A couple months ago, we were at Walmart and I saw a pattern for a Vampire costume. I had it in my hand and then thought, "This is really just a cape and a bow tie... I bet I can do it myself." The shirt and pants were obviously not made by me.... but I think his cape and bow tie turned out pretty cute.
Little brother was going to just use an old costume, but he wouldn't leave the turtle head on. So one afternoon while the boys were sleeping I whipped this up. I think it turned out pretty good. He was a cute little spider. It would have been better if he had a black shirt, but I didn't want to go buy one. The best part about making this costume was I used fabric we already had so it didn't cost us one penny. I used fleece so I could leave the edges raw.
I also made a cat costume for me and a Zorro costume for my husband. I forgot to take pictures so I will take some and post them soon.
In the same book there are also some cute patterns for mens and a really cool one I am going to make for my 3 year old. This is the book.
