little jailbird

This year I made my first Halloween costume for my son, who will be 2 in December.


I think it turned out really cute and was super easy! I had this striped fabric sitting around for who knows how long, so I'm glad I finally got to put it to use. All I did was use an existing pair of pants and shirt for the pattern and traced around it, adding seam allowances. The hat was pretty easy too - a long strip equal to the circumference of his head, with a circle in the middle. That took only 2 tries to get it right ;) And the finishing touch are the birthday prison numbers.

Maybe next year I will actually take more pictures of the costume making process! Sorry guys, I'm still new at this blogging thing.

How was your Halloween?
