Did you make their costumes?

That was the question of the night last night when I took my girls to a local Trunk or Treat. And unfortunately the answer was No. I took the easy route and ordered them from Amazon. My oldest daughter picked the theme this year. She wanted to be Ariel so I decided to dress the baby up as Flounder. I figure I only have a few years left that I can get by with coordinating their costumes.

Getting asked if you made something seems to be the biggest side effect of sewing (especially in a small town where everyone knows you can sew). It seems like I hear that question with every outfit my children wear. I am always honored though that people have so much confidence in me. Halloween costumes would be pretty complicated so I felt extra honored last night :) 

So what are your children being for Halloween? Did you make their costumes?

I DID! I DID! I even wrote a few blogs about it. My son is OBSESSED with Elmo right now so that's what he is for Halloween this year. Check out some pictures: http://stitchsilly.blogspot.com/2011/10/completed-elmo.html
