I think my favourite parts of the pjs were my butt flap and burlap patches. I was originally planning to wear this costume on Halloween night so having proper traction was important when I was planning this costume out. Sam actually has full-footed pjs, but I decided to sew shoes to the pjs instead of using slipper padding because it gave me better and more comfortable support. I forgot to alter the pattern, though, since I’m very petite so the proportions were a little off (although that worked well for the kid look that I was going for). I ended up buying a Halloween costume pattern meant for animal full-body costumes. I bought materials for the costume back in July, but with work and planning and going on a trip to Disney World, I didn't get a chance to work on this costume until the fall. I decided to make it for the summer and fall cons of 2010 given that it's a perfect costume for the fall season. Sam didn't seem like that difficult of a costume. I take Halloween pretty seriously as I get really into the holiday so Sam was an easy costume choice for me. I absolutely love Halloween and I thought the Trick 'r Treat movie was an amazing creepy tribute to all things Halloween. It's something that I've been interested in trying for a long time. I've made a lot of different costume styles in my Cosplay career, but I've never attempted anything in a mascot style. I've been dreaming of making this costume since the summer of last year when the movie Trick 'r Treat was finally getting release plans for the fall.
