june's new giraffe cape!

I'm so glad I finally got to do this for my baby girl.  She has a giraffe blankie that she practically does everything with, so when my hubby suggested making her into the giraffe blankie, I got VERY excited.  A trip to the fabric store and a couple of hours later, I emerged from my sewing studio, proudly presenting Junebug's first mommy-made Halloween costume!  I wish I could've gotten a picture of her when she first saw the giraffe hood.  She knew right away who it looked like!

this is the giraffe cape laid out


The idea was that this would go beyond Halloween, and that she would be able to use the giraffe cape for play time.  I am so excited about this that I've decided to do custom-made giraffe capes for anyone interested.  Visit my etsy shop if you are in the market for it.  : )

I love it! What a great costume idea--easy to take on and off and versatile for playtime too (and nice and warm for October but not too hot). June looks thrilled so I think you hit this out of the park!
