Halloween Costumes

Its that time of year to start sewing those costumes. This year I won't be making anything for myself. I just don't have the time. I still have all my old costumes:Catwoman, Elektra, Harley Quinn, Psylocke, Pirate Belly Dancer, Ninja, Mermaid Vampire, etc. I guess I'll just throw a bunch of stuff together. Who knows. Right now I am concentrating on my boys costumes.

 My 16 year old doesn't dress up and hasn't since he was 10 or so. My 10 year old wants to be Dracula from Van Helsing. The 6 year old wants to be Batman but the older costume to which no one sells anymore. My kids always find characters to which there are no patterns for so I usually fudge other patterns to make their costumes. I've made Mario of Nintendo, Wario of Nintendo, Yoshi of Nintendo, Jack Sparrow(before there was a pattern), Night crawler of X-men and the list goes on. So, I'll be busy working on their costumes. Maybe I'll put up pictures of old costume pictures of me.
