Next week, Easton’s school is having a “Cowboy Day”. All the kids have the opportunity to dress up like a cowboycowgirl – this, of course, gives me the perfect chance to make something for ‘dress up’! We settled on a black cowboy hat, McCall 2851, and a couple of faux suede fabrics for a vest and chaps. Yes folks, I said chaps.
Needless to say, I’m putting my striped hoodie aside to work on this – I’m hoping that I’m not sewing this one up late (next) Monday night just to get it finished! Here’s all the details for this project:
Project Details:

Wow! Cowboy Day! That sounds like fun! Why couldn’t we have dress-up days like that when I was a girl? I guess it was too much trouble moving the stone tablets out of the way!
Anyway, that’s just the type of project I would have sunk my teeth into when my DD was that age. Have fun!
I don’t remember having any like that either! It’s definitely a more fun approach to teaching!
Oh that’s going to be fun! And cute! My son’s school doesn’t do anything like that, and mine definitely didn’t. 🙁
They’re doing a big Kansas day celebration tomorrow (where they get to make a cake, etc.) – it sounded like so much fun, I want to go!
How awesome is that?! How awesome for you, too. I love creating those costumes.
I’m secretly hoping they have more days like this.
I only remember dress up days for senior year in high school. I look forward to seeing your finished work on your little guy. Hugs
