Halloween-ish

I like making my granddaughters things for the holidays.

I try to make things they can use in the season - rather than just one day.

 

I found this cute little set below from Pottery Barn and thought it would get plenty of use through Thanksgiving.

 

 

 I then prettied it up a little using tulle and ribbon.

 

 

Knowing I had gold metallic thread at home, I purchased these adorable little sparkly skirts and embroidered their names on long sleeved tee's to match.

 

 

It matched perfectly.

Just look at that sparkle...

 

 

Sometimes metallic thread is a little tricky.

If you use a metallic needle and slow your machine down a bit, you should have no problem stitching with metallic thread. 

 

 

Add a witches hat and broom and you will have a cute little witch costume.

After Halloween, the shirt can be worn with jeans until the weather warms up and the skirt can be worn with another top and tights - no one would suspect...  

 

See ya soon...
