Sock Hop Halloween

The final Halloween costumes are listed in my shop:

Yep, it's a Sock Hop Halloween! I am super excited about these two sets. I used a MyAngieGirl pattern (found at Pixie Faire) called "The 4-Way Wardrobe" and I am so impressed with it. If I didn't have real-people Halloween sewing to do, I would spend my whole month making poodle skirt sets and trying out all the cute little animal silhouette options!

Maryellen . . . and a Ghostbride!

There are two new listings in my shop:

I'm excited to share my first Maryellen offering: a 1950's blouse and gingham skirt. The blouse has working buttons and a cute ribbon sash. Also listed is an awesome costume: the Ghostbride! I've been wanting make something like this for awhile. I love zombie bride costumes or a good corpse's bride. But those are kind of scary. And how does one make an American Girl doll look scary? So I came up with a Ghostbride costume--it's flowy and eerie and spooky. It comes with a veil, bouquet, and trick-or-treating bucket. Halloween here we come!
