My Little Red : :

I finished up Haila's Little Red Riding Hood costume last night, so we had to celebrate with a quick photo-shoot in the yard.

Boy was it difficult to choose what photos to share! I realize there are alot, sorry! And even more here, not to mention a hundred more I didn't share. I have to say, we are both pretty thrilled with this costume!

I made the hood out of a faux velvet material that was already lined with satin on the inside, that I picked up on super sale at the nearest Joann. I traced one of Haila's poncho sweaters for the shape, adding some addition length. For the dress, just a simple patchwork, full apron style dress with some Denise Schmidt and a few prints from Pink Castle Fabrics. I included a little Dresden detail to the bib, since I have a bit of an obsession with Dresden's at the moment. : )

Oh, does it feel good to cross this costume off my to-do list! And, many thanks to all my Facebook friends for giving the photo I shared last night so much love. It made my night!!!

I just entered this costume of ours in the fabric wearables category of Celebrate Color. Wish me luck!!!

    I love how it came out and the little basket, and Haila fits the part so well, she is such a beautiful little girl.

    Thank you all so much! Haila is quite thrilled with herself today, as she should be! She was a great model for me yesterday. :) She is wearing the cape right now, as she is eating her chili. LOL

    My confidence to sew clothing is growing, thanks to all of you! I am hoping to make myself a new skirt next! :)

    There's something about all the photos that would make one want to post so many. I couldn't pick a favorite out of the bunch! What a GREAT costume!

    I love your Little Red. Her photos made me smile. It is great to get costumes off the checklist, especially when they turn out! I made my girls' costumes early (for us) this year, they are wondering when in the world they are going to get to do trick or treating!

    Gah, that's awesome! Such a pretty dress too. Way to go above and beyond. For some reason I have zero interest in making Halloween costumes. Bad mama.

    p.s. congrats on being on Noodlehead!

    Sandy, this is from last year -- which is SO hard to believe! I feel like it was just yesterday. :(

    I think I ended up getting second or third maybe? However, her reaction was far better than winning any contest. She loved this costume, slept in the cape a few times, and even wore the dress as an apron for months!
