first hallowe’en

lion_mama.jpg

i initially didn’t think i would get rebecca a hallowe’en costume, but at the last minute i decided i couldn’t pass up the opportunity to make her wear cute animal ears. inspired by a pair of adorable lion booties (thank you walter and gertrud!), i managed to sew her a little lion hoodie and vest, complete with tail. definitely worth the effort! her cuteness did earn me a couple of coffee crisps. oh yeah.

not too thrilled perhaps. roar?
