I need the Force or some sort of miracle since I FINALLY decided to get started on Halloween costumes yesterday - YIKES! Ever since we moved this summer I have debated whether to make the kids' costumes like I usually do or just buy them. I was leaning more towards buying them since I don't have a craft room yet, and since my sewing machine was now 1 hour away, but I just couldn't get myself to spend that much money on a costume! David finally talked me into getting a new sewing machine as an early Christmas present earlier this month - it is awesome, I'm so glad I finally broke down and let him get it for me - no more borrowing my old one back from my SIL ;-P My other dilema with making costumes, there is no fabric store here, and my shopping options are really limited so it's going to be hard to find what I need for the costumes! Luckily I found some of our moving boxes with my fabric and craft supplies and was able to whip up this quick hat for Trysten out of some fleece scraps - SO glad I had the right color! Tell me, are the ears too big or just right? I just got Trysten's robe done (which means his is completely done unless I change the ears) and now I'm starting on Brailee's costume (she needs it tomorrow for Preschool) so wish me luck - I'll share them all when/if I get them done.

Thanks for visiting!

I think they are just right, and Trysten is sooo adorable in them. Great job!
Looks cute this far. Good luck to you. I know that I made my kids costumes, but didn't get that creative I guess.
You're awesome! I think it's adorable on Trysten. Can't wait to see Brailee's tomorrow at preschool.
darling!
Oh goodness, it have to say they are just right. Trysten looks absolutely adorable!
Congrats on your new sewing machine. You are definitely most deserving of the early treat.
Good luck on completing the rest of the costumes. I have a feeling all your kids will look fabulous!
