So for the first time in my life I will be wearing my gear on Halloween, and my lady friend wanted to go as something that was in the theme of things, and originally we were going to try to do the Slimer thing, but we couldn’t find the right fabric that suited us, so we opted for Mr. Stay Puft instead. We did a simple tee shirt with puffy sleeves for her shirt, and I made her the bib.
Need letters for the hat, and we are set! She is going to spray her hair with some white streaks. Look forward to seeing this all on her. I’ll post pics then.
Thanks, guys! She has a pair of white shorts she will be wearing, and either leg warmers, or knee socks. She also wants to wear leg warmers on her arms. She saw a pic of someone at Dragon*Con doing that. Not sure how to pull that off, tho.
Don’t know who this is, or where it came from, but she wants to do the arm and leg warmers like this. Anyone have any ideas? These look like they are made for this person, but I don’t know if I have time for that. I could probably alter some long socks, but that’s about all I can think of. If anyone has any suggestions, I’m open.
Keep it as simple as possible, I’d say. For ease of sewing, perhaps get some white fleece and trace around her arms and legs, going up however far you would like the arm and legwarmers to go. Cut two pieces from each tracing (2 left sides, 2 right sides for both sets of limbs), sew them together and make any adjustments as needed. Fleece is affordable, forgiving and stretchy, too. That should get you through in a pinch since time is short.
Keep us posted! I like what I’m seeing. Loving the itty hat and the sailor collar is GREAT.
Let’s see, you’re in Kentucky, so there’s a good chance you have one of these three stores in or near your area: Joann’s, Hobby Lobby or Hancock Fabrics. They should definitely have some white fleece there.
If not? Get to Wal-Mart or Target and sacrifice a polar fleece blanket! Good luck!
