Sewing mamas!Calling all AmityMama's who like to sew! Do you make quilts, clothes, diapers, bags? Do you love to run your fingers through fiber? Can't get enough just sewing, but want to talk about it too? Come on in!
Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia are ready to Trick or Treat! (photo added!)
I'm not on the sewing forum much because I'm really not as much of a sewing mama as much as a sewing mama wannabe. But I just had to come in and brag that I made costumes for ds and dd for Halloween and saved a bundle! I only spent like $3.50. And they turned out cute. I didn't use a pattern or anything, just kinda sewed any which way. I still need to add a couple things if I'm feeling ambitious, but if not they still look good. Anyway I just had to share. Sorry no picture yet.

Cool--hurry and post pictures, Ann!! I'll bet they're adorable!
I remember the first costume I sewed...it was a dinosaur, and Steven was only 16 months old. He loved it, and I have pictures of him walking around and saying "Roar!"
I agree--these are the things that make memories. Enjoy them!

Ok, I added a pic to my sig!
And here's more of a side view to see the Leia hair. LOL
Except I had to make the picture so small you can't really see it. Oh well, anyways...at least you get an idea.
