My first appliqué!! I've putting off trying an appliqué because I was so afraid I would suck
I also struggled with how to make an Epcot outfit for ds. I made one similar to Dena's for dd if you remember, and I wanted something with the friends around the world fabric for the boys. But I can't make shorts because it will be December, and ds isn't really a button up shirt kinda guy. So finally I figured it out! So here is my first appliqué and my epcot outfit for ds in one! Ignore the fact that ds5 is a total hamI will make another of the same thing for ds1 next.

I also made dd7 an outfit. She picked out the ladybug material and wanted something to wear to church from it, so this is what I can up with. dd isn't home to model but I figure you'll get the idea.
Hi fellow sewers,
I've started to work on Halloween costumes for my boys recently. I've always wanted to make homemade costumes but never knew how. My 3yo is very into Peter Pan lately and he picked out this pattern.
I've pretty much finished his costume, just need to make the little shoes and finish the back. It was my first time ever making anything with a collar so it looks a little rough.
Jack wants his brother to be Captain Hook, so that is my next project. I'll have to make some alterations since my baby is only about 18 months sized and the smallest size included in the pattern is a 3.
Jack also suggested that I make the Tinkerbelle costume for daddy. I'll have to run that one by DH!
These outfits turned out great. I wouldn't mind them for myself!Ok here is my dd wearing her completed outfit. This is the first time that I have made capri's. I think I am going to take them in because they look more like gauchos than capri's. I wish I could put some type of embelishment on the pants but they were made to wear with both shirts and I can't figure out how to make it fit both. Don't mind my dd silly face she didn't want to get her picture taken. She is getting to that age where I am lucky if I can get a picture of her, used to be when she was littlier she loved getting her picture taken.
Question
I am thinking of making some more of this type of outfit for my Ds for our Sept. trip.
It will be VERY HOT and this outfit has interfacing around the top. Maybe around 1/4 to 1/3 down plus the fabric over top of that. Hope that makes sense. Do you all think that will be too hot? Any other options. I had thought maybe just do a bias tape around the neck and arm but, that might not look very good. I am not the best sewer.
I was also thinking of making one in red with giant buttons on the front like mickey's pants. Do you think that would look good (would people get it)? Probably for evening because red is almost as hot as wearing black.
TIA!

That stinks. Sorry you got flagged. I was so upset when I got flagged for posting someone elses Ebay link. And, I might ad, the administrator (not the mod for this board)was NOT nice about answering my questions to clarify exactly what I could and could not post.

A (cute not scary) witch and bumblebee are on my list too
The pumpkin costume I have is this one: http://www.onestepahead.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=6166&cmSource=Search
It's even cuter in person! I bought the black long sleeved onesie and black tights from The Childrens Place. The Jack o lantern face actually comes off, and it's really cute that way too!
DD just made 11 months. How old is your daughter?
The pic in my sig is from the hospital you can see my boys are simply in love with her
They are pushing for her to be tinkerbell. I want to avoid the wings till she's walking. I think they'll be a pain to wear in the stroller. I think all my friends will be shocked she's not something disney related but I'm not in the mood for princess and I can't think of anything else fun so I'm on to other things this year.
