Echo, the Boston Terrier, as a Walrus
This is a picture of Echo dressed in her Halloween costume as a walrus. She is a 7 year old Boston Terrier and we have been doing homemade costumes for her since 2006. She's an awesome sport. This costume was made from micro-suede, batting and linen fabric and sewn by hand, except for the fins which I did use a sewing machine for. My sewing machine couldn’t handle the rest of the costume, too bulky. The fabric was a bargain too! The batting was upcycled from my daughters old crib bumpers, the linen from the bargain bin at the fabric store and the micro-suede was 60% off! The tusks were carved from synthetic ivory by my husband with a dremel. Just wanted to share her pic, Happy Halloween!
