Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes Part 4

[HeatherSue]

Cute outfit, beautiful girl, cute dog!!

I was afriad to cut anything off till I was done in case I needed them

You're funny!

Very cute! And I love the dog in the photo! It makes me want a dog. My DD loves dogs so much but ours died a year ago.

We lost our 16 year old schnauzer/cocker mix (I liked to call her a schnocker) in January and I still miss her terribly. You do need to get another dog! They can't take your old dog's place, but everyone needs a dog (except my sister ).

Thanks for posting these wonderful pictures throughout your trip! It really makes me long to be there!! Tessa was the same age as Makayla (sp?) the last time we went. Now she's 4 1/2. I REALLY want to go back NOW!!

The tutu is a 2-tone lavender and she was absolutely tickled with it. One thing I learned is that tutu's and carseats don't jive well together. We have a Britax and the strips of tulle got caught in the velcro pieces. It was a small disaster b/c I didn't know it and when I got her out it pulled to one side and stretched the elastic..

I love the tutu and your DD's gorgeous smile! We had the same issues with the Britax. Tessa takes her tutu off to get in the car seat and then puts it back on when we get where we're going.

Cute and cute!!

That's putting it mildly I think. I once asked my Mom how she could be such a wonderful Mom with the role model she had. She told me, "I just always asked myself what my Mom would do, and I did the opposite." Well, let's just say, my Mom is a FANTASTIC Mom, and it that's the opposite of what her Mom was, well, it must have been horrible.

Ahem, my Mom had to eat her pet rabbit too. And, my Dad's Dad (just can't bring myself to call HIM grandpa)cooked his pet goat and fed it to him. It is one of the sadest stories my Dad tells. I'll spare you the details though. Our parents had some awful horrible childhoods. It's truly amazing they turned into such great parents.

It is truly amazing how wonderful our parents turned out, with the childhoods they had. My dad was put into an orphanage for military families when he was a little boy, where they treated him cruelly. His parents eventually took him back in, but he didn't have it much better at home. I think Mom and Dad both did the exact opposite of what their parents would have done. I'm so proud of them both. If I can be 1/2 the mom that our mom is, I'll be satisfied. Yes, I'm crying.

On a lighter note, I actually finished something today! I made Tessa a cute shirt. I'm going to wait until she's home to post a picture and I'd also like to decoupage some jeans to go with it. Is there a tutorial with pictures and such somewhere? I can't find any pictures in the bookmarks.

Here is the bag

sed Butterick 4823. It is a great pattern I will use it again to make a Christmas themed bag.

Faaaaabulous!

 

[princesssfws]

I finished my bag!
I think these photos turned out better than the ones of my DD. I should have taken her picture in the kitchen. I'll post a better picture of both kids in their overalls outside.

Here is the bag

I love making bags. I used Butterick 4823. It is a great pattern I will use it again to make a Christmas themed bag.

LOVE the bag. I especially like the ruffle at the top and the snap closure. Great Job.

Not fabric, but i was looking thru the dis photobucket album, which is very cool.. and noticed the necklaces with the bottlecaps..
Question is, how do you get the hole for the jumpring thru the bottlecap? What tool did you use to punch the hole? I have a Crop-a-Dile.. wonder if that works..

I just used a regular drill with a small drill bit. Just make sure to have the bottlecap secured someway before drilling. I put the bottlecap between my sewing machine and the carrying handle. Probably not the smartest idea but it worked.

Hi!!

Does anyone have any creative ideas for something to make that would be good for Hanna Montana concert? I can copy some ideas but don't have an ounce of creativity!

Thanks for any help!

good question!! a friend of mine is taking her 7yr old daughter and I'd love to make her something to wear

 

[2cutekidz]

Those are GLUED ON? Wow! That's cool! I never realized you could buy appliques like that. Do you think that the intention was that they be wonder-undered on? or hand stitched down? or what?

In the listing I think the seller said to tack it down - glue was easier!

Not Disney, but... DD had her Birthday pictures taken today. She did a great job. These pics. aren't high resolution, but you get the idea.

She had a bunch taken, these are just a few.

Hi Everyone! Sorry that I haven't been posting lately. Everyone's creations have been beautiful. I love all of the Disney photos. I have been really sick and today I finally went out of the house and did some sewing.
Here is a Christmas outfit that I made. Sorry for the inside photos, but it's been raining outside. The other picture is the Raggedy Ann, that I made a while back.

