And now, a few easy costume ideas and accessories - Since many of my readers have kids or grandkids, I feel you'll like a few Halloween costume ideas.

A Few Costume Sewing Projects

If your kids are like mine, they love to play pirates and knights. That's why we have had two pirate outfits and two knight outfits. And a countless number of improvised pirate and knight swords. While I have not yet managed to post the sword template and tutorial on the blog, there are plenty of knight and pirate ideas here. Let me list two or three most popular ones here, so you don't need to search the entire site for them:

Easy DIY Knight Costume

What you get is two tutorials, for two ways how to make a knight costume. - Make it the way you like it! One is a no-sew, and one has sewing instructions included. I've sewn one knight tunic following this tutorial and using fabric, and my kids love it too!
