Life! Loss! LOL

Hello from the Magpie's Nest once again. Well, Summer was full yet also lazy at the same time...go figure. I had so many projects ready and waiting for posting...EXCITING! Then BoOm both of the computers crashed within one week of each other. Did I have backups? Yes, Laptop backed up to PC. GRRRRRR. So I start again, new projects to photograph, edit, write into fabulous blurbs.

Halloween is coming up, I have started on a Raven Nightmare costume for a dance performance as well as a Witches Ball. So, that will be my first re-entry into this blog,

I was lost, now I am back on track. SEE YOU SOON.

Halloween Time

Halloween is my FAVORITE time of year. Not the Pumpkin spice side of things, but the DRESS-UP. To be your inner monster or to become a fictional/real persona.

We are taking this moment to talk about DRAGONS. Real life use of a child's fantastic imagination. Be it scary, sweet, or covered in sparkles. 

Mcalls Pattern M6185
Modifying this pattern to be a slim jumpsuit (onesie) with hood. 

The dragon in this child's mind is dark, mysterious, and fierce! RAWR!

I will be using the following fabrics from my favorite source... Fabric.com

Supply List:

Main fabric will be 3.5 yard of Sparkly Black 
Spikes/Claws/Tail 1 yard of Black broadcloth

Other supplies needed:

12" black zipper
Black thread
Elastic
