Greg Wirt Costumes from Over the Garden Wall

My husband and I decided last year to make it a tradition to watch the entirety of Over the Garden Wall at least once every autumn, and this year was no exception When our friends brought up doing a costume contest for Halloween this year, we knew our perfect, seasonal costume: Greg and Wirt. I sewed the main components of our costumes Wirt s cloak and Greg s outfit from scratch over the course of two simultaneously long and short weeks. In this video I detail both the tedious, frustrating progress and the pretty decent results I learned a LOT from this project. Other than boxers in middle school and an apron a few years ago, these are the largest sewing projects I ve completed to date, and the first actual garments I ve done. For all the blood, sweat and tears this project wrangled from me, I m incredibly glad that it did it. The final results, while imperfect, were unbelievably rewarding
