thank you cuties for the inspiration for creating a Pirate Costume for tomorrow for hub's! This is what I have so far.........still trying to figure out how to make boot top covers? His pants I was going to cut jagged but I think he can tuck them into his boots right? I started with my blouse to save time & because I am too tired to make him a new one lol then sewed up a pair of elastic waist pants (one size fits most lol) stitched up a very quick vest & discovered I must have a parrot too ( thanks Bev) lol. spray painted a few buttons since every pirate has some gold & silver on him & sewed it on the vest. What do you think? I have an eye patch too

Tuck the pants into the boots so they puff like a pirates pants. Great costume by the way.
