Last year saw a hoodie refashion. The girls outgrew an old Mickey Mouse hoodie that I couldn't bear to part with. Of course, it didn't fit me... but it could...
First I hacked off the zipper, because talk about a tight squeeze. Ugh. Then off came the hood...
A couple of W-I-D-E plackets to finish the front and S-T-R-E-T-C-H the front so it fit me. Even lining the plackets with interfacing left me with a pretty floppy front, though.
So off to my favorite button bin, where I found a pair of yellow buttons, just like the ones Mickey wears on his pants! Thank you, Momo! The last bit was a cloth covered hook-and-eye set, so I can pull it closed around my middle and not have to walk around with my hand in my pockets through the whole park. After all, what if I want to hold on really, really tight on Dumbo?
