Stitches
Luisa's birthday was coming soon. Mirabel needed something special for her.
Maybe Luisa didn't need a skirt decorated by her, but Mirabel wanted to make it anyway
Mirabel squeezed the dark blue fabric in her hand. Luisa's birthday was coming in a few months, and the idea of embroidering the skirt for her got to Mirabel pretty suddenly. She started to get interested in embroidery a couple of years ago and has made some significant progress since then. It was a good way to express herself, some way to outstand. Even if it meant nothing, compared to the wonderful gifts... It was a way to express herself, and it worked for Mirabel.
Part of her was worried, Luisa had her gift, unlike Mirabel; she didn't need any outstanding handmade patterns; after all, she had a lot of clothes that showed her strength already and were made by professionals. Mirabel was just a little girl; there was no way she could make something even close to that. Would Luisa even care about this skirt? Or at least keep it? Surely Mirabel couldn't move the mountains and make something incredible, but the determination in her veins pushed her forward.
Making design wasn't that hard, after all, Luisa preferred simple clothes that could survive a long working day. There was no way Luisa needed her entire skirt painted like Mirabel; the embroidery would probably end up unraveled. Mirabel often had to hem her own fancywork, even without all the manual labor Luisa did. So there was no way Mirabel's work would be steady enough to windstand such a busy schedule. The best way she could imagine was to decorate the skirt hem, a part that won't actually be touched by anything. Of course, it had bigger chance to get dirty. But again, Mirabel didn't actually expect Luisa to wear it even once. There were a lot more people who were professionals, unlike Mirabel.
Dumbbells were an obvious choice. Madrigals' clothes had to display their gifts, and Mirabel once sewn a dumbell on her own skirt to show Luisa like she did with other family members. But she didn't feel that it was enough. Luisa had a lot of skirts with those. Even if there was no way the older girl would ever touch, let alone wear it, Mirabel still wanted to give it her all and make something unusual. 
She spent hours in the library, trying to find anything that would go well with her idea, until a photo showing off some traditional patterns appeared in front of her eyes. A line of geometric shapes
"It may work." She muttered to herself, studying the colorful images and how it was supposed to look. Another week was spent making the perfect pattern, for that matter.
"Maybe like this...?" Mirabel whispered, looking at the paper in which she had drawn yet another design. "Ugh... No, it doesn't match well..." She grabbed the eraser, rubbing away the weak pencil mark. "Fix there a bit... Now move it a little right..." Her palms got grubby from sweat. "Yes, that's better... Just a little bit smaller..." She finally looked at the best idea she could get. Mirabel clapped her hands in excitement.
With that, Mirabel was ready to start her work. The first step was to dye the fabric, making the allocated part a lighter shade of blue, which was also the hardest part. Mirabel might have some silly experience in embroidery, but she never painted actual clothes before. But again, her family deserved the best. So any attempt is worth it. It took several attempts and almost five days to finally understand what exactly she had to do. At least now the color looked clear, not brighter or darker in any place, and smooth without sliding to the side. 
Mirabel examined her work very thoroughly, making sure there weren't the slightest deviations. She would look like such an awful sister if she gave her sister some lazy, sloppy garbage. Of course, it wasn't Isabela, so she would probably still react politely, at least in front of Mirabel. But it didn't give her the right to make something bad as a gift. 
Now it was time to actually get to the embroidery. Luckily, it wasn't such a problem, even if Mirabel wasn't used to make small patterns at all. Dumbbells were easy to make; the geometric shapes hovewer.... They were so small. And bad sight definitely didn't help. Even with her glasses, Mirabel just wasn't used to focus on such tiny details. She wasn't going to stop; this skirt had to be done.
She finished by sewing ribbons in, visually separating the needlework. And with it, almost a month of work was done. Part of Mirabel wanted to rip it apart, feeling like this thing looked awful, and alter her needlework for like the thirtieth time. She stopped herself because there wasn't really enough time to do that. 
Yet, Mirabel hoped that Luisa would at least count this present as something normal. Not good; Mira couldn't even wish for it—just something not too bad, deserving to at least lie in the closet. 
***
Luisa's eyes widened as Mirabel handed her a skirt unsurely. The younger girl looked down, avoiding her sister's gaze. She was worried; it was the first time she made an embroidery for anyone except herself.
"You made it... yourself?" A hint of disbelief appeared in Luisa's voice. Tears of happiness appeared in her eyes as Mirabel nodded. 
A second later, Mirabel found herself being grabbed from the ground and squeezed into a suffocating hug. Maybe Luisa didn't think about this gift that badly after all. She chuckled, feeling her body being held in the air like a stuffed toy. 
"I love it!" Luisa mumbled, sounding like an excited puppy, despite the fact that she didn't even have a chance to see it properly. Mirabel could never explain how happy this response made her. "Thank you so much!"
"Really?" A relieved smile spread across Mira's face. Maybe making this wasn't such a stupid idea after all. And a little, naive part of Mirabel just hoped that Luisa might wear it at least once.

