I’m making my son a Halloween costume with a cape/wings. The kind you attach to the arms so it waves about when you flap. Originally I thought I’d tie it around the neck with a ribbon but as he’s only 3, I’m concerned about the choke risk.
im now thinking I’m going to make the cape/wings and attach them to the top of the arms of a long sleeved top. I’m completely stumped as to how to do this as I can’t turn the top inside out to just adjoin to the existing hem. If I just sew them from the right side I’ll end up making the arms narrower and I’m concerned they’ll no longer fit my son. I hope this makes sense! Advice most welcomed
