Costumes.
So you sewing them for purchase? What can you make for my girls? And can it be ready by the beginning of Oct?
I need help. :para
Um, possibly :para I do have class this semester so if you don't pick anything too complicated.... What did you have in mind? I only have a few patterns for little girls:

So you'll probably want to look through the costume patterns and see what you like. Be sure to click on anything for little kids cause they like to cram several things together on a pattern sometimes.

I am jumping on board if you have the time. I started looking at the desings and they were sooo cute. I like the Bumble here http://www.simplicity.com/dv1_v4.cfm?design=4090
Or the fairy here http://www.simplicity.com/dv1_v4.cfm?design=3994
CAN you actually make thoes? Are they difficult? Do you have the time?

The red flemenco w/ fan is so cute!!! :para So is the mermaid.
Tell me if you'd have time to make 2 of one of those patterns & how much. I can't sew & I hate the crap at the Party Store.
That flamenco dress would be really easy. How much will depend on the fabric you want. How about when I come up there for the twitches' party you and I can go to the fabric store and get stuff (I'll check on sales for patterns and see if I need to buy a pattern sooner or later or what - I hate paying full price for patterns), then I'll try to get them done by the NYC trip and bring them to you there?
Wendy, as a general rule, if I can see it, I can make it. Especially if there's a pattern :lol If you want to try them yourself, neither of those patterns look particularly difficult and I can help you out if you run into trouble.
Oh and Ruby, pick a costume and let me know what it is - if you don't want one of those that I already have, I'll have to start watching for pattern sales to pick it up. They just had patterns on sale this last weekend at Hancock and Joann's, but they always have another sale before Halloween.
