Reverb10 - Prompt6

December 6 – Make. What was the last thing you made? What materials did you use? Is there something you want to make, but you need to clear some time for it? (More at Reverb10.com)

I make with such regularity that it hardly seems worth posting. I opened iphoto to look for a snapshot of something I've made recently, and the first photo looking back at me was this - my goofy nieces (who can't both take a good picture at the same time) in their Halloween costumes.

I usually shy away from sewing with patterns, because I hate tedium, and all the careful cutting and matching is very tedious. But who am I to resist a little challenge, especially when it comes to making these girls so happy? Marisa bought the fabric and the pattern and I did the (very hard) work.

Sweet little nurses in scrubs. They borrowed mommy's stethoscope and blood pressure cuff. And because I couldn't help myself, I even made matching trick-or-treat bags.
