Busy Making...

We've ben busy making costumes over the past few weeks. First project was to create costumes for Makhaya's Spooky Birthday Party. We walked out of the reject shop with witches hats and broomsticks and proceeded to Lincraft to purchase some black material to be transform into cloaks. A quick google search to find instructions on sewing a cloak and actually with minimal sewing we had two cloaks!


Andy took his two little witches to Makhaya's party (while I was recovering from a cold). Unfortunately Katy spent most of the party in Andy's arms and the other half of the party outside.  She was scared to death with many of the costumes!!

Meanwhile last week was Bookweek and Ella decided to go as Little Red Riding Hood. Great I thought...another cloak! Back to Lincraft for red material this time. Another google search and a few hours later involving much more sewing a red hooded cloak was successfully made. Katy and I attended the Bookweek parade at Aranda. It was great to see so many characters with Wally, Cat in the Hat, Fancy Nancy, Harry Potter, numerous fairies, witches proving to be popular and less so Rainbow Fish, Saucepan man, Peter Pan and Darth Vader.
