Awwwww!!!!

OK ... admit it ... this is pretty cute! right?

Cuter, still, modeled by an actual baby.

This was a licensed costume I really enjoyed working on.

Even though I am copying official characters, I have to come up with a design and plan that will work for the situation. In this case very small babies.

So, I simplified things. You can read some of the choices I made to make these costumes work but not be to complicated in the upper right corner for this sketch.

My sketches had to be sent to DC comics for approval before I could start actually making them. Which I will talk about in my next blog post.

Here are the photos I took before sending these costumes in. You can see how the boots are sewn to the tights and see the snap open crotch for diaper changes better in these photos than the one on the envelope.

Same for Super Girl.

And we decided to make Bat Girl really girly ... all pink and pink.

There are two hats there because I made it up in two sizes to ensure a good fit on whatever baby model was used.

Next time some sewing pictures.
