Thomas the Train for Halloween 2014
I'd like to start by saying that from now on I will be sticking to sewing costumes, not making them out of cardboard, glue, and duct tape.
But, when Henry suggested Thomas the Train as a Halloween costume back in August, I was instantly intrigued and excited by the possibilities.
It was definitely an interesting challenge and took more time than I anticipated. I didn't do a good job of documenting the process while I was working on it, so I only have the final pictures. Sorry!
I am happy with how it turned out and Henry seemed to enjoy it, although he didn't enjoy wearing for that long. I think it became a bit cumbersome and I made the mistake of joking about it disintegrating in the massive rain shower we had that morning, which might have scared him bit.
