Disboutiquers Part 21 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

[MinnieVanMom]

It has been such a long time since I posted and I just don't feel I will ever be able to catch up with all the cute and wonderful creations posted here.

Our trip to DL was super and we had fun being all matchy matchy. We got comments on our outfits somedays and others not at all. I am sure the Jedi shirts really did help get my kids picked for the training.

We have about 5 more days with DD before she leaves us once again for her summer home in Maine and then onto her home in Florida. Perhaps someday she will be with us permanently.

So off to float the river and play hard while we can.

 

[Diz-Mommy]

And my first Audrey. LOVED this pattern and how finished/professional everything about it is. Also, LOVE Lisa's ruffle method much more than my old method. If only DD loved the skirt as much as I do . By the way, it's much more purpler (LOL) than in the pictures

Thanks for looking
MMM

I LOVE you Tink Audrey!! Very nice work!!

I've been lurking again & quietly loving & envying since we started DS8's 3rd gd homeschooling year.

I have squeezed in a few moments for our trip. I only have 103 days left to sew & many outfits left.

I just finished up a few dresses for 2 little girls going in August. They turned out super cute. Except for the Snow White cape I totally CASEd!

I got the bird applique from bowsandclothes.com. It stitched out really nice! I am loving my new machine!

Thanks!

 

[ncmomof2]

Does anyone have PED Basic? I just got it in the mail. After downloading it, I can't seem to open any fo my files into it. Any advise?

Scratch this! I am a dingbat and figured it out

Thanks! A few others on here have also made the Cindy dress...they turn out so pretty - I like it so much more than her blue dress!

The two in my siggy are some of my fave ever! She got the most compliments on these. You can totally make a couple in 45 days!! The Snow White and the Small World one were very quick and easy. The otehr two took a bit longer though!

I have just over 6 weeks and a TON left to make for my little one. She of course has out grown most of hers from last trip!

I've been in lurker mode lately, but things are moving slow today so I'll add. Here are some crayon bags I made for a Big Give:

I had a work trip last week & took my sewing machine & got all of this done plus an Aurora dress & bag for my mom that I don't have pics of yet, & I got my patterns organized! It's amazing what I can do without my little "helpers" The tink dresses I started over a yr ago & got frustrated with it not looking like I envisioned, so I just never finished. I was determined to get those UFOs done!

The crayon roll ups look great and the little fairies you have are adorable (as are their dresses!).

Got a quick pair of pyjamas done up for a customer last night. I really like this shark camo fabric that I found.

I just may have to pick up some of that fabric for my ds -- I know he'd love a pair of jammies just like those. Great work.

My cousin and her family are headed to Disney next week - I finally finished the Minnie outfit and the Sleeping Beauty top for her daughter. The Minnie skirt if the Tess Twirl from YCMT and the SB top is the Emma swing. The vida has to be simple after Emma - it wasn't hard, just a lot of steps!! Sleeping Beauty was my first hand applique other than Minnie heads. It wasn't hard - thanks to Heather and Leslie's tutorials!! But what kind of pen/pencil do you used to mark the applique lines? I used a quilter's pencil and it didn't come off very well under the hair lines.

I painted the face:

The Minnie outfit skirt is my fabric -- I love the fabric and the euro ruufles (I think that's what their called). I am going to keep that look in mind for a future skirt for my dd.
SB turned out great -- I paint a lot of fine details on my faces as well.

Hey ladies, as always LOVE all the projects you are getting done!!

I've finally finished with most of the projects I had in the works, so I can officially start working on a few things for our September trip. I've never done customs before [this is dd's first trip to disney], I'm not going to do a ton, but I'll start, and see where it goes.

First up is a Nie Nie skirt, hopefully it goes well!!!

Here is what I've recently finished.

A birthday table runner. I used brushed twill for the base, I love how it turned out. Going to make some for other holidays/seasons.

A custom birthday banner. Love how it turned out. I usually make one for holidays, seasons, but hadn't done a birthday one yet! [Can you tell we had a birthday last week!!]

Love those! I imagine both the table runner and banner were time consuming, but they sure look awesome.

