lightbluegrey: This year's carnaval

This year's carnaval

Making a costume for only one special day at school? I doubted it, just like every year. But on the day itself we use to wonder why being doubtful after seeing those happy faces. This year's theme for L is 'metiers'. She really loves to assist our cleaning help, so this is what she wanted to be.

She could clean the whole house right away! To start with the mirror...
Tomorrow is school carnaval. She insists on taking a bottom of soapy water in the bucket. I decided to go by car and not by bike...

It's made of only rectangles, so you can just rib the fabric in parts. I think this fabric does a big part of the tric. It was in my collection for some time already.; 09 March, 2011 12:53
