Bat costume with your own hands

Halloween is one of the most fun holidays of the year. And, of course, in order to look spectacular and bright on the holiday, you will need an appropriate carnival costume. From this master class you will learn how to sew a bat suit for your child with your own hands.

Master-class "Bat costume for a girl"

  1. Draw a template of one bat wing on a sheet of large format paper. Then fold the fabric you selected for the costume (for example, felt), twice. Of course, we take the fabric black.
  2. Cut out the fabric according to the pattern and unfold it - that's the basic detail of the costume and ready! Felt is good because its edges do not need to be processed, so sewing in the manufacture of a carnival costume "bat" is very small.
  3. Wings will be fixed on the shoulders of the child with the help of rubber bands. Make two loops of the correct size (preliminary fitting is required!) And symmetrically pin them with pins in the very middle of the upper part of the pattern.
  4. From the remainder of the felt, cut a small rectangle. Sew it in this place, passing the gum.
  5. The tips of the wings of the mouse are attached to the child's thumbs so that they can be easily put on and removed. For this we sew on both wings on a small ring of rubber bands. Thus, the girl can herself put on or take off the suit.
  6. Actually, this sewing is over. If you need to quickly make a bat costume for Halloween, it can be done literally in half an hour.
  7. The resulting masquerade outfit looks a bit dark, so let's decorate it. To do this, we glue the places of each fold of the fabric with two stripes of paint tape, and in the interval between them we glue sequins, rhinestones or sequins. When the glue dries, remove the scotch.
  8. This decor looks charming!
  9. And, finally, we will complement the suit with bat ears. Cut out from the same felt fabric two small triangles. White lines show the places of cuts that need to be made.
  10. We bend them, as shown in the picture.
  11. And sew (or glue), having formed from a felt a neat ear.
  12. Obtained ears should be glued to a normal black hair hoop .

The wings and ears of a bat can be used in conjunction with any clothing of black color. It can be an ordinary T-shirt and leggings, a dance swimsuit or any other suitable outfit.
