Costume Construction Crunch

Halloween is only a few weeks away. I just completed a muslin for the flapper costume. The fitting garment came out surprisingly well and is actually wearable. It is made of a mauve glitter two way stretch knit. The garment is made from Kwik Sew Patttern 3876. The pattern instructions call for a  1/4 inch seam but I used a 3/8 inch seam instead. One of the nice aspects of the pattern is that it is very versatile and can be made with only a yard of 60 inch wide fabric. I think in the future I am going to stay stitch the neckline and arm holes for a bit more stablility. I used a twin needle for the first time and will be using more in the future.    :)
