empress dee Clove Boheme IRL I'm wearing arm-warmers (detachable sleeves) with my t-shirt, which are actually repurposed leg-warmers but worn on arms. Sparkle acrylic ribbed black knit. Comfortable and does the trick! ❤️👽 I do not wear that kind of thing, but it does sound comfy. Someone I know wears animated hoodies and onesies. They are a cute sense of fashion that even though its best worn on Halloween, it does serve as entertainment or decent pajamas. I'd get a onesie just for the sake that it could be worn as pajamas.
I thought that onsies were a type of pajamas. Well, they were for my son, when he was an infant.
I sewed a onsie-type cat costume for him (for a Halloween party) when he was around 6 years old. I didn't have much money, so I bought blue plush car-seat covers from the Salvation Army, and changed the paper sewing pattern, to fit the fabric -- I joined top and bottom half sections of the onsie, before sewing it all together, making sure the nap faced in a similar direction. I also bought a similar tone of blue felt, and for the tail, I alternated strips of felt + plush to make an interesting striped tail. I used the blue felt for the tummy section -- like a long oval -- which saved on the blue plush fabric even further.
I also bought decorative puffy glue paint, and beaded extra decorations on the blue felt tummy, tail and handmade mask I created for him. Luckily he was at an age where he didn't mind this kind of costume, and even called himself "Meow-x" for his own name of "Alex."
The following year I sewed him a Batman costume, and later a T-Rex dinosaur onsie-type costume,(very cool lizard-like markings on the fabric) with a very realistic tyrannosaurus rubber mask. Grrrrr!
I'm wearing my detachable sleeves with my short-sleeved T-shirt right now, and although my significant other says, "You shouldn't be cold!" my arms disagree with him. I have the right to bare arms or cover them with arm warmers. Snuggly and sparkly at the same time. cat_3nodding |

Those embroidery basics can really take you far! When you combine these with appliqué and beading, you can get quite creative. Keep it up, and grab yourself an Embroidery Dictionary that you can refer to, as a visual reference for specific projects.
I created quilted & embroidered Christmas stockings (decorations) years ago, and it is great to pull these out year after year to enjoy every Christmas. My mother made some for us as children -- out of felt, adorned with embroidery and sequins. So I wanted to continue this tradition, with some sewing techniques I learned along the way.
And the more you work at it, the better you will get. I remember the first embroidery sampler I created -- when I was around 17 years old -- which was a head shot of a cartoon guy on a faded blue T-shirt. I created the drawing, and selected embroidery stiches that would suit the design elements best -- such as buttonhole stich for the eyes, feather stich for the hair, and the chain stitch for outlining the face.
It was my first attempt, and by practicing on an old T-shirt, I had nothing to lose. xD Such fun! ❤️👽 |

This sounds so cool! Like you could probably make Halloween costumes, really good ones. I had some great Halloween costumes as a kid that were made by my aunt. I might not have the patience for sewing and such, but I sure do appreciate the people that do. |
