Re: Pennywise Halloween costume *Makeup Pics added - need suggestions*
Well, my colored ruffle and 2/3 white ones are already done. I bought colors that were as close as I could find in the fabric store, going by the photos I saved on my husband's iPhone. I just used cheap slip-ons that I got at WalMart(refer to the earlier post about "plimsoles" - these were the only things that looked remotely close. The ones in the screen cap still look more like tied ballet shoes than clown shoes. My actual clown suit is almost done, other than fixing the hems that I duck-taped last weekend and the stripes on the ankle ruffle. I have to add the top collar ruffle - I had plans to do that before, but didn't have the time with the Great Sewing Machine Jam of 2010. I also have to finish the vest. I'll still probably use the same velour on it, as I've never seen that kind of material before. I never noticed that there was a third stripe, going around the outer edge of the ankle ruffle. Do you think it's the same green/teal as on the sleeves and ruffle? I'll probably get the same shade in 1/4" ribbon and use the same pink(as close as I could find to magenta, which is what I thought it was) that I used on the sleeves. So should the one on the outside be black or another color? Also, I used a ProKnows nose, the M1 I think. Now what I really need is some help with smoothing out my bald cap. Someday I'll have to find longer faux fur, but that's the problem with buying it online.
