Witch Costumes

So, I got very ambitious this year and decided to make the girls Halloween costumes. I had looked at the costumes at the stores and they were just so cheap looking I couldn't bring myself to buy one. I let Kayt pick out the fabric for her very first witch costume. I wasn't sure how I was going to make them but I had a vision in my head.

It was a couple of late nights but I did it. I made the cutest witch costumes you have ever seen. I was so proud of myself. I kept saying it over and over again to Scott. I had to call my mom for a few little tricks (like why the elastic wouldn't work) but it was the biggest sewing feat I have accomplished. The largest jewel in my new crafters crown was the hats however, Ella's especially. I made it with no pattern on the first attempt!!!!! For any who know me this is a big deal. I usually botch all crafting project at least once before they turn out alright.

I guess I learned what my mom has told me I would all along, "when I am not here to save you, you will be able to do it". My mom still saved me but I was able to do most of it on my own. Yea!!

The ward trunk of treat was the official unveiling and it was great. Trunk or Treat are the most efficient was of getting candy I have yet to see. 10 minutes and your bag is full.
