A couple of weeks ago the boys came home from school with requests for urchin costumes as the school is doing a whole school production of Oliver! Each year group is given a song to learn and those that want to get to sing in the show. All the pupils are involved in someway, from ticket production and sale through to back stage work. I was lucky that I already had an outfit that I could alter for Jason but I had to make Lewis' from scratch. The school also asked that the costumes were dirty! So I clean the house with them then put food dye onto the trousers. Here is the result.
Did your Gran or possibly even your mum have one of those plastic dolls that wore a large knitted or crocheted dress that was used to cover a spare toilet roll? Well that's what I have been making over the last few weeks. What do you think? If you like them they are available to buy through my facebook page
