My goodfellas

When my fellas were youngerI could dress them as I pleased…It became more difficult as they got olderand grew notions of what they would

and

would not wear.

 

Well, Friday night brought the occasion of the Senior Banquet at church. The theme was “20’s ganster” and these two described to me their desired attire. I shopped a couple Goodwill stores on Thursday-Dollar-Tag-Day and found their wool suits, for $1 each! The real surprise was how well the pin-stripe suit fit my hard-to-fit fella – it was almost as if the jacket was tailored to him.Their hats (& the white tie) we ordered from Amazon. I stitched up the pocket scarves from my stash. (There were plans to make “wingtip” shoes with white contact paper, but the contact paper wasn’t in agreement…) I think we nailed it!
