Day 23: Quidditch Is In Season
Welcome back to Laughter Jayne, and hello if your new here! I have in doing pretty good in my Harry Potter/Fantastic Beasts Challenge that I set for myself, which you can see more about here. I'm working on getting a Newt Scamander Wand DIY up, so we have a Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them project. Also, I should be building my bookshelves tomorrow. Yay!
I wanted to include a tutorial of my Halloween costume, I was a Gryffindor Quidditch Player. I based how I made this from this tutorial. The link for the original has some helpful pictures. I wore this with a black shirt, black leggings, and some brown boots. I also made the arm and leg guards myself.

8. Using the thicker ribbon on the back sew two v shapes from where the top of the slit to the bottom of the shirt.
9. Sew around the neckline with the thinner ribbon.
