I am so behind on Halloween costumes! I haven't even started BugBoy's costume. I have 14 days. Crap! I have never waited so long. I guess technically I have started, I've shopped and enlarged the pattern from the doll face book.
I have however, almost completed my new pirate dress:
I finished the bottom ruffle finally. Now I just need to tighten the elastic at the neck and arms. Other than that and some ironing, it is done. I'm so glad I didn't try to enlarge it. It is a bit large even though according to the size chart it shouldn't be. My seams, not so straight, but that's the beauty of sewing costumes. I don't drive myself crazy when I have crooked seams.
Isn't the necklace cool? I bought it from Surly on Etsy.
LOVE the necklace, and the bookshelf!
Your pirate costume looks great - pls post a pic that includes the ruffle!
Get started on bugboy's already!!!!
