You can also use this technique and make your own felt shapes and paste them onto a plain dress to make your version of this dress! Or use heat transfer vinyl, just cut out the shapes in different colors and iron them onto a plain T-shirt, sweater or dress.
The Harry Potter Robe
Get ready for Halloween with this easy to make Harry Potter Robe pattern for all sizes! And if you can find cheap fabric, you can make this robe for about 10 dollars, including the patch which I got for 3 dollars on Etsy. You know that the luxury store-bought robes are sold at 80 dollars!

Have some Halloween fabric scraps on your hand? Make this quilt as you go, super easy table runner!
Try and stick to a color scheme for this, 3-4 colors, and keep the rest neutral to give a cohesive look to the runner.