Post movie Luisa being the girly girl she always wanted to be! Maybe Alma bonding with her seeing how much Luisa likes delicate clothes and getting her a dress made that looks like Isabela’s original dress?
Tumblr media
Luisa had a shy smile on her face as she arrived at breakfast. She was wearing a brand new dress: it was lilac with faint pink along the ruffled hems of the skirt and a pink ribboned collar. The dress was embroidered with dumbbells in pastel shades of pink and blue. Her hair was worn loose with a purple ribbon keeping it off her face.
Isabela and Mirabel high-fived, immediately telling Alma this was their doing.
"Oh, Luisita!" Julieta immediately ran to her daughter and pulled her into a hug. "You look stunning, mi amor. When did you get that?"
"Just yesterday," Luisa said shyly, smiling at her sisters. Mirabel gave her two thumbs up. With a snap of Isabela's fingers, daisies appeared in Luisa's hair.
"You look beautiful," Alma told her. "That dress suits you wonderfully."
It truly did. Goodness, if Alma was a few decades younger she'd proudly wear that herself! Luisa looked beautiful and her happiness only enhanced it. (It was the type of statement to make Camilo roll his eyes, but it was true nonetheless.)
"Perhaps we could go shopping together?" Alma suggested, feeling rather shy herself. "We could find you some more dresses like that."
"Really?" Luisa's smile widened. Julieta smiled at Alma, nodding slightly in approval.
"Really," Alma said, reaching out to hold Luisa's face gently in her hands. "It would be a shame to only wear such a dress once."

Encanto Characters’ Birthdays and Their Significance
Isabela Madrigal was born on August 7, the day of the battle of Boyaca and the month during which the Festival of Flowers is celebrated. 
Dolores’ birthday is August 31, coinciding with the International Day for People of African descent as well as Saint Raymond Nonnatus’ Feast Day, said Saint also being the patron saint of confidentiality. 
Mirabel’s birthday is March 6, the same as Gabriel Garcia Marquez, as an homage to him due to his works being the Encanto staff’s inspiration for magical realism. 
Luisa’s birthday is November 14, also known as the Civic Day of the Colombian Woman, which itself is set on the date of the execution of Colombian war heroine and spy Policarpa Salavarrieta. 
Camilo was born on December 28, which is also Holy Innocents Day, the Colombian equivalent of April Fool’s Day. 
Julieta, Pepa, and Bruno are born on October 17, tragically, coinciding with the date of the start of the Thousand Days’ War. 
Agustin was born on June 19, which is Fathers’ Day in Colombia. 
Felix’s birthday is November 11, which is also Cartagena’s Independence Day. 
And finally, little Antonio was born on May 21, which falls on the same date as Afro-Colombian Day. 
Alma’s birthday is currently unknown. 
I hope you found this information as interesting and as fascinating as I did! The source is the Disney fandom on the wiki as well as Jared Bush on Twitter. It’s amazing how their birthdays all fall on significant dates while still being in the right order!

