My brief for this Halloween was a cat costume so that Maia could play the black cat familiar to her witchy best friend. I nearly Bimaaed a cat hoodie to wear with black leggings until I discovered a large piece of black polar fleece on the top shelf (and being that my years-old fleece stash is the stash I'm keenest to bash) and decided to make a cat onesie instead.
It's got a double layer fleece hood with a drawstring to hug the face should one desire (hugging this face is frankly irresistible) and I split the hood in such a way that I could insert big ol' ears in the seam.
It's got a long front zip, drop crotch (ugh to that term), and slouchy legs so she can wear it comfortably for a good couple of years. Onesies are for life, not just for Halloween.
I forgot to put a tail in the back seam but, as you can see, it in no way hinders her ability to strut around like a gd Cat Boss.
I love it!! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
ReplyDeleteThis is so cool! If I had ridiculous amounts of fleece I might even make one for me.
