I thought this could be one of those show off my creations and throw in the odd idea about Kids, budgeting,cooking and life in general so here goes...

| Driver Costume |
My current project is a Thomas The Tank Driver outfit for Mr 7s book day, I shortened some largish size 12 overalls and used the extra fabric and some other fabric I had lying around to make a matching hat from a pattern I got here http://sewing.craftgossip.com/
Im not as good at sewing as crochet but it turned out OK, it was a bit tricky sewing with the thickness of the hat layers. I had to patch some pieces together as the pant legs wernt wide enough, and I didn't have interfacing lying around, but the fabric being stiff enough didn't need it. I also made the back band a contrasting colour which I thought looked cool

| Train driver hats |
I made another hat in the smaller size for Miss 2 from jean material after that because it was so much fun and always wants the same things. I made the box pleats a bit bigger to fit her smaller head. you cant see from the picture but they are both reversible with a colourful printed fabric on the reverse side.
That's the hat done next for the Train part BRB....
