I downloaded them to photobucket, now let me give this a try.
DH's wonderful aunt made DD2 a Disney dress for each night of our trip. It was our fist trip and we had a blast. (I cannot sew at all).
This one she wore to HDDR.

OOOH, sorry it's so big.
I dont know how you all are cranking out outfits left and right (UM !). It took a day for me to buy the fabric. A day to cut out pattern peices. A day to pin pattern on fabric and cut. A day to do the bodice. A day to applique. A day to do the skirt and a Day to put it all together. A day to take pics and upload. And since I have two girls...I gotta do it all over again with the second dress!![]()

O.k, so we've had a Lisa and Amy roll call, it looks like we need to have a Riley too!
Until I finally saw Utahmomma say she had a son named Riley I was starting to worry that I was the only one with a human kid named Riley!
My Riley is a girl and she will be 10 on Oct. 1st!
I think I'm going to have a nervous breakdown. I just realized that I am going to have a kid in double digits and my baby is going to kindergarten all in just a couple of weeks!When did that happen?

She loves it and I had a hard time taking it off her so "it wouldn't be dirty when we see Minnie".
Things I "learnt"...
1. The dots wont turn pink
2. Applique is easy if you secure the applique to your top. Not by pinning.![]()
3. Rick Rack will hide a somewhat imperfect seam.![]()
4. We need yellow, black, or red CROCs. and her Hair bows for this outfit need to be BIGger and contain black (a mickey head in the center?) Somehow there needs to be an accent of yellow? In the hair bow? A button? A bow on the minnie? ((edited to add- I DID put a little yellow bow on top of the applique to the left a little...cuuuute!)
5. I love this pattern.
6. I'm wayyyyy more confident
Hi everyone,
I have been doing some sewing today. I have to make a Spongebob, and a Bratz outfit for my professor's grand-daughters. This is the Bratz, it's done except for the bling I'm going to add to the top, just a few sparklies here and there.

enjoy!!
That was my official first Disney custom outfit I made. I made shorts for my DS5 and appliqued a mickey head out of the fabric on a matching shirt. Also my first applique. Didn;t think I could manage a surf board, but I thought about it. Maybe you could find a Mickey (with a swimsuit) scrapbook applique. Thought I saw that one time. I found that just using the fabric was enough Mickey.

Mine are removeable, so I don't have to worry about that, and they can go with any outfit! PM me if you want the ebay seller.
Someone named Amy of course made this. I got it from the Disigns board. She has a whole website of great stuff. M_I_C_K_E_Y is her name and she even takes requests.
She did this disign in Mom, big sis and lil sis. I am going to bling out pj's for us!

Help!!! I did my first applique mickey head last night. I appliqued on to a cotton (like 5% spandex) t-shirt and had some problems with puckering. I don't know what I did wrong! Any suggestions? I need to find the charger for my camera so I can post a pic.

OOOH, sorry it's so big.
Here are pics of outfits I bought from ebay and my very first sewing project.
I haven't posted much on here even though I'm addicted to this thread because well, I have no sewing machine! But I've been reading and keeping ideas for when I take the plunge and get a machine. Anyway, until then I'm buying my customs for our WDW trip (only 4 more weeks). I wanted to share pictures of my girls in two outfits I've recently bought thanks to 2 very talented ladies on here. If you want info on who made them, feel free to PM me.
I just got back in from taking an Applique Class!!! I no longer fear the applique or the different stitches on my machine!!! They even tought me how to use my ruffler foot!!! YEA!!!![]()

Your kids (and of course the skirts) are adorable! Great job Obsessedwiththemouse! Beautiful appliques!

Does anyone do bling tees? You know, with crystals? Does anyone have a source to purchase in bulk for less expensive than you can buy at Michael's? Thanks!
OK here is a dress I am working on..it is supposed to be a halter style that ties behind the neck..well my DD hates that!! And she fussed & fussed about it..so thankfully the straps are long enough so I can attach them to the back..I am thinking of putting snaps on them. (It is just pinned in the pic) It might look a little funky so I was thinking of adding a bow to the back, right in the center lol.
Anyway, this dress is pretty simple..I'm not sure if I should just let it be, or add a ruffle to the hem...or cut it & make it a top & add cute ruffle pants *sigh* LOL Anyway I though the fabric was perfect for the storybook dinner at Akershus.
Anyway a couple of questions if it's ok. First do any of you make matching outfits for yourselfs? <snip> I really enjoy this thread. Oh one more question. How do you guys keep track of were you are on here.
Until I finally saw Utahmomma say she had a son named Riley I was starting to worry that I was the only one with a human kid named Riley!
Oh no! They are showing up on my computer. Can anybody see them? I spent forever trying to get them to work and I thought that I had figured it out. Boo hoo!

Thanks so much for sharing your directions! I have a question, if you open the inseam, is this where you stop "patching?"--just before the inseam? The patches wrap around the outside of the legs, right? So the bottom of the jeans are left unfinished--to fray? Am I grasping it? I'd like to try this for Chrismas. Your daughter (and of course outfit) is beautiful!
They look sooo cute! Great work ladies!I wanted to share pictures of my girls in two outfits I've recently bought thanks to 2 very talented ladies on here.
Minnie Twirl skirts. I bought black shirts and I'm going to decorate it with rhinestones in the shape of Minnie.
