No Sew Tutu

Just wanted to tell everyone HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
One of my favorite holidays ever...



Thought I would share with you the costume my daughter and I made last Friday night.  Took a few hours but it was worth it.
She is so proud of her tutu.
She added a superman shirt to it and became Super Girl.
She tried to convince me that she will wear it again. Since we used red, white, and blue she is planning on wearing it for the 4th of July. lol





This is all we used.  Well, kind of...
I did end up going back to Walmart to purchase three more rolls of tulle.  So, our project included:
2 rolls of blue
2 rolls of red
2 rolls of white
The tulle was $2.99 a roll and the elastic was about $1.50.
Ended up not being the cheapest costume but we had a lot of fun making it.
I sewed the elastic together instead of putting a knot in it because it was wider elastic.  The rest was all no-sew.  We measured how long we wanted the tutu and then doubled the tulle.  We put all three colors together and then tied it around the elastic.  If you are making it for a little girl it won't take as much tulle...

If any of you are heading out trick-or-treating tonight stay safe and have fun.
