Ponyo LOVES ham!

My 3 year old LOVES Ponyo and asked to be her for Halloween.  I used a classic Western style girl's dress, but replaced the typical collar with a Mandarin collar.  I made a pair of bloomers and added extra width for more poof.  I of course had to make her a felt ham to carry around since Ponyo loves ham.  The dress was red cotton from the local fabric store.  The fabric for the bloomers were a simple white cotton that I picked up from SCRAP, our local recycling store.  The ham was made from scrap felt I have had for years.

Super simple costume but she gets a lot of joy from it.  Also I hemmed it so there is something like 8 extra inches of length.  I think she'll wear the dress out before she grows out of it.  ;)


Thanks for looking.