Happy Sewing everyone!! Hopefull I will have more to post tomorrow! I finally put in my first zipper....

 

[CastleCreations]

I can't believe it!!! I've finally been tagged!!!! And not just one, but 2!!!!! I'm so happy!!!!

I can't believe it!!! I've finally been tagged!!!! And not just one, but 2!!!!! I'm so happy!!!!

Very cool! I'm jealous, but then again with some of the odd things I've said on this thread it may be a bad thing for the tag fairy to come around here. All the off topic statements here could get us in a lot of trouble!!

BTW - welcome back!

Hi, i was thinking about this too!! I can't sew, so mine will have to be a no-sew idea... I was thinking of a rhinestone embellished top, mabye with some kind of design in the center.. and i know i am going to do a "G.N.O." on the back, since its me and my dd going..

Here is the tutu that I made for my DD. It's from the tulle that I bought at Hobby Lobby, it cost me about $10 to make.

You can really see the knotting in this pic but it's kind of fuzzy.

The tutu is a 2-tone lavender and she was absolutely tickled with it. One thing I learned is that tutu's and carseats don't jive well together. We have a Britax and the strips of tulle got caught in the velcro pieces. It was a small disaster b/c I didn't know it and when I got her out it pulled to one side and stretched the elastic.

One question for all those that have made these. The elastic seems to keep getting stretched out, does yours? I'm going to loosen the knots and move the pieces around a little bit to keep it looking good.

OH, how adorable!!! She looks so cute in that!!!

We lost our 16 year old schnauzer/cocker mix (I liked to call her a schnocker) in January and I still miss her terribly. You do need to get another dog! They can't take your old dog's place, but everyone needs a dog (except my sister ).

And our brother. I'm a cat person, which I learned the hard way, AFTER we got a dog. I don't really care for dogs.

My dad was put into an orphanage for military families when he was a little boy, where they treated him cruelly. His parents eventually took him back in, but he didn't have it much better at home.

They are truly amazing people!! You know I'm crying!

Pretty pretty girl!!!! Love pettiskirt!

YEAH!!!!!! That is so cool!!!

I finally finished DD's Halloween costume, she will be wearing it to MNSSHP.
She didn't want to take it off today, she absolutely loves it.
I don't have close up pics, but there are pin tucks on the bodice, sleeves near the wrist and along the bottom of the dress. I have never done pin tucks before, and it really wasn't that hard.
I did button closures even though the pattern called for a zipper. Didn't feel like putting a zipper in.

Forgot to say she is Becky Thatcher, which is why she is holding the book Tom Sawyer in the first pic.

Could someone PLEASE lift up the top layer of the tulle skirts so I can see what it looks like where the tulle, underskirt and top layer attach!!???PLEASE!!!!!

You could make a ton of these for Disney trips ! I'd love one myself!!

Wow love the Christmas Outfit! Are those Gingerbread Men appliqued on?
Can you post a close up shot of them?
Sorry you were sick.

Awww those are adorable. Your DD is very photogenic.

Better pic but you can't see the waistband.

Awww she is so sweet!

Wow this is so pretty. I like the fact that you used buttons. Makes it a little more authentic. It is very cute and a great idea. Make sure you post a photo from the big party! I want to go to MNSSHP so bad. Or any of the parties they host. Maybe we will go to the Pirate and Princess in Feb or March if they have it again.

Cute outfit, beautiful girl, cute dog!!


We lost our 16 year old schnauzer/cocker mix (I liked to call her a schnocker) in January and I still miss her terribly. You do need to get another dog! They can't take your old dog's place, but everyone needs a dog (except my sister ).

Thank you for the compliments. We just got that dog after we lost our kitty. She had Kidney failure. I miss her a lot, she would sit next to you on the couch and pat you with her paw when she wanted to be petted.
I had always wanted a Dachshund. She has quite a personality!
It's true you can't replace them but it is nice to have a little puppy to cuddle when you are feeling blue.
Here is a better photo of her, her name is Sophie.

For those of you doing this fringe on the sleeves are you crocheting it or what? I *LOVE* the look of it, and tried to crochet it. BUT, it looked nothing like that
THANKS!

I don't mean to sound dumb but what does actually tagged mean?
