craftgrrl | Using Halloween to Fight Breast Cancer

So my Mother hates Halloween. As in loathes it. She doesn't like costumes, doesn't like to dress up, and pretty much wants nothing to do with the holiday other than handing out candy.

So you can imagine how thrilled she was to be invited to my father's corporate costume party. So we spent all month strategizing costume ideas and finally thought we had one nailed down that she could handle.

I guess I thought wrong. Cause on Wednesday night she called me and said "I've changed my mind. I think I'd like to go as breast cancer awareness instead."

Me: o_O (i.e. how the hell am I supposed to make that)

So after a serious brainstorming period (and a late night run to the fabric store) I managed to put together a costume that she could a) wear with her normal clothes and b) that personified breast cancer awareness
