Disboutiquers Part 7 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

I've been in a funk the last couple of days - we've had the wettest summer in a while and I suffer from seasonal affective disorder, so not only do the winters suck, but this summer has been awful too.
So I went out with the kids today, I really felt awful not bringing them to the playground, but I need to have my eyebrows done. (FYI I have them threaded) So I went to a grocery store that I don't have in my town (Longo's for you GTA'ers out there) and I found the dark chocolate peanut butter that you have all been raving about! I didn't think that I would find it in Canada - and DING-DONG that stuff is good. :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: Not completely mood altering, but five-dancing-banana good!
I have a fun-filled day with the in-laws tomorrow (there is sarcasm dripping from every word there), and I think that DH maybe feels guilty that we have to go up there, so I may be able to head over to the USA for some fabric shopping on Sunday. (My friends all say that I win the cr@ppy in-laws prize)
OK rant over. I will now eat a spoonful of heaven . . .

Seriously, Longos has it?!? I will have to check it out tomorrow when I go on my fabric run!

Elise, sweetie.......

I am worried about you;)
 
doh - I must of taken too long with all my multiquotes as they have disappeared on me :headache:

Teresa - YAY for the kitty coming back. That is fantastic news :)

I love all the Europe photos and I love the pillowcase autograph pics. What a fun idea :) might just have to add that to my idea folder :rolleyes1

To the person who made the PETTI - well done :) you done a brilliant job. I really want to make one but I'm too scared :eek:


It's funny hearing you guys say "fannypacks" as it obviously means something different there than it does here hehe :rotfl2:

Thank you all for the kind words about my knitting. I do love to knit and as we are in winter here (and today in the middle of a big storm - aparantly the worse in a decade) I like to snuggle up in bed with my knitting.

I feel lost without my laptop. I keep missing stuff. Hopefully I'll get one soon (maybe I can hint for DH to get one for my birthday next week :idea: )

anyway my goal for this week is to be able to check in on the disboutique thread once a day so I can keep in touch :) I'm back in planning mode for our trip again :) yayayayayayay
 
HI ,

I think a while ago someone had posted some jeans that they had maybe cut off under the knee and then sewn a stripwork pant leg onto? Im thinking of doing this for eliz, but would love to see it again (cant find it in our photobucket acct) and know to measure for it....thanks!!

These were super easy to make:

1) I cut off the jeans and measured around.

2) I made a-shaped strips with the bottom two inches wider than the top. I took the measurement around the jeans and divided by the number of strips I wanted and added an inch for a half inch seam allowance.

3) I added a ruffle on the bottom and at the seam and ric rac.
 
Here are my outfits for the day. I used a pattern for this one. It was touch and go at times on the shirt but it turned out ok. I am going to add a ruffle to the shirt though.

This one turned out ok but I would make it longer next time and do the straps different

I love all the pictures of Europe! I am so jealous. Canada is the only country I have been in outside the US :( Someday...
 
I am in the market for an emboirdery machine but don't know a whole lot about them. i am looking for suggestions on a good machine at a reasonable price. I do want to be able to purchase designs form like ebay. Are all machines able to support those files or is it certain ones? Please ladies, all advice is welcome aqnd appreciated!
 
1.)Like Tessa and I said "The cat came back the very next day. Yeah, the cat came back. We thought he was a goner. But, the cat came back the very next daaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy!" :banana: :banana: :banana:
2.):rotfl: about Grandma! Yes, she's doing great, but she won't admit it!

3.)I can't believe her myspace page is STILL there! I wonder if she hoodwinked them into thinking she had erased it! It makes me sick to think those pictures are still out there for the world to see!
1.):rotfl2: That's what we've been singing too!
2.)Poor Grandma, having such grand daughters as us!
3.):confused3 I don't get it.

Good news! The arm is not broken. :cool1: But the doctor said that there is a lot of swelling on his elbow and that Monday we will be doing another x-ray after a weekend of motrin and ice packs. So, Monday we will go back again.
YEAH!!!! I hope the motrin takes away the pain and swelling for him.

Thanks Teresa, definitely!!! I already wanna go back!!! LOL

How awesome is that....I started singing the same song your sister did..."the cat came back....the very next day"...hahahahah!!!
A fall trip would be gorgeous!
That is so cute!! I love the color combination.

I have a cousin that is doing the same thing with her MySpace page and my neice is the one helping her set it up. They are both only 13!!
:
What are the parents of these kids thinking??? THIRTEEN!!! That's still a baby!

Theresa-I have no idea what my aunt and sister are thinking. I couldn't imagine allowing my child to "advertise" herself.

It's a scary world, parents need to be cautious! Hopefully they will all come to their senses soon!!!

