I mentioned my daughter wanted me to make her a costume & now we have finished it. She made the purse herself & dyed thermal pants to match I had her stuff the hat with pillow stuffing so it would stay tall. She comes up with the idea & brings me a picture & I try to match the picture as best as I can. She will wear it to her office today & they pick the best costume & award a monetary prize. She has won the last 4 years.

Very cute. I square dance, and I think I could adapt one of my square dance outfits with the suspenders, shoes, hat and maybe a cute mushroom. I hope you don't mind my borrowing your ideas. I'm always looking for something fairly simple for our Halloween square dance. Thanks for sharing.
