they say, you’re not losing a daughter, you’re gaining a son. He’s a son that both I and his parents can be proud of, just as I am of my own son. I wish Heather and Henry a happy marriage, and I love them both very much.

Is he a wonderful dad, or what?

You just watched it for the FIRST time?!! I haven't missed an episode!!! I LOVE Project Runway! I think there's another show called Design Star or something like that, but I haven't seen it yet.

There are new episodes on right now. I think it's season 5 or so. You have some catching up to do. I think my all-time favorite outfit on there was from season 1 when Jay made a dress to resemble the Chrysler building. It was GORGEOUS!

Heather that is so sweet.

Isn't he wonderful?

I just read your trip report!! It's great!!

[MouseTriper]

Please HELP.....does anyone have a really good picture of ZERO the ghost dog from Nightmare Before Christmas??? I have looked and looked but can not find one of just him????

 

[jessica52877]

Hey Heather, glad to see you around!

Linette, the outfit is so cute! Sorry about the covers. For some reason I think you'll be whipping out some new ones shortly. You are so quick!

Back on the first thread (before it was cut into pieces), way back when, there was a clipart of Zero. Not sure that it would even be possible to find it, maybe try a search on here.

that is so sweet. what a great dad. since we are talking about daddies, my dad is the one who showed me how to use the sewing machine. he taught me to thread it and how to sew a straight line. when i was in high school i needed a clown costume for a play, he and i tried to make it, i layed down on the fabric and he traced around me we were just about to cut when my grandma came in and took over, whipped out a pattern and everything and made me a really nice costume that i still have. so my dad is pretty cool too

Sorry I have been MIA guys. I do catch up each day (and am amazed at what you guys turn out- just beautiful work that continues to inspire me to get better). In getting the promotion, I am working both jobs right now- so many many hours of overtime. The kids love it. They get to play a lot of wii while I am logged on at home. all of this will end, but until then I will mostly be in window shopper mode. I am doing my morning pass thorugh before I start working.

Project Runway ROCKS!! Tom has most of the best quotes EVER listed. He only forgot "hot mess". I have a friend who has said that for years and it always cracked me up.

Heather, you dad's speech got me all teary. How very sweet.
