Sewing For Sarah

Softie Sue LOVES to play dress-up so we have created some fun little costumes for pretend time!

The Snuggle Sacks Costumes are each made completely in one hooping with no other sewing required!

They can be made from colorful cotton prints or flannel.

The Kitty costume can double as a tiger or leopard by simply using animal print fabrics!

The Snuggle Sacks Costumes set includes:

Snuggle Sack Pumpkin costume for the 5x7 hoop

Snuggle Sack Bear costume for the 5x7 hoop
