My Little Pumpkin

I came home from a week at my sister's to discover that my Chickenbutt needed a costume for her Tuesday night music class and she no longer wants to be a ladybug for Halloween.  It doesn't seem to matter that I already have all of the ladybug supplies.  Don't get me wrong, she still wants her ladybug costume for day to day use, she just wants to be a jack'o'lantern for Halloween.  So tonight I got busy and make her a jack'o'lantern costume.  A big THANK YOU to my friend Monique who picked up the fleece for me. 


I used the no sew pattern from Joann's Craft Store.  Ironically I came across it when searching for a ladybug costume tutorial.  It was pretty easy and even though I did sew the face on it was done in under an hour - including numerous fittings with Chickenbutt who had to check the mirror each time.  The face did go on a little crooked but by the time she slips it on and we cinch up the neckline it should look fine.
On a highly productive note I also finished the tutu for my Wren's bumblebee costume.  I just need to find her a yellow top and then that is done.
