For our Frozen costumes, I used and altered the McCall’s pattern for the cape, and altered Truly Victorian patterns for the skirt, bodice, and blouse. I then drew patterns for the skirt, cape, and bodice designs myself. I made each piece out of felt so it would be warm and wouldn’t need finished edges. For Kristoff’s tunic and shirt, I altered/combined several Simplicity costume patterns to get the look I wanted. I used a suede for the tunic with faux fur trim and a cotton/linen blend for the shirt. I embroidered felt for the sash.
