And now for one of my favorite parts, a couple pictures I've received back from readers who used my tutorials to make this project themselves...

One of my lovely readers, Lauren, used my tutorial to make a tadpole costume for her daughter's first Halloween costume! She says she's not an experienced sewer but was able to follow along and was pleased with the results. Didn't she do a great job? 

Kristie from Maryland used my tutorial to make her little one's frog costume. Don't you just want to pinch those froggy cheeks?
