I can tell you the head is just a giant rectangle with two circles, and the hat is another skinny rectangle with two circles we made separately, then cut the head to stitch on the hat. We've talked about re-making our Puft boi this year, so if we do, I'll be sure to document it better!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11888187687405622408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-72050222543822723102022-06-01T12:59:44.247-04:002022-06-01T12:59:44.247-04:00Would you be willing to share the final pattern yo...Would you be willing to share the final pattern you came up with?

I don't remember how many tablecloths that is around his head, but from my seams in the finished pics it looks like at least 5 or 6. And definitely sew versus iron: we tested melting them together and it makes the seams all wrinkly, hard to keep them smooth, and weakens the plastic. <br />Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11888187687405622408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-69771149855798291112021-09-30T00:16:17.799-04:002021-09-30T00:16:17.799-04:00Thank you!

He moved to a new shop. He was testing the chemical AND dry ice fog machines, opend the door and had all the neighbors call in a "fire". TO their surprise, the fire truck rolled up within 2 minutes. Why? THEY were renting the foggers to train newbies. So the neighbors would only call if we ran out of the building screaming.

I just did my first outdoor Halloween display and, after being out in the yard for the past week, two of my skeletons were stolen over the weekend. I brought everything back inside after consulting with online friends who said they mostly don't do decorations until the day of or the day before Halloween and take them down immediately the same night. Does your house do the same?thatgraygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11695100995042650041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-18269371119094782362019-10-20T16:41:32.631-04:002019-10-20T16:41:32.631-04:00I love this!

If you wanted to sure up your seems and you had a few dollars to spend, liquid stitch running along the actual seam may help you. It dries kinda rubbery and might air seal the seams for you. (Its what I used on my Sarah dress to sure up all of my seams on my bodice since organza likes to tear if you look at it wrong. Though I am sure it would require some testing to be sure it's what you need. Why do I always go for the expensive way of doing things?