Félix Madrigal headcanons because it was his birthday recently
Félix Madrigal, random headcanons
!english isn’t my first language, so there can be some grammar mistakes that I am sorry for in advance!  
MASTERLIST
Tumblr media
sings in the shower
knows how to play tennis
knows how to tap dance
used to use the “here comes the airplane” feeding method when his kids were just toddlers
biggest girl dad
used to do Dolores’ hair all the time when she was little, she still sometimes lets him do it
probably the only person who was never fooled by Camilo’s shapeshifting powers
biggest romantic and gentleman
doesn’t like corn
loves when Pepa kisses him on the forehead, loves the height difference in general and never fails to show Pepa that
became very protective when Dolores started going out with Mariano
has a lot of hats and sombreros as he wore them almost everyday when he was younger
the red neckerchief Antonio wears used to belong to Félix
whenever he’s proud of his children he pats them on the shoulder and says “that’s my boy/girl” and walks away, it’s a small gestures but Dolores, Camilo and Antonio know it means a lot
he’s not the type of parent to break his kids up when they’re fighting, he stands on the side and watches because he finds their bickering amusing
has a very warm laugh
makes the bed very carefully, won’t let there be a single wrinkle on the sheets
when he sweeps, he dances with the broom
used to work as a shoeshiner in his teens
speaks with his mouth full
wasn’t nervous when meeting Alma for the first time, she actually became very fond of him very fast
gives the best hugs
whenever something exciting happens to Mirabel, tío Félix would be the first person she’d tell
these two are actually quite close as Mirabel would spend a lot of time with her dad and tío when she was younger, they were comforting her a lot after she didn’t get a gift
him and Isabela usually get into debates on various topics at dinners, when that happens the rest of the family just listens to them
MASTERLIST
happy birthday Félix! <3

for luisa's birthday (happy birthday to her!) maybe julieta or agustín comforting her while she cries or something? it can be for any reason! thank you :)
Tumblr media
Luisa didn't cry. Luisa was stoic and perpetually calm, always taking whatever came her way with a steadfastness most people (let alone teenagers) could only dream of.
At least, that was what everyone thought.
Ever since Casita fell (even just before it fell) the family were starting to realise that, yes, Luisa cried. Quite frequently in fact.
And there was nothing wrong with that.
"S-sorry," Luisa stammered, wiping her eyes. Julieta handed her a tissue. Agustín was still tightly hugging her, rubbing her back.
"You have nothing to apologise for," Julieta told her firmly. "Nothing at all, amor."
"You've been through a lot," Agustín said. "It's gonna take some adjusting."
"I just feel so silly," Luisa said, shame-faced, as her tears continued to fall.
"Well, we don't think you're silly at all," Julieta said. "We think you're very brave."

Pancita Poem
Today, 10/25, is @empty-cryptid​‘s and my birthday! (We just happen to share the same one. 😄) So we decided to collaborate on a poem celebrating Bruno’s belly and the history of the pancita lore in the Encanto fandom. We hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed writing it! 💚
...
It started out a great mystery; Just go through the fandom's history! A conundrum placed above the rest: Dare we hope to complete the quest?
What the fandom wanted found: Is Bruno's middle cute and round? Or could it perhaps be utterly flat? (Or worse… oh no– A six-pack?)
Oh, what does that ruana hide? When he twirls, stops and looks aside. On the last note, letting out a final sigh; His tummy relaxes and a smile comes by.
Collecting evidence, we looked for more; An animation video added to the lore. The belly on Bruno’s model stuck out. We must be onto something, no doubt!
Tumblr began buzzing, AO3 followed suit; With a movement quickly taking root. Despite Bruno’s belly still being a query; For plenty of us, it was beyond just a theory.
So on Twitter, too, we rose to the task. About the mystery “tío gut” we did ask. Oh, Jared Bush, could you help us please? Only you can set our restless minds at ease.
Well, we never got an answer from JB. (His true opinion remains in secrecy.) No matter, the fandom continues to cry: “Viva la pancita de Bruno!” to the sky!
Art, fics, headcanons, spread widely ‘round! How fun is the pancita party we’ve found! Everyone’s welcome, and the family grew, (Just like Bruno’s belly when it’s full of stew.)
People shout, “Bruno needs to be healthy!” Writers, artists, and more create content proudly. “Quick, make it true,” everybody proclaims. The fandom gives his tummy some fame.
Sopancita? Yes, it is true indeed! That figurine we all in the fandom just need, With a soup bowl in hand, going way too deep. In his stomach it sits, nice and warm, he will keep.
The new doll, as well, uncovers a tidbit. A belly’s revealed just to prove it. Now which clothes fit best on this Tío Bruno? The fandom will definitely make some, you know!
A Bruno pillow for little Antonio’s head to rest. That belly’s always full of Juli’s cooking—the best! Luisa needn’t worry ‘cause he’s got safety padding. The Madrigals’ support for the tío tum is everything!
It's too tempting to squish his cheeks, Or poke his belly so he squeaks. His form has filled out rather well, There’s more to hug, you can really tell.
It’s all in fun, just hug the tum! Only free him when you’re done. Give him a squeeze without apprehension, This cuddly tío loves the affection.
