Adult Ham and Swiss Costume - ST

Product Information

SO…I had this crazy hair brained idea to make Garrett be the actual ham from Green Eggs and Ham. I thought, I already know how to make the eggs and a ham since I made a small version for Garrett’s Sam I Am costume. I might as well give it a go! You can find the full DIY Green Eggs and Ham Costume instructions below. Jem says it's probably just Cecil. How can Cecil can see them in the darkness? The fat streaks in her ham are made with reflective paint. Mr. Tate arrives with news: he's found a pink dress, some pieces of ham-colored cloth—and the corpse of Bob Ewell, who's been stabbed to death. Let’s just say, I wasn’t about to attempt this crazy idea without some sort of pattern! I got out the brown craft paper and went to work.

Here are a few pics of how it should look once its all sewn up. Now it’s time to flip it right side out. Great thing about felt, it looks the same on the inside as the outside so we didn’t have to worry about what sides were together before we sewed. I had to draw out my ideas on my trusty ole notepad first! Here’s a little of my scribble scrabble… Can Scout take off her costume? She thinks so, but she's not wearing much under it. Jem has her dress, but she can't put it on in the dark. And then Scout realizes that Jem knows their stalker isn't Cecil, but he's pretending he thinks it is so as not to scare her.I want to make this costume with the least amount of cutting and the least amount of sewing. So, I took a piece of paper and cut out my idea to make sure it would work. Scout finally makes her way over the road, and in the light of the street lamp Scout sees a man carrying Jem, whose arm is hanging at an unnatural angle.

It's a warm but windy moonless evening as Jem and Scout walk from their house to the high school, Jem carrying Scout's ham costume.First, fold your fabric in half longways. This will give you the inner and outer piece to the costume. You will need it like this so the costume can be stuffed with batting. Now fold just like I did with the white piece of paper. There will be 4 layers in all. Two raw edges with a fold in between on the right and two folded edges on the left. I left a couple inches of overhang on both raw edges. Now you are gonna pin all along the top and sew it up. I used a half inch seam allowance since I added a half inch to my pattern.
