In the meantime, I'll leave with you this photo of my sons in their bubble wrap suits standing next to DS#1's friend (friend, not girlfriend) in her Pokemon-inspired costume.
The jackets have hoods and snap closures and there's a working fly (no zip) on the pants. It was fun to collaborate with DS#1 on this idea, but I'm glad I don't have to sew bubble wrap every day.
While I'm on the subject, shortly after the guys arrived at MetroCon this past Saturday morning, they called to tell me that a lady had just walked up to them and told them she knew that they were my sons and that I had made their outfits because she reads my blog. How funny! (Whoever you are, please comment and say hi!)
Those suits are too funny. That you made them is incredible.
ReplyDeleteThey are really too funny. I hope that they appreciate what a great mother they have! But, I'm hot just looking at them!
ReplyDeleteOMG they must been hot, and not in a good way.
ReplyDeleteThis is the best project ever! But no way am I letting my kids see this post. I draw the line at bubble wrap suits...I think? :P
ReplyDeleteSo funny!!! Did they drive you crazy popping the bubbles while you were fitting them:-)
ReplyDeleteSewing can be fun!!! I love the suits. I hope they weren't too hot wearing them.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the suits!! Even my four year old son know the movie...(against my better wishes)....and you did a fabulous job!! Such a sweet Mom to do that for your boys!!
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie,
ReplyDeleteI actually told your sons to tell you "how much I loved your blog". They looked pretty stunned.
Hope they had fun. Their costumes were fabulous.
Melodie, the crazy costumer who accosted the boys
These are so cool, Debbie!
ReplyDeleteThose are hilarious! It's awesome that someone recognized them because of their suits!
ReplyDeleteGreat Job!! I bet they would have loved to roll around on the floor after it was finished and pop all the bubbles. lol. Might be a good thing for small children to keep them entertained for hours of fun.
ReplyDeleteCute outfits!
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog, and this post about the costumes. My husband, daughter and 2 of her friends were at the Tampa Metro Con, and saw your guys. My daughter was in costume as a vocaloid, wearing a long orange wig. Small world! Love your blog, and I love how your sewing table turned out.
