PhyllisC said... I was wondering what was going on with his hair. His Draco Malfoy smirk is very convincing! 9/21/05 10:40 AM

Motorposus said... I had to grin when I saw this review, because I remember you saying last Halloween that you hate sewing costumes! But isn't the sneer on your young 'un's face worth it? 9/21/05 6:01 PM
Modiste Madness said... I literally just came home from JoAnn's after buying brown fabric for an Obi Wan Kenobi (However, you spell it.) robe for 6th grader's Halloween Costume. I am amazed I bought it so early. Trust me it will end up on your time schedule. I appreciate your hectic approach to the project. Sounds like around here. His robe looked abosolutely great in the end - couture or not. 9/21/05 9:20 PM

MarilynB said... Great costume and great review. I understand what you went through. My DSs are older now, but I went through this with Ninja Turtles and Star Wars. 9/22/05 5:34 AM
ryan's mom said... What a great job you did with the cape! I shudder everytime one of my kids wants me to make something for them with a time limit! I'm in awe of you doing it in 4 hours! And such wonderful work too. That would take me four days, not four hours to do LOL! What a great mom your son has! :) 9/22/05 7:57 AM
cmj said... It looks great! At my nephew's school, they're also required to wear costumes for their reports- but the kids have to make them themselves. No parent help allowed (although he did need to be taught how to use the sewing machine). 9/22/05 2:29 PM

Diane E said... Dear Ann, I think you and I are sharing a life! I so know what you mean when you put "lock" on your Christmas wishlist.... anyhow, your Draco is wonderful and he looks the part. I'll bet the kids loved the report. Also, what brand of blonde-in-a-can did you use? I think I may try that instead of my more pricey salon highlights ;) 9/23/05 2:54 PM
Lisa Laree said... Tee-hee, Ann, what a hoot! I've got to remember that mantra for my upcoming costume blitz...'It's a costume, not couture'... :) 9/23/05 3:19 PM
