I made a Panda Annie cosplay for a 5yr old!

That five year old is my niece/2nd cousin. (Without her face because I forgot if I was allowed to show her face or not...I did asked her mom)

Anyway, I didn't do much since she wouldn't let me cause she is a very hyper child. Kids. Duh! (Well most...) This was the first costume I've ever made with my bare hands! Dun dun duuuun! I suffered so much but I didn't prick my fingers...Yes I hand sewn it all. (I hated it and next time I will buy a sewing machine!) It is made out of foam paper from some arts & craft store, plastic table cloth from some party store, and that is pretty much it. I made the tiara/headband with that bendable wire thinger bleb...Whatever it is called and some foam.

I was going to add a Tibbers cosplay, her 9 year old brother was going to be him but it failed because he had to see his daddy who doesn't live with them. I did include the mask...Tibbers' teeth look like he needs brushing, well I didn't have the right colors and I didn't want to make it all white. Overall I was sad cause I didn't include much but I was happy because my niece was excited wearing it, showing everyone and running around. (Also this camera sucked!)

That's pretty cool how long did it take you to make and how did you make it?

In total it could have taken me less than 2 days but my niece had to visit her other family so It was difficult to get a nice schedule.

I took lots of measurements...With yarn. And I tried making a frame first using the foam paper and afterwards I cut out and stitched the plastic table cloth on the yellow frame from behind. And that is pretty much it. For the pants, It was all plastic table cloth. I cut out the right size and sewed it. I learned a lot and had fun!
