Easy as Pizza Pie Costume

Quick, easy Halloween costumes, like this Easy as Pizza Pie Costume from Heather Mann, are great for last-minute Halloween parties!  Flavor your pizza costume what whatever toppings you desire!

Materials:

• 1 Yard each of cream-colored and tan felt (72" wide)
• 1/4 Yard of dark red felt
• 1 Sheet each of black, brown, and green craft felt
• One piece of batting, 24x24"
• Sewing machine
• Hot glue gun
• Velcro
   

Instructions:

1. Cut two triangles out of felt - one tan, one cream-colored; cut one triangle out of batting. My triangles were 18" wide and about 20" long. Adjust measurements to fit your costume wearer.
   
   
    
2. Use a bowl to make a neck hole about 3" below the top of the pizza. You will cut a line straight down from the edge of the pizza and cut the hole out. The resulting tabs are the place where the bib will fasten.
   
   
    
3. Sandwich batting and felt in the following order: batting on bottom, then tan crust piece face up, then cream-colored top piece face down. Sew around perimeter, leaving a 6" hole on the side of the pizza for turning.
   
   
    
4. Turn right-side out, being sure to fully turn the bib pieces. Use a pencil to push corners out, if necessary. Fold 6" unsewn hole under, and topstitch closed. Topstitch around perimeter, if desired, and quilt across the pizza a couple lines if you want.
    
5. Sew Velcro to bib tabs, with scratchy piece facing up on the right tab, and fuzzy piece facing down on the left tab.
    
6. Now for the fun part! Toppings! Cut out your desired toppings. Our pizza was combo-style with pepperoni and veggies.  Pepperoni: I traced a large bowl onto dark red felt for pepperoni.  Olives: I traced a small saucer and a ramekin with chalk onto black felt to make olives.  Mushrooms: I folded brown squares of felt in half and cut out mushroom shapes.  Green Pepper: I went for diced green pepper and just cut squares of green felt.
