good pattern for spider costume (for toddler)

Oct 20, 2007 4 Replies

hello, is there a good pattern company for kids costumes ?



in this case i am looking for spider costume, not too elaborate (for comfort reasons).



and any suggestions for material ? would be appreciated. i was thinking black muslin. but then something with a little sheen would probably look nice ? furry would be the greatest but too heavy i think , a stretch knit probably the best for shaping ?



I all ready have an idea in my head something like ....



simple outline of spider shape 2 pieces (top/bottom), plump with a litttle batting (fiber fill), attach this too a long sleeve t-shirt or make two long sleeves to wear like it a jacket, you know where it is going



thanks for any helpful advice, robb


Have a look at this:

That's basically what I was going to suggest. Although, I would use a black hoodie so you don't have to worry about a hat or anything. A friend of mine made one of these for herself several years ago. (to wear taking her kids trick or treating.) It looked really cute!
