Halloween

This Halloween I had the urge to make homemade costumes. I guess I like to work under a deadline when it comes to projects because then they actually get done and I was in a sewing mood so I had to strike while the iron was hot! I made four costumes, my Bee dress, Paul's bee keeper suit and hat, Hannah's barbie outfit (The pants, shirt and headband) and Amara's Geisha outfit. It was nice to just whip them out without major fitting adjustments because they were just Halloween costumes, why can't normal clothes be that carefree? I made all the outfits in about five hours, I was surprised how fast they went. Growing up we always had a costume basket with fun dress up clothes, I have wanted to start that for my family so I decided to start this year, hopefully it can continue to grow and will be fun for my kids in the future. We had a fun Halloween and enjoyed spending time with family and friends.

How did you learn to sew so well and so quickly? I am all impressed. I too want a costume box/closet. It is just too fun to dress up!
