Hey y'all, Just thought i'd post some WIP pics to something my lovely wife Tina is putting together for my son Carl for a 18th fancy dress party for his mate. Car at first wanted the WillyWonker costume from the newest movie, but we had trouble finding the pattern. So! Carl opted for the male version of 101 Dalmations, "Cruella Deville" THIS IS WHAT CARL WANTS.... We took a visit to our local fabric shop, Abakahn. We were lucky to a pirate jacket pattern to copy from to create the coat. Tina bought some red satin for the linning, and a weigh of Faux Fur. we got a good deal from it. Currently ordered the black &white wig, and cigerette holder. Shoes & trosers from school wear. Gloves maybe from red satin. More to follow......

Well we're not sure now if Carl will be wearing this for his party, Today i got a call and I had to take Carl the hospital, he now has plaster on his arm after a silly wrestling match at school ended with a fractured wrist.

When has a plaster ever stopped anyone??? He'll have his party and have a great time, There isn't a more stomach wrenching moment when you have to take your kids to hospital, he'll back playing the piano before you know it Colin
