The munchkin has been bugging me like crazy to wear her Halloween costume that we bought last week. Its just killing her that Halloween and Trick or Treating is not coming fast enough. Shes going to be Superman Girl this year. Yes, that was Super-MAN-Girl... not Super Girl... oh no, not according to little miss munchkin... it's Superman girl! LOL! Well, to suppress the mind numbing rant of asking me a million times over, I decided I was gonna make her an everyday sorta kinda cape to wear. The kid loves and I mean LOVES superheros. I cant blame her... the hubs and I sorta instilled this upon her LOL, in fact I think we created a monster.. so I googled the heck outta of how to make your own. I do not have a sewing machine (yet... and lord knows how I need one ASAP!) so I needed something fairly simple. I then stumbled upon Cassidy's Tutorial at Thrillingly Thrifty. When I saw her tutorial on the capes she made for her kids, I just knew this would be perfect! Thannnnnnnks so much Cassidy... you truly have saved my sanity till Halloween! So I took about 4 hours last night and sewed (by hand) a cape she can wear till Halloween and probably everyday there on till she graduates college. Yes, I could totally picture this child going off to college cape and all... that's how much she loves superheros! So without further ado I shall entertain you with a few pics of my little caped crusader. And please take a few minutes to check out Cassidy's blog shes pretty much amazing and has some awesome tutorials!
I made her a mask also, which she seemed to love despite looking like Mushmouth from Fat Albert LOL! What can I say?... it was my first attempt at a mask.
