woo hoo! can’t wait!
Ummm, does anyone know if there is still a way to get into the old craftster stuff? I know I was lucky enough to be partnered with kittykill once before. I don’t want to send her a repeat!

Yay! I’ve been on work retreat mode which was fun but exhausting. Now it’s over and I have time to plan for this swap!

Just gott back from a women’s retreat. Ready to start brewing up some creative trouble…
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg and howlet’s wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Cool it with a baboon’s blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
…gathering my ingredients.

Already finished one small project! I’m guessing we can send early if we finish sooner than later

What was your favorite Halloween costume?

Hmm…my favorite was when I was maybe 7 years old and I put together my princess costume out of hand me down clothing at my grandmas. I have no idea what I looked like and no picture exists but I thought my outfit was very regal and fancy.
Second favorite was from maybe 20 years ago when I dressed as Death from Sandman. I once again pieced the costume together from my wardrobe.
A picture does exist. I think I just looked Goth. Heh.

Steampunk witxh and steampunk engine. 2017 and many times since. I’m the witch and my sweetie is a wizard…very strong. The engine was for Trunk or Treat. And reused several times.

Hard choice. Probably the year hubby and I went as Mr & Mrs Potato Head. Made us felt potato costumes with 3-D Velcro parts, so we could switch them around. It was definitely a fun ice breaker!

One of my favorite characters is Wednesday. Super easy for me since I can find clothes already in my closet to wear. That year my son wanted to be Aang.
I also make most my son’s costumes and my favorite one that sewed was Toothless.

I usually dress as a witch and don’t have a single photo to prove it.
