Halloween!

My sweet 3 yr old chose to be a ballerina, when I asked what kind of ballerina she wanted to be I expected her to say pink, or blue or sparkly. 

She looked thoughtful for a moment and then said "A Cinderella ballerina."She loved the dress we made. She picked out fabrics and checked on the progress all along the way.

I only made the over shirt for my 11 yr old. She loves Pokemon and had another costume in mind but wasn't in love with the idea. When she settled on Ash, she loved her choice.

My 14 yr old LOVES Once Upon A Time. 

She chose Belle as her costume and it fits her personality very well.

If you want to keep up on what I'm working on every day check me out on Facebook.

Halloween for Jack-Jack

I decided Jack-Jack is going to Halloween as a My Little Pony. They were a favorite of mine when I was little and my girls love them now. I chose one of the newer characters, Twilight Sparkle.

Now that all my girls are taken care of it's back to work big time!

Halloween Costumes

I don't get too many requests for Halloween costumes, my prices aren't wear it once friendly and that's ok. I do get requests from my kids and one niece every year, it's usually fun what they throw at me to make. My niece found a picture online she loved and I made my own version of Wonder Woman.

My 11yr old graciously tried it on, she's not quite the same size as her cousin but she's close enough.

My 8 yr old discovered Sailor Moon, and chose Sailor Uranus as her costume.

We're going to go boot and glove shopping this weekend to complete her look!

I ended up with a cancellation this week which gave me time to make these. I'm also planning on finishing my other projects in the works early too!

A work in progress

My girls have a lot of faith in my sewing skills, a LOT. My 11 yr old picked out this outfit from a cartoon and requested it. It's Bloom from Winx in her Sirenex/Harmonix outfit.

 

Here's what we have so far.

We're getting fishnet tights from the Halloween store once it opens and I will be sewing ribbons to them for the leg portion of the costume. She has a pair of wings picked out we need to order and we're going to spray paint the crown to match the outfit too. I'll be sure to post more pictures once it's done!

Pink Princess Kora

I received a custom order from one of my favorite Princesses, for her own little princess. I sent them fabric and trim samples and the pattern picture we all chose. They picked out the combination they wanted and I put it all together. I think it was a fun project on both ends and I'd like to do it again!

My princess Jr. has the same measurements and really enjoyed being the model.
