I have made Omari a Halloween dress every year since she was 3. I made this one from Simplicity 3902. The print is a lot of different candies and the words Trick or Treat and Halloween. It came out looking costume-like, which was something I had not foreseen. It's fine since it is for the month of October and unlikely to be worn thereafter. Omari loves it and she says she looks like a princess witch. You might think it's a waste of time, to make something that will likely only be worn twice. But, this gets handed down to Niece #1, who then gives it to Niece #2, who then gives it back to Naiobi. Actually, this hasn't happened with any of the dresses, but I already got back the Halloween dress I made for Niece #2 last year. That means I don't have to make one for Naiobi this year.

Reyna's Dress, this is the one Naiobi gets to wear this year.
Naiobi's and Omari's t-shirt dresses. Can you tell the the skirts were made out of past Halloween Fabric? I actually cut the 2005 dress apart and used that skirt for this dress.
