"Truly wonderful the mind of a child is." Yoda and his new Padawan Ethan
Photo: Gramma Carol
My daughter had to clear out her collection of Yoda memorabilia to make way for the nursery. When her son was born in mid October, I surprised her with a Yoda costume for Ethan. At 14 days old he won the costume contest in the neighborhood. I took special care to use soft and hypo-allergenic material but the only homespun I could find was raw silk. His headpiece is sculptured with embroiderey to match the lines in Yoda's head with Janome's Easy Design software. No, Ethan isn't really standing next to Yoda, isn't Photoshop wonderful.
Pattern or design used: My own design