I haven't sewn much at all since before our trip in May. This pregnancy was a little more difficult than I had anticipated. My sewing chair just kills my back. So, I am feeling much better this week and decided to go through the "UFO" box (UFO=unfinished objects...lol) I had awful insomnia last night so I got all of these things out of the bin! Some just needed button holes and buttons but a few of the criss cross halters were cut and barely sewn.

There are actually 3 of these because they were for a photo session for my dd, my niece, and my cousin's little girl. (Great grandkids photo for my grandma.) We were supposed to do it earlier but I couldn't fly home until next week so I am just now finishing them.

Yes, I went way overboard with this pattern and the Tutti Frutti clearance at Joann's...lol.

At least I feel a little accomplished and hopefully back on track somewhat until Emily arrives!

Everything looks fabulous -- the criss cross halters look great. I may need to add that pattern to my collection.

Well, 1.5 outfits done....

The Feliz without the overdress....

Beautiful Feliz! And I adore your fabric choices for the skirt.

I finished a couple more outfits this week. First, another Vida for a customer/friend. They are going to Disney in December.
[IMG]http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/tt61/anita4679/My%20creations/th_SDC14197.jpg

and the back (sorry, my picture is kinda wonky)

And I made a "back to school" dress for my DGD that is starting Kindergarten.
I used Nana's Retro Pinafore for the top and a Portrait Peasant for the underdress. I am going to use this pattern for Christmas aprons as well...it was sooooooo easy!!

Thanks for letting me share...
Wow...some of my pictures are really big...SORRY...I may have not resized them before I added them.

Great Christmas Vida (I haven't even started Halloween yet!) and that's an adorable outfit for BTS. My dd still fits in hers from last year and she has a different teacher this year so she'll be wearing it again!

Because I know how phenomenal you ladies are, I have two prayer requests for you this morning... First, please pray for the military families of the C-17 that crashed in Alaska. As an USAF wife, my heart breaks with this - especially with hubby being currently deployed (he may be home as early as next week - yay!!!) Secondly, please pray for my youngest daughter - 18mo Samantha. She banged her head on her headboard last night resulting in a 2.5 inch long, 1.5 inch wide, and 1 inch deep goose egg on her forehead. She also had a "blank stare" for 5-7 minutes after she hit her head (possibly a silent seizure) My choices at the ER were a CT scan or waking her every 1.5-2 hours to check her pupils. With all her past issues (they would have to sedate her for the CT scan not to mention the radiation), I chose choice 2. She seems to be doing alright today, but is extremely fussy (probably has a headache) and is a little woozy. Please pray for us! Thanks!

~ Shannon

Very sad about the jet crash. I hate when something like that happens in association with air shows in particular.

I hope your dd is doing better. When my ds was 2yo he had two concussions within two months of each other. We passed on the CT as well and just did diligent monitoring.

I have squeezed in a few moments for our trip. I only have 103 days left to sew & many outfits leftDD3's AK:

DS8's DHS:

I like the color combo in the AK dress -- a bit different from the usual colors I see. And adore P&F -- I know I need to get a P&F t made for my ds for just plain ol' everyday wear.

I just finished up a few dresses for 2 little girls going in August. They turned out super cute. Except for the Snow White cape I totally CASEd!

I got the bird applique from bowsandclothes.com. It stitched out really nice! I am loving my new machine!

Thanks!

They did turn out super cute! I love the pink Cindy.

 

[kdzbear]

Well, it looks like I am about to get a lot more free time! DIL has just informed me that she and her part of the family are not going to be wearing matching t shirts this trip...while it would have been nice to tell me this BEFORE I started making them...I guess I no longer have to worry about the 90 something T shirts I was making and all the customs I had started!

See, if I let them off the hook, hubby is going to back out as well, then I'm sure my DS will not want to either...ah the domino effect!

(however DIL has given me about 3 quilts she wants me to do ...in the next 3 weeks!)

Maybe it is time to stop being the 'nice' mother in law!

Nini

Nini, I am so sorry! I can't believe that anyone would turn down one of your beautiful outfits! I am adoptable! I think just you and your husband should go looking great and receiving all of the compliments while the others look on in their "street clothes".

