  1. Oh I’d forgotten about that Inspector Gadget! One of my all time faves!
    I kind of wish we did Halloween in the way the US does. Here, it’s very much witches and ghouls, yet it seems any costume is fair game in the states. Such fun!

  2. Yes! Dd sketched out the character/costume she wanted (hybrid Mad Hatter and White Rabbit) and I’ve finished the first piece, the jacket. It’s a modified Secret Agent Trench in upholstery brocade. Update to follow! 😀
