DD's Twilight Sparkle Costume

[CoonhoundBetty]

My 4yo wanted to be Twilight Sparkle for Halloween this year I was happy to oblige!

Details first! At first, I was just going to use a pair of purple pants she had, and paint the cutie mark on...then I realized that the ears/horn I had made were a completely different shade of purple. Scrap that, and made pants from the same material as the ears/horn, and then heatnbond to attach a cutie mark I had made out of felt (then handstitched the smaller 'sparkles'). I used a stretchy purple headband, sewed the horn and ears onto it, and sewed strips of fleece to make up the mane. A bit bulky, but it ended up working really well since we had to trick-or-treat in the rain! At least it wasn't snow, right?

Pictures!
Just a plain purple shirt because I couldn't think what else to do...and I didn't want to make a sweatshirt from scratch as well.

Posing on Grandma's porch, ready to get our candy on! I love how she posed to show off her cutie mark

And now, time for bed and up early tomorrow for her Halloween party at school (16 4-year-olds...it's going to be utter chaos. Maybe I should have made myself a Discord costume??)

It was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. Pinterest has some really good tutorials--all I had to do was trace pants that fit her well onto some fabric and follow some instructions. Voila! MLP comfy pants! (I think she wants me to make her pants off the Mane 6 lol)

Such a well done costume! Honestly I think this may be my favourite of any My Little Pony costume I've ever seen.

Most importantly, though, your daughter looks like she had a real blast!

Too precious!  And she looks so excited, too.  I hope your little filly had tons of fun trick or treating!

[CoonhoundBetty]

Thanks everyone! My little filly is all tuckered out from the excitement! Her school party was today and she is totally wiped. Now she wants me to make her some Pinkie Pie comfy pants lol

Such a well done costume! Honestly I think this may be my favourite of any My Little Pony costume I've ever seen.
