ok,, just saw all the rest of the pirate outfits.....they are all GREAT!!!! decision's.. decisions.... hmmmm I may have to dress my 2yo dd up as a pirate also.. .was going to do a princess but I dont know anymore lol... Now to find something for my son who turns 2 on the trip.
WELL, I've been told that markdown manager doesn't always work the first time & they've had problems with it since they've started it. I had to reschedule it for 7:00 and hope it works at that time. I did tell everybody 5:00 so whoever wants stuff you can go get it now and I'll just change the invoices myself to reflect the 15% discount before I invoice you. I changed the end time to 12:00 on monday as well. That should be enough time for shopping!!! I don't want to see any fighting!!!![]()
Is there a way to tell if the discount is applied? It's just after 7pm and I really want to shop!!
Here's a few pictures of a pirate's set I did awhile back...
My DD7 loves Jack and I just found pink skull and crossbones fabric at Joann's. Not sure what I'll make yet, but will definitely use it!They have the skulls & roses at joanns but are sold out of the map print. At least here anyways. I used the skulls & roses last year for several pirate costumes I made. Some people thought it was a bit harsh for little ones but I liked it (dark sense of humor) and it would be perfect for an 8 yr old!

Have you done anything with this fabric yet? I purchased some as well and was looking for ideas. You are so creative, so I thought I'd try you first.For those of you who sew, the silver fabric that I bought was actually made for an ironing board cover. It's the perfect color silver. I can't wait to use it.
Where did you get that bluish purple fabric? I am looking for something to make my DD7 for Easter Sunday at Disney and that would be perfect. Love the style of dress too. Did you make that?I've been following the conversation about older kids wearing boutique clothes and honestly think that it depends on your child. My older kids love to wear boutique style outfits. And I ended up making them all matching outfits because it's easier for me to spot them in the park. Here are a few outfits I have almost finished and already finished to give you a few ideas for the older kids. The outfits don't contain nearly as many ruffles as I would use if it were for just my youngest daughter.
The first outfit has colored velcro and the leg ruffles can be exchanged for flowers or other decorations to match other shirts. The shirt shown just has an iron on ariel on it.

The second outfit has a giraffe print mickey on the shirt and the back pocket of the jeans.

These dresses have matching purses made from material scraps.

We went very casual last time except for the character meals, this time they asked if they could get a little more dressed up so we made outfits for each of the parks. (And if you are wondering about using white in the parks, I have treated the back of the pants with fabric protector.)![]()
Hi, I was actually going to use this as the Epcot Ball. As, I'm hanging my head in shame...I haven't made it yet...LOL, I was going to cut it into a circle and sew with black criss-crosses over it so it looks like the epcot ball, and applique in the epcot font, the word Epcot across the ball. My girls never have a special outfit to wear there and I was hoping to make this for them. Well, I still have 2 months left...before we leave...LOLHave you done anything with this fabric yet?

So we just got some photos done. THis is my Oldest's outfit for the day at the animal kingdom! She is getting to disney anyway she can!!!!

Ok, we've been away at Disney for the past 2 days, so I'm a little behind in this thread, so don't know if it's been discussed. But, I did buy some either deep blue or dark purple (can't remember now) fabric at Hancocks about a month ago that had Mickey Halloween on it. I got it for only about $2/yard. I'm hoping to make some Halloween dresses for the girls out of it.We saw this really cute Mickey themed Halloween fabric at JoAnn's the other day. Deep blue background with the characters dressed up and pumpkins all over. I did a search on their website and could not find it- sorry. Wish I'd had it last year!
I have been dying to make one as well. The ones that I see online are a little too expensive for me, but I saw one that was made out of 30 yards of chiffon. Unless the seller gets the chiffon for like 10 cents a yard, I don't see where they would be making a profit. I think one day I will try one...
