This is another shirt that I drafted from a pin on Pinterest. It is actually a Burda pattern that I saw at one point last year. It was a pretty simple pattern, so it wasn’t like I needed to buy it. It is just a big boxy shirt. So…not sure about it. It is really […]
I got two more swimsuits finished up this week for the little miss. She goes to a day camp during the summer, and they usually go swimming a few times a week. Most of her old swimsuits were a little too small, so luckily I have a lot of swimsuit fabric. <<Fabric Hoarder>> Yes, that […]
I was trying to figure out what I wanted to sew on a Sunday night, since I finally had some free time. We are in the midst of softball, baseball and yardwork. It must be springtime. I decided to try to draft a new pattern from one of my pins on Pinterest. This is the […]
I figured I would pull this post from my other blog and put it over here in case anyone was interested. This was my craftroom in the basement before we took the unfinished basement space and made it fabulous. It was totally open to bugs and the like…and really messy: Totally hard to believe […]

Another test top! I am really my own worse enemy when it comes to overcommitting myself. On top of finishing up the costumes for the kids I said “yes” to testing clothes. I really did like this top, though. It actually can also be a dress, which was how the original design was made. I suggested […]
The Girl has gotten a birthday dress every year since her 2nd birthday. Last year, I didn’t really make her an extra dress apart from the Elsa costume dress I made her for the comic con. She really wasn’t into wearing dresses, so I counted that her birthday make. This year she was a little […]
Costume Details
Posts on how I made it: The Jacket The vest and pants The vambraces The tomahawk The arm bands
All things being equal, this costume was much less involved than my son’s costume for the con.

The costume dress is a mix of a crinkle, double-sided knit which is rather heavy, pleather and a lightweight […]