Does any one know a current YCMT coupon? How do you get those coupon codes?

I don't believe there is one out right now - there was one just recently. If you sign up for the newsletter, they will occasionally send you coupon codes.

Hi ladies. I know this is off topic but I also know that there are some dieting ladies on here. I don't know if you subscribe to Hungry Girl but there were some fun sundae ideas on there today. Here you go:

Gimme S'more Sundae

PER SERVING (entire sundae): 175 calories, 2g fat, 109mg sodium, 38.5g carbs, 4g fiber, 24g sugars, 3.5g protein -- POINTS® value 3*

S'mores and ice cream?!? Prepare yourself for chocolatey graham-tastic marshmallow mania!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup Breyers Double Churn Free French Chocolate fat-free ice cream
2 tbsp. Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme (only 1 tbsp. will actually end up on your sundae), room temperature
2 low-fat honey graham crackers (half a sheet), lightly crushed
1 tsp. min i semi-sweet chocolate chips
4 tbsp. Fat Free Reddi-wip

Directions:
Place ice cream in a dessert bowl. Set aside. Carefully place marshmallow creme into one of the bottom corners of a Ziploc baggie. Use scissors to snip a tiny hole from the outside end of that corner, and squeeze 1 tbsp. of the creme (the rest will stick to the bag!) over your ice cream in a drizzle. Then top with the graham cracker pieces and chocolate chips. Finish it all off with a generous squirt of the Reddi-wip. Enjoy!

MAKES 1 SERVING

HG Tip! If your marshmallow creme is less-than-fresh or fridge temperature, warm creme in the microwave for about 10 - 15 seconds (just long enough to soften it).





Pumpkin Pie Sundae

PER SERVING (entire sundae): 136 calories, 1g fat, 98mg sodium, 30g carbs, 3.5g fiber, 16.5g sugars, 3.5g protein -- POINTS® value 2*

1 tbsp. canned pure pumpkin
1/8 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
2 low-fat honey graham crackers (half a sheet), lightly crushed
4 tbsp. Fat Free Reddi-wip

Directions:
Place ice cream in a small dessert bowl, and allow it to thaw just slightly (a few minutes). Then stir in the pump kin and pumpkin pie spice until thoroughly mixed. Place bowl in the freezer for 30 minutes to allow the ice cream to firm up. Then top with the Redd-wip, followed by the crushed graham crackers. Enjoy!

That looks yummy! Thanks for sharing and looks really easy to make too!
 
That's funny. Their birthdays are one day apart and their names are one letter apart. Great minds think alike!! :laughing:
YUP! So happy Bday Kyler!

I am in Cumming. We might need to plan an Atlanta area mini Disboutiquers meeting!!
Don't do it with out me! I so need to go back home to visit my parents. They were just here bu tI miss GA so much! I lived in Grayson.Gwinnett County

I've been in a funk the last couple of days - we've had the wettest summer in a while and I suffer from seasonal affective disorder, so not only do the winters suck, but this summer has been awful too.

I have sad too. That is one of the reasons we need to move back down south. Winters are miserable for me. I think that is part of the reason why DH bought the DVC.
Oh on the in law things we have to trade stories some day I have a few dooses! There is a reason we live 1000 miles away from them:scared1:

Adorable!

Moonk's Mom, YEAH it isn't broken! I am so glad. Hopefully it will get better with some ice and motrin.

Teresa, OMG that is so scary!!!! stuff like that scares the daylights out of me! The kids have their own computer but it is in the play room where I can see it at all times when they are on it. George is also a computer guy so he has all kinds of locks on it but I am sure when the kids get a older they will be able to break them. I hope the situation resolves itself. Hang in there!

I own a Singer Futura (150) and I really enjoy it. I paid $519. It has a 5x7 field, and has a usb connection which allows you to use designs that have been downloaded. It does have to be connected to your computer while operating, but that isn't a big deal to me since I run it off of my laptop.
 
I updated my Trip Report!!! It's the day we meet Chantell!!!!

Yeah, that's me! I was just about to go read it, but Heidi wants something to eat and Aleah wants to play a game. Hmm...don't they know I have important reading to do?!?! :confused: I guess I'll have to read it later.
 

You did awesome! Both are cute, but that Pooh is especially darling. Great job!

YES = those are the ones, thank you soooooo much!!!!

You're welcome. It was very easy.

Poor Grandma, having such grand daughters as us!

Hey, I'm glad your Grandma is doing better! And your cat came back. What a great week for you!

I will have to get Jacob to e-mail Arminda for the latest installment of Foxie's adventures. I hope the two cats are getting along.

All three of us did a music camp this week where the kids learned a Christian musical and performed it last night. They didn't have speaking parts but they both had solos and they were so cute! I did crafts with the kids.
