Peter Pan has got to be my favorite story of all time. Of. All. Time. If I ever go mad and deiced to spawn I want to start a tradition with my children including
Peter Pan. I love the character Wendy. I love the fact that she's maternal yet has no desire to grow up. In that sense I can relate. For a while I've wanted to make her costume from Disney's
Peter Pan because it could be easily recognized out and about on Halloween. I bought a couple patterns some time ago. I decided on one that was perfect and it wasn't even a nightgown pattern!
I used Simplicity 4055 and I combined aspects of both dresses to make Wendy's nightgown.
I used a light blue flannel because hello it's supposed to be a nightgown!
The pattern is quite simple. The only problem I had was the ribbon. It wouldn't stay in place so close to the girls. In the end I just sewed it on the front.
I think I did pretty good with this one. In fact I won third in a costume contest. Not bad if I do say so myself. :)
