Sew a starfish costume with your own hands: pattern, diagrams and description

Sewing a starfish costume with your own hands is quite a feasible task. They do this in different ways. Someone makes a star out of cardboard. Some people sew a dress in sea green color and decorate it with multi-colored starfish, while others come up with other options.

Let's look at how you can accomplish this task.

First of all, how does a starfish differ from a regular one - slightly longer ends and the presence of suckers.

So, let's look at the costume options.

DIY starfish made from fabric

Option 1.

Take an elegant dress you have. It’s good if it’s in green and blue tones. If not, buy a new one and decorate it with beautiful gold stars at the waist.

Make a crown with a star on your head. A fabric starfish is made like this.

• Make a strip of fabric according to the volume of the child’s head, stitch it together;
• Cut out the starfish template and place it on a fabric, preferably one that matches the color of the dress.Cut, taking into account seam allowances, 2 blanks;
• Sew a thin padding polyester onto one part;
• Place the 2 parts of the star facing each other, stitch together, leaving a hole, and cut out. Make a cut in the corners so that the fabric does not tighten;
• Turn it onto the face and straighten all the corners with a sushi stick, sew up the hole;
• The star is ready. Now we sew it to the headband.

Option 2.

The starfish costume, the pattern of which is attached below, is very simple to make.

It consists of leggings, a T-shirt, a cap and a large star that fits on the child.

What you will need:

• Red material, possibly with glitter;
• Thin foam;
• Glue;
• Red or white felt.

What is this suit and how to take measurements.

This will be a red star made of fabric, reinforced with foam rubber with a hole in the neck area. The cap on the child's head will play the role of the 5th end of the star. It is made of the same fabric and reinforced with foam rubber.

Circles with a hole inside made of white or red felt are glued to the bottom ends of the star.

Costume making master class:

1. We take measurements. We need to measure the width from wrist to wrist of the child with his arms spread to the sides. The second size is length: apply a centimeter just below the knees and up to the shoulders.
2. We lay out the foam rubber on the table in half and draw a star, taking into account the taken dimensions.
3. Cut out a five-pointed star.
4. We put foam rubber on fabric folded in 2 layers and cut out the same star, but taking into account seam allowances of 2 cm.
5. Sew the shoulder seams on the fabric. We sweep the foam rubber from below together.
6. We fold the seam allowances onto the foam rubber and sew all the corners of the star except the top one.
7. We cut off the upper end of the star to the shape of the neck.We should still have a hole for the head.
8. We process the neck with a facing.
9. From the cut end of the star we make a cap for the head. Try it on so that its height on the baby’s head is equal to the length of the other ends of the star. Sew, process.
10. Cut out small circles with holes from felt and glue the stars to the bottom of the arms.

The suit is ready.

Option 3.

It is a jumpsuit in green and blue tones (or leggings with golf), to the sleeves of which green and blue satin ribbons are sewn, knee length or lower.

You can sew a skirt from white tulle and gather it with an elastic band.

A hoop with a large starfish sewn to it is put on the head. Golf can also be decorated with stars.

As you can see, everything is not so complicated. The main thing is desire, perseverance and the result will definitely please you.

And the child’s eyes glowing with delight will be a real reward for the time spent.
