No elaborate suits or fantastical structures to be constructed, hooray! Just a simple black knit Hopscotch Dress, black tail, and black cat ears on a headband. I can do that.
The most challenging part will be finding the right black lace for the hem that she's clearly communicated is a crucial element of the costume. I love that she's thinking about the little details like that, and about what color her nose should be: black or pink?
That detail still needs to be decided.
Nose = definitely pink.
ReplyDeleteabsolutely adorable!
ReplyDeleteit was so fun to meet you (and her!) this weekend. thanks for being a great resource and wonderful inspiration.
My daughter is also a black cat this year. I started out being thrilled to do more elaborate costumes since I wasn't really sewing clothes, but now that I am sewing most of my clothes and many of my daughters I have to say I am with you, the simpler the better. This year it will be a black cat and the my son will be death.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the kitty.

My daughter just said, "That looks like a really cute dress. Can you make that for me?"
ReplyDeleteI think that means I'm going to have to make a Halloween costume now.
I find it amusing that my daughter and your daughter chose to be the same black cat. I tried to talk my daughter into a little color and she she was against it. And for once I was actually excited about making a costume for her this year. Maybe next year...
