Happy (belated) Halloween!

Halloween with a child, means I get to go nuts creating a handmade costume. This is probably the last year I get to pick what the costume is, so I went with a scarecrow. I didn’t really see a pattern I liked so I decided to make one myself. I’m not that skilled in pattern […]
