Thanks guys! I'm giving it to him tomorrow. I'll update with an action shot

So this just may be the coolest thing I've ever made. And now I have to give it to my guy for his birthday. ...sigh.

Followed http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=100217.0 for basic hoodie making tips. I didn't draw out a pattern or anything, just kinda made it up as I went. There are a few mistakes, but I am pleased overall with how it turned out.









excuse the iphoto quality, i couldn't find my camera.

Hit "this rocks" this is absolutely fantastic! It makes me really wish that I knew how to quilt. I'm sorry if this is a silly question, but how "advanced" do you think this project is. For example, should I try making a basic quilt before I even attempt to follow in these most bloody footsteps? Because I would love to have something like this on my bed.

This is the first contest i've entered and i'm excited

I made everything that my costume includes except the tinkerbell and the dagger.

So here it is, my childhood dream completed! For halloween this year i was Peter Pan.
Enjoy!
(sorry there are no "making of" pictures, it involved a lot of sewing of leaves...pretty bland)

great job. your son is so lucky to have an awesome quilt like this

Ahhh soo cute! I think i like them both ways, each way gives them a different personality. very good job

This is absolutely wonderful! I wish i could dress up my bunny, but he would eat the costume in the process of me trying to put it on him. and he would give me so many disapproving bunny looks that i wouldn't know what to do. very good job, i love this a lot!

so awesome! i want to make her now. thanks for the link to the tutorial