I love both outfits, but the Tinkerbell one is gorgeous!

For those that want to try using ribbon instead of buttons - I still make a button hole I just sew the ribbon where the button would be.

This is the front of the cars outfit for Juliet - nothing fancy just a plain Emma Swing top - I made a ruffle to put on the bottom of a denim skort so it was easy peasy!

This outfit is fantastic. You did a great job on it!

DD is currently in a theater camp and all the campers attended a dress rehersal for High School Musical 2 (a production in the works prior to her camp starting -- dd is not a part of the play). So I had to order fabric off and get this whipped up (had to keep it simple due to lack of time).

Crappy thing is the day before the play they requested all campers to wear t-shirts they had supplied so she had to toss a t-shirt on over the dress (it was yellow with purple writing so at least it didn't look horrid, but still ruined my custom IMO).

DD is in her play tomorrow. She plays Snow White's evil stepmother. It's just a one act play so it's an abbreviated story and the only part the stepmother is in is as the old hag selling the apples. I asked dd about her costume and she said the one they had was too big. So I asked if she needed me to make her anything and her reply: "No, they only allow experts to sew." What am I, chopped liver??? Apparently they've come up with a new costume for her.

And Beauty and the Beast is the group's next official production and dd doesn't even want to try out She'd only get an extra part if she made it due to her age, but I thought B&TB would be a great start to her acting career. Instead she decided her career would last two weeks and no longer wants to take any classes.

 

[desparatelydisney]

I really like the feliz and it looks really great without the overdress. May have to try that some day.

Also love the Audrey skirt, so pretty!

Desperately Disney...I love that Feliz...that Cinderella's Coach is beautiful...I'm actually doing that design on my GD BBB dress...all in monotones on a soft blue background...I think that looks so classy!
Nini

Both of those are so great!
How hard was it to do without the overdress? I have that pattern and even have some fabric I want to use but I cant find another I like for the overdress. (or actually the underdress since the over dress is what gets seen and I love this fabric)

I LOVE that Feliz. I am happy to see what it looks like without the overdress too. It turned out really cute. I really like the simple picture of the coach...CLASSY!
[/IMG]

I LOVE you Tink Audrey!! Very nice work!!

I love this dress. It looks so......perfect. The skirt is really cute.

Thanks, everybody. I always feel I have to post my disney creations because you guys were MY inspiration and still are.

The Feliz was super easy with just the underdress except that I don't like the unfinished inside. I should have made a full lining for the entire bodice but I screwed it up and had to cut most of it out. So I just ended up having to roll the top hem too. I LOVED the fabric I had (it's the castles and crowns line) but I had used most of the coordinating fabric on a portrait peasant nightgown. This is what she will wear to our castle breakfast

I still have to make a Tink Emma to go with the Audrey skirt, a Sasha with hawaiian minnie for Ohana dinner, a roundneck with Lilo for Ohana breakfast and a sarfari daisy for Tusker House breakfast. Plus....a jessie tank top, 3 buzz tees, a safari pluto tee and a stitch tee. I am going into a panic attack just typing this

I just finished up a few dresses for
2 little girls going in August. They turned out super cute. Except for the Snow White cape I totally CASEd!

Beautiful! I really want to tackle a Snow White one day.

MMM

 

[mom2OandE]

Wow...I am impressed. Even if they all just had to be finished...that is a lot to get done in a night. And they are all really cute.

Wow! I love the Vida! We are going to MVMCP this year and I have yet to decide what I want to make. It's such a special thing.

The school set is adorable! So classic!

 

[SUZI]

There have been so many beautiful beautiful customs posted since I last posted. All I can say is WOWWIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MMitchell29]

Hello I know none of the ladies on here sell their designs on disboards, so I tried to find a few of you on ebay with no such luck. As i was looking I did run across a few homemade Disney dresses/outfits but they were priced in the 40's and 50 price range. Is that the going price for these cute dresses? Please someone help me understand this. I do not sew and I have a 2yr old that I would like to get about 2 dresses for. We will be in Disney in Oct.

Is the snow white one from the simplicity pattern?? I'd love to know which patterns you used for all of them! Thank you!!
