A Lion And A Lamb

My mom is coming into town Wednesday for Halloween. She, my sister and I were going to make Nora's Halloween costume for the big Halloween walk downtown (Jack has his), but my sister got the dates of it wrong (she thought it was this-coming Saturday but it was this past Saturday), so I came in Wednesday to make it.

Nora wanted to be a lamb. By Saturday, I finished everything but the hat. Here it is:

Happy Halloween!

Since the above picture was taken, I attached the hat to her collar and made it a hoodie. I also made her some different pants. (Her butt was hanging out of the pair above.) I'm not thrilled with Jack's costume (no matching pants?), so I'm going to work on that today. They have three more Halloween parties to go to, so there's plenty of time to perfect it.

I'll post details on how I made the costume later, but didn't it turn out cute?

Cute kids in cute costumes - its cute overdose!

I love how you left the sleeves and legs short enough for the black lamb legs to poke through. That is so clever! You could go into child costume design!

This is adorable. You're very talented!

Both costumes (and kids) are adorable--I especially love Nora's. And I'm jealous that they have so many Halloween parties to attend--too cute! What great memories and keepsakes you're creating for your niece and nephew.

You cannot be any cuter than they are. You are great with sewing & creative design.

You are totally inspiring me to bust out the sewing machine and make oodles of stuff! Way to go Karyn!

Very cute!
Hope you all have fun on Halloween!

Great job! The little black legs and arms are perfect. Isn't making your own things satisfying? (And addicting!)

Great costumes. You could go into business making hand crafted costumes. Author/costume maker. It so works!! I'd buy one:-)

October 27, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterKeep moving forward

you are good Karyn!
