I am crap at making things. Have no sewing machine.

Is it impossible?

get a picture from net. Got to charity shop and you might get lucky with a jacket and a walking cane and an old lady hat you can change into a Willy Wonka one! good luck!

I need a childs purple velvet jacket though - by thursday!

Hmmm, not the sort of outfit you have unless your surname if Fauntleroy!

Thanks kbear, but he'd never fit into a 12

YL Hi! I have thought about Charlie, and am trying to convice him!

Thanks MI, will put a call out for Blu!!!

YL, as a compromise I think I can get him to go as Mike Teevee. He has a cowboy outfit and I'll make him a golden ticket.
