Here are some of my newest SmarmyClothes projects! Can you tell I’m excited for Halloween?
Patchworked black knit with bleached skeleton design.
Jem and Holograms costume!
Patchworked black knit dress with SUPER long sleeves and a monster sized cowl hood.
This fabric has the raddest 3 dimensional effect. It got it from Fabric.com. (It’s called Cha Cha metallic spandex.)
Layered ruffle dress with slashed overlays.
Reconstructed Curse of the Mummy t-shirt I found at a thrift store.
Another reconstructed thrift store find!
Black flocked taffeta from JoAnn.com that I made into a tiered ruffle skirt.
Hoodie dress with glow in the dark print and mesh sleeve inserts. I heart glow in the dark!
Reconstructed spider dress with rag ruffle hem in spiderweb mesh.
Reconstructed skeleton tuxedo shirt!
Another thrift shop recon… and more glow in the dark!
Pleated skirt with an awesome skull and bones print knit fabric that I got on Ebay.

i really love the reconstructed curse of the mummy tee! have you ever done a tutorial or anything i could follow to make one like that of my own?
This tutorial is pretty similar:

Just use lace instead of elastic, and replace the sleeves with contrasting fabric.
I love your layered ruffled skirt above.
How did you make it?
I do ballroom dancing and think this might look good on the dance floor!
Do you have any other full skirts that might catch my eye?
Thanks,
Laura
Thanks Laura!

OMG you are amazing, I love everything that you have done on here.
I REALLY want to know how you went about the enormous cowl. I have been wanting to add a hooded cowl to a sweater for weeks and I can’t quite get it. This is absolutely perfect.
It’s really just a giant tube- like a super huge turtle neck. Measure from the base of your neck to your forehead to make sure it’s long enough. Width-wise I think it’s about 30″ around.
