just wanted to share this with you...

found this photo online...
somewhere, in one of the totes in one of the closets is a costume just like this one...

I made it for Craiger when he was 2 and he wore it several years, his favorite costume ever...
and then the neighbor kids wore it...
then friends' kids wore it...
Instead of making the big bulky gloves with the costume, I bought white ones at walmart so he could use his hands better...
and then there were orange duck feet that slipped over his shoes...
this was a McCall's pattern...
if you want to make one yourself...
bought mine in 87 but bet you could find it on ebay...

4 babies are heading for the vet today...
waiting for Jane to come pick them up and then she will bring them back here...
until adoption day on Saturday and then they will leave for good...
we will be down to just 2 babies then...
yeah...
and they have a home to go back to, so the hard part is done...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN, EVERYONE!
I LOVE A HOLIDAY WHEN ITS ALL ABOUT THE CANDY!

What a cute story- It sounds like you more than got your money's worth out of that pattern. I think you can still buy that pattern if I am not mistaken...or something very similar.

Glad your babies are getting ready to go to their homes. Whatever will you do when the last two leave? xo Diana

What a cute outfit for Halloween. Makes it worthwhile when it gets used that much.
Glad the kitties are getting ready for new homes, I know they are a lot of work.
