Oh darn! I didn't finish my witch for halloween but I will continue until she is done.

This is an EPB pattern. I have quite a collection of her patterns lol. There is so much to do for this witch, I had no idea.

I wanted to share the pieces parts with you and when she is all done, I will post her finished.

I used a tan fabric for her head and forearms. I didn't think flesh color went too well with her. Some of my friends did her in green and she looks fine too.

I made her body and arms and legs, the lower arms and legs are joined with a bead. I painted her face after sculpting it and used lots of glitter and tints of puke green and purple etc. I even smeared some glitter on her clothing. The arms and body are considered part of her clothing.

Here she is spread eagle waiting to dry. In the meantime I will make her organza coat, hat, shoes, vest. Frogs for her hat and shoes and god knows what else. I haven't look further for fear of getting overwhelmed lol....

body, head and forearms, check out the thumbs

I think she is so cool. It's a pity that EPB doesn't have colored pics for most of her old pattern (which are the best in my opinion). She would sell a lot more if she did.

Here are three more pics I am going to bed. There is no end to this witch hahahahah...she has on her collar and vest. I still have to make her shoes, hat, pants, coat, a cat, three toads,

Looking at her on the web, I see that I have to make her red cheeks a bit larger....
