Completed: 100%
Cost: $ US0
Hours to Make: < 5
First worn at: Halloween 2004
Inspiration: Boredom, love Hunter x Hunter
Favorite Aspect: The wig. Comfy.
Least Favorite Aspect: Cut my finger at some point, probably because I was sewing late at night.
Easiest Task: Tracing a shirt.
Hardest Task: Stitching the skull on. I don't know where my thimble was, plus it didn't want to stay still, or fold under on the edges.
Grabbed a bunch of leftover fabric, traced a t-shirt. Lenghtened it. Made a bandana/collar. Ironed purple fabric into bias tape strips, colored stripes on with a sharpie. attached to bandana thingie, hand stitched a skeleton onto it... Tada! Wasn't that easy? o_o;
Oh, and cut up an old wig from a previous costume. For doing it outside in the dark with a bad porch-light, it came out pretty good! XD
All in all, it just took 2 hours to sew, and 2 hours for hand-sewing the skull.
