Coolest Easter Chicken Costume

We needed a costume for our Easter concert. I was given the task to make this Easter Chicken Costume . So I searched the thrift stores and bought a large man’s yellow fleece, which I then removed the sleeves and sewed together to make trousers using a pattern from a pair of pyjama bottoms.

Then we used a small babygrow which was yellow, added a circle of fleece and padding with wadding. Stitched that in place, I then proceeded to cut two more lengths of fleece the same length as my child’s arm. Cut v shapes in to them for wings and stitched on and added elastic at cuffs to stay on arms.

We made the hat from a old baseball cap, cover with a knitted yellow hat and stitched in to place and folded the front in to a beak shape and covered with red fleece added two stitches on eyes.

Feet were made from yellow washing up gloves, filled with wadding, stitched, and then stuck on to old slippers.
