Countdown to Costume

Get a cat, they said. It will be fun, they said.......

You know it's going to be a loooonnnngggg day when you have to wash cat throw up off the hood of your car from said cat. 'Nuf said! After that on to Joann's we went. D#2 finally decided on a costume. I think deciding is the hardest part. She started thinking about it as early as July. Robin (the bird not Batman's sidekick), dragon, eagle, bunny, mouse, snow leopard, cheetah, and finally some kind of pokemon that I am not familiar with. I asked her to pick three of her favorite characters and let's narrow it down: snow leopard, eagle and pikachu (pokemon that I am familiar with). Final decision was made Thursday and so to Joann's we went on Friday.


                                                         I have to turn this:


Into this:

Wish me luck. Expectations are great. Mom just hopes she can meet them, especially since time's a runnin' out!

Here's a sneak peek at a project that I am working on. Patterns and instructions will be on the blog in the future. Kind of another series like the Trick or Treat kids and Creature Feature from last year.  Can you guess what the theme is?


Gotta run, there's fabric to be cut! Chop, Chop!!
Have a wonderful weekend,
Holly
