Andre was easy...a pirate. Infact most of the boys in class came dressed with the same idea so. We looked up the names of a famous pirate and off Black Beard went to school very happy.
As for McKenzie this was a far greater challenge. Luckily we had the leftovers of a white sheet, gold fabric bags that the curtains came in when they were made in Hong Kong and black tights to work with.
So I dragged this out of the tall cupboard down the hallway. ( I have tested the black and white function on the camera).
This antique works and probably is almost as old as me (and I am not an antique). Oh and yes I can use it.
Anyway after working all week and finally getting the idea together in my head I got to making a Knights outfit. Very basic with no pattern.
I sewed around the children having dinner at the table
(Note to self....lucky I had hair cut and coloured just the evening before)
So here is the Knight. Not very creative but one very happy daughter.
My post would not be complete without a photo of the pirate.
Next week I need to create a Grecian Girl. Wish me luck.
