Homemade Fox Halloween Costume

I love Halloween so much that I decided to go crazy this year and make Indigo 3 different costumes! There's a bunch of Halloween activities this weekend as well as on the 31st, so he'll have the opportunity to wear each outfit. 

First up is this Fox costume I sewed using Simplicity Pattern 1351. I treated the pattern as a jumping off point and make several changes. The pattern uses fleece, but I wanted something that looked like fur but wasn't super heavy. I chose this Minky Luxe Cuddle and let me tell you...it is so nice!!! It's unbelievably soft and it feels like real fur. Indigo loves anything furry and soft so he flipped when he saw the fabric =)

I also made several changes to the sizing and added a lining for the hood.  

Overall I'm really happy with the way this turned out! Indigo loves the costume and I can stop smiling when I see him dressed up as a little woodland animal!
