Sean wanted to be Ash, specifically from the Kalos seasons of the anime. Shirt is a modified Zippy Jacket from Blank Slate Patterns. I added white HTV to a hat with a mini iron, and I bought solid red and black fingerless gloves from Amazon and chopped and reassembled them. He won 2nd place in the kids cosplay contest at the library comic- con! Kids raglan in Knitorious "marvelous evolutions" panel and print. I absolutely love this print! Mew as Spider Gwen is so cute! Umbreon version of the Eeveelution hooded shrug free pattern from Choly Knight. http://www.cholyknight.com/2017/10/06/eevee-hooded-shrug She has free coin purse and "blob" plush patterns for all the Eeveelutions too!

Spooky sews- Swoon Ethel

My first structured bag, the Swoon Ethel (another free pattern). After a couple of years of sewing with stretch knits, I'm revisiting wovens and I've gotten a lot better, lol. This bag uses sew-in foam interfacing for the structure. Zombie pin up fabric from JoAnn. I've started buying whole bolts of SF101 interfacing (the light woven interfacing used for most bags) whenever it goes on sale or I have a great coupon. It's very narrow so you use tons of yards of it in each bag.
