Sorry for being such a slacker, it's been a loooooong time since my last post but hope to make it up with this post filled with adorable cuteness!!! I love holidays, especially the ones that involve costumes! When my daughter was born about 3 years ago I took on sewing so that I can make "itty, bitty, cute" outfits for her. I loved the "idea" of being able to create her costumes, even though I had no clue how to go about doing it. And so the parade of Halloween costumes began.
4 months old "Cute lil Pirate" :: this was inspired from a stripe onesie she already had and so I took an old tank top I had and repurposed it into a little pirate skirt for her and then took the bits and pieces to make a tiny little vest to go with the outfit. Finished it with a red sash, grocery bought hat and patented flats.
1 year old "Sweet Strawberry" :: Still a novice sewist, I tried to do a more daring costume that would involve actual buying and cutting of materials. This strawberry costume was a wonderful beginner's costume since it was an easy pattern to sew.
2 years old & one more baby boy "The Tortoise & the Hare" :: And the plot thickens, now with two babies, I had to come up with duo themed costumes!!! It's so much fun, too bad Halloween is only one time a year.
I would love to share patterns but honestly I had absolutely no idea what I was doing and pretty much improvised from beginning to end. I truly believe it was the hand of God that guided me! If you would like help or the pattern, please drop me an email and I will try to help you the best I can. Happy Halloween!!!!
