Packed & Moved..Disboutiquers Part 6 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes we sew

[Tinka_Belle]

That is just too cute and don't feel bad about making a size larger than what is needed. I have been doing that since Jenna was born.

I am back from the baby shower and the outfits that I made were a huge hit. Everyone there loved the things that I made and they were passed around to everyone at the party. Even the mommy to be liked them . I really am shocked, because later she told me that she wouldn't wear anything that her mother made for her.

WOO HOO! Guess what I'm doing? I'm on the phone reserving our next trip! September 19-28!

Yes, it is sooner than we thought, but we couldn't stand it any longer! We're trying to get in on free dining, too! Let the sewing begin!

BTW - Another option are the markers made specifically for clothes - such as to mark clothes for camp. I've never used one and don't know if they come in many colors but at least those are made to hold up to laundering.

I bought those fabric markers and they do come in a variety of colors and do not run when you wash. They are pretty cool!

Please excuse the dribble - it doesn't last forever does it???

Thanks for looking - Clare XX

That is so cute! A little too big is much better than a little too small!

I am about the dribble. Some babies are more leaky than others. Soon those teeth will come in!

You ladies are such an inspiration I have finally decided to start sewing for my best friends little girl. (I have 3 boys) My question is this " I am attaching a ruffle to the bottom of a dress and wonder if I should top stitch it after sewing it on. If so should the top stitch be above on the dress with everything ironed up or ironed down and have it below on the ruffle.

You do not have to trop stitch but most patterns recommend to iron up away from the ruffle. I usually top stitch so everything looks neat and tidy.

I am so happy for you that everyone liked the baby stuff! That is great!

Hi everyone! I really don't know where this week has gone - I've not had anything different on to normal but I just don't seem to have 5 minutes to myself. Anyway, I've just had a quick skim through everything and there are some beautiful outfits posts, as normal.

I have however had the time to finish one outfit - good job as I've been at it for weeks!! I cut out all the pieces and when I came to add on the contrasting colour it was no where near as big as the piece I was joining it too, so I abandoned it for a while. I was convinced I'd done the pleats horribly wrong but after going through everything again, it looked OK so I just recut the colour to fit. I'm pretty sure the pattern was wrong as the top doesn't look wrong (to me anyhow)

One day I will make something that fits I promise!!! I'm too tight to make a 1/2 and it only last a short while so Hope's having to wear a huge 1 for a while longer!!

Please excuse the dribble - it doesn't last forever does it???

Oh, so cute! I love these colors on her! I still make everything big, and my kids don't grow THAT fast anymore!

I iron the seam up and topstitch just above the ruffle... I like how it makes the ruffle lie nice and flat.

Hi Friends!!

Are you all having a nice weekend???

Well, we participated in our communiy yard sale and made $173 - we were pretty happy - the money is going right towards our tickets to MT for Camp Promise. Tickets were sooooo expensive this year!!!

Question for ya - billy and I will be celebrating our 15th anniversary this October. We would like to plan a nice trip, but arent sure what to do - I was thinking Hawaii or a disney cruise or some carribean island - so at dinner tonight I asked him about it - guess what he said - "i was thinking we could rent a camper and travel around" - uhhhhh - dont get me wrong, usually I would think that is really fun - but, this is a special anniversary!!! What is he thinking???? or isnt he???

Also, I made a huge mistake cutting some fabric - I was cutting out one of the round neck tops the other night, and I folded the fabric the wrong way to cut the angle!!! UUUUUHHHHHHGGGGGGG - it was only a reminant piece with just enough fabric - now its too small to make an outfit out of - so now i need to find watermelon fabric!! has anyone seen some?

Joann's is supposed to be having a big sale tomorrow - the red dot fabric is 50% off - i LOVE that!!

Wal-Mart sells Watermellon fabric. That's where I got mine from.

Tink - thanks - I'll have to take a peek!!!!

FYI, I saw new HSM fabric at Wal-Mart tonight. One at the words on it, and the other one was pictures of all the characters faces. It was pretty cute!

I LOVE this! The colors are just great on her!!

I finished the top I was making the applique for:

I am still debating on what to do for the pants. So far the two options are black with pawprints made from the spotted material and a red ruffle or spotted pants with black pawprints and a red ruffle. What do ya'll think??

I'm not surprised! Everything was so wonderful!!!

SO cute!!! I think either choice would work for the pants. Can you hold up some fabric and get an idea of which you'd like better?

 

[lovesdumbo]

I finished my bowling shirt. Given the limits of using the fabric my DS picked out I am very happy with the final product. I was a bit scared to make a button down shirt but this one went together perfectly. Now I've got lots of ideas for other variations.

What about one leg of each?



OK! My trip is booked! My meals are booked! We're going to Disney World! Woo Hoo! I did have to sacrifice a few meals that just weren't available (I'm sure because of free dining). However, we did get the biggest things that we wanted. We're booked at 1900 Park Fair, Rose & Crown, 50's Prime Time, O'Hana's, Norway Princess Dinner, Biergarten, Liberty Tree & Cinderella's Royal Table. I also booked Bibbity Boppity Boutique for the morning before Cinderella's Royal table. I'm PSYCHED!

We're back!!
It's a girl!!
On Tuesday June 10th we welcomed little
Adara Hazel Antonina
into the world and our family.
She was 7lbs 3oz and 20 1/4 inches long.
She is precious and perfect and we are settling in at home.
I'll work on getting a photo up. I doubt I'll get caught up on the last 30 pages
