A veggie patch

Being a parent of twin babies, I missed the chance to submit these to the Craftster Challenge this month.  It's hard enough to find time to make Halloween costumes, let alone photograph them, upload said photos, and post them. 

But I did it!  (if a little late).  At least the costumes were done on time!

Peas and carrots:


Stinker little boy, smiling because he pulled a Halloween sock off:


And sweet little girl, unsure if she will tolerate the hat.


The costumes were based on ones I saw on Etsy, but didn't want to pay $135 for.  They're basically polar fleece tubes with loose elastic at the neck.  Little boy is wearing pants made from the sleeves of an old shirt of mine. Little girl's tights were store-bought.  The hats are lined so they can wear them all winter, and they're based on this snow pixie hat, yet I modified the shape and construction to meet my needs: http://sewliberated.typepad.com/sew_liberated/2010/12/the-snow-pixie-hat-tutorial.html
