If you hear me announce next year that I am making Halloween costumes for the kids, please do NOT let me do it! The kids knew exactly what they wanted to be for Halloween this year, but I couldn't find costumes for cheaper than $40 a piece, so I decided that I could make them. I thought, "How hard could this be?"
I also decided that since I couldn't find a pattern at the material store, I would make my own. Ha! Well, 49.5 hours later of planning, drawing, cutting, pinning, sewing, seam ripping, re-sewing, prying kids' fingers off of sewing machine, hemming, putting in elastic, picking up hundreds of pins Klaasen dumped on the floor (twice!), gluing, saving Maida from Skogen cutting her hair with sewing scissors, and stuffing, and I am only half way done with these costumes. I am so ready to be done!
Any guesses on what they are going to be?
Hmm... I am going to guess Mr./Mrs. Potato Head. Good luck finishing your projects. Very ambitious of you!
