chicken and egg costumes??
I know J just asked this a bit ago and I think N2A had them....where did you get the Egg costume for your LO? E and his cousin are going as chicken and egg and he is the egg. We have some sewing skills but wondered if it already existed. We were hoping for a fuller looking egg, not the flat ones like I see on line that look like a fried egg.

so you sew the SS onesie on the front of the LS onesie, then they wear the LS one and the SS one is stuffed? Just trying to understand the approach.
something like that - melanie is the sewer so she can tell you more - I just conceptualize!

My brain must be falling out. what do you mean by "over the short sleeve"? Sew on to the front or put the ss inside? I KNOW you don't mean put the ss on E, then the long, then get out the hot glue
Hi everybody!
Not sure if this helps.....
