Sew A Little Halloween Magic

Halloween has always been one of my favorite times to buy fabric, challenge my sewing skills, and create costumes.

And if you already own a Sure Fit Designs kit, you may have more of what you need than you realize!

A skirt can become a cape. A dress can become a witch, princess, or storybook costume. Shirts and pants can become pirates, superheros, adventurers and so much more.

The Children's Kit is especially fun for custume making. Once you have the fit, change the fabric, add fullness, lengthen a skirt, exaggerate a sleeve, add a hood, cape or some fabulous trim.

Your Sure Fit Designs Kit gives you the fit, your imagination gets to do the rest.

Every year I love dressing up as Morticia Addams, a few years ago I recreated her dramatic 1960s-inspired gown.

....you won't find instructions in your Dress Kit for Morticia's dramatic tentacles....

Some things require a little Halloween ingenuity of your own.

But I know you can do it!

So this Halloween, give yourself permission to experiment. Try the fabric you are afraid of. Learn a new technique. Attempt something you've never tried before.

That's one of the wonderful things about sewing costumes—nothing has to be perfect. There's room to experiment, room to make mistakes, and room to figure things out as you go. An when you're sewing for children, they're much more interested in becoming the character they imagined than whether every stich it exactly right.

So be adventurous. Play. Try something new. You might surprise yourself with what you can create.

Fondly,

Janine
