Obviously, she is going to be Little Red Riding Hood this year. She also likes to tell everyone we see {including the employees at every store we go to} that "mama is going to be grandma, and daddy is going to be THE BIG, BAD WOLF"! {She says the "big bad wolf" part very convincingly.} We're going to have to get a little more creative for those costumes!

The dress was made with the Chloe dress pattern from Whimsy Couture.
I used red gingham fabric, red polka dot fabric, and basic white for the ruffle, straps and bottoms of the skirts.
I love that pattern, it's so doable {that means a lot coming from me!}, and I love how versatile it is.
You can see my summer dress version here.

We made the hooded cape using McCall's cape pattern {number M2854} and used a basic red cotton fabric.
The basket was found at the thrift store. All we needed was a white shirt, tights and Grandma bought her some "parkly" red shoes to complete the outfit! Tied in some red ribbon in her hair, and now she's good to go!
