Got going again on the Halloween costumes. Excuse the background, but I am cutting on the bedroom floor. With two and a half rooms still out of action, we are a little short on space!
The skirt is going to be a bit swishier than the one in the movie, we settled on a circle skirt. I am free-handing the cutting a little, but it seems to be working. (I am using bits from about 5 different patterns to build this dress!) I am adding a longer layer in white satin for extra warmth.
My daughter is using the left-over bits to make clothes for her dolls and ponies. The sewing lessons we did over the summer are paying off. I showed her how to cut patterns from paper and she took it from there (pony got a circle skirt too).
The cloak is nearly finished. I just need to finish off the hood inside and add a seam to the bottom. She loves it so far!
Oh, and she helped me make the snowflakes for her hair. I posted a pic over on Instagram
