Halloween Costume Countdown - Day 19

[vivien]

For the people who can actually sew, and not those of us who rely on the glue gun, patterns exist. Did any of you go to craft and sewing stores and hang out by the big Simplicity and Butterick pattern books while your parental unit wandered about shopping? I loved going through pattern books.

1952 Simplicity bunny, leopard and penguin costume pattern


1953 Butterick rabbit, leopard, lion, spaceman and panda costume pattern.


1963 McCall's bunny, cat and spaceman costume pattern.


Check out the versions of spacemen; they are pretty groovy.
