testing my novice sewing skills once again....You see....in my head, things seem so easy to sew that I often think I can do it. This year I am making....yes I said making part of Ashton's Halloween costume. The reason for this is simple....the original costume costs over $100 with all the pieces if we were to order it from the catalog she discovered it in. I am NOT ever going to spend $100 on a costume that will get worn twice for a total of a few hours.
Since Ashton really wanted this costume, I told her I could make it if she wanted me to or she could pick something else. She opted for me making it.
Today I worked on part of it....I will reveal the finished product when it gets closer to Halloween and I have it finished. Wish me luck that I can pull this off!
You'd think I am sewer or something, but really I am soooo not. The only classes I have were many moons ago in my middle school Home Ec class. All I can say is thank goodness for the internet tutorials, you tube and pictures!
