SCARBERIAN FASHION LOVER

 Last year, we were able to attend the TTC Halloween Fest (held in an abandoned subway station in downtown Toronto. Proceeds always go to a charity.) Well, we were able to do it again this year and it was a lot of fun! The volunteers were always great:) It's a start of another yearly family tradition....LOLZ Oh em gee! This character was hilarious! S/he ended up following my middle child even when we left the event to scare him! :D Do you have any plans this Halloween?

 Unfortunately, these past few weeks have been a bit busy that I didn't have time to sew any Halloween costumes....sigh.... I don't even know if we're giving out candies, so to make up for the lack of Halloween fun at home, we decided to go to the TTC Halloween Fest this year. This was held at the abandoned (1966) subway station  located underneath the current Bay stop (although they do do a lot of filming here). This station is supposedly haunted!!! Here are some pics of the event:) my fave pic Happy Halloween, everyone! What are your plans for the day? BTW, in case you are interested in art, this is my latest YT video on my art channel:D

 Since I haven't sewed costumes in awhile, I decided to go all out this year.  I used commercial patterns to make these pieces, but changed the pattern according to our shapes:) I wanted these costumes to last a long time because they're basically what we will be wearing for Fan Expo next year. My daughter as the Joker from Gotham, my middle child as Roy Mustang in Fullmetal Alchemist, and moi as a a member of the Survey Corp from Attack on TItan Season 4. For those of you who follow me on Twitter, you may have seen my middle son's costume already as I entered it in Pattern Review's cosplay contest. Here is an image from my entry (taken when I finished sewing it.) I made the jacket, pants and butt cape (which I drafted myself), plus drew the gloves. More detailed pics of our costumes:) For my costume, I made the cape, shoulder harness, leg holsters and skirt. The harness, holsters and the skirt are made of leather. (As I mentioned on Twitter, a good friend who works in...

 This is the first Halloween we've had that my family didn't Trick or Treat. Oh well....in the whole scheme of things, it really wasn't too bad:) My youngest still dressed up for school though. (If you follow me on Twitter, you might have seen this already:D I had to take pics before she had to put on the mask for school.) And of course, I had to match her! LOLZ How was your Halloween this year?
