As luck would have it my sojourn with costumes has not come to a complete stop as first thought. The school presentation night is coming up and the year one's (N's class) are doing a song called "I wanna be a Superhero". Apparently, N is fixed to be Superman (along with several others) so, once again turning to trusty Oliver and s patterns for help, I am thinking of joining the Nature Walk pants with the Field trip top to make an all in one suit opening at the back and having the cape attached at one side with a piece of Velcro or press stud on the other shoulder to hold it on. Of course with the red undies, they will be sewn in somehow and an appliquéd yellow belt to make it look authentic.
I know lightning made a fab costume by joining two patterns into one, but do you think this combination would also work?
