Newborn Snail Costume

Mums of newborns don't have much time to spend on sewing but this really simple costume means you can complete it between feeds. I managed to finish mine in an afternoon!

I used a hat that I knew fitted my child to help measure the size that I needed for the snail hat

Remember to make the snail body longer than your child as it tapers in at the end

Sew the bottom of the shell to the top of the snail body piece. It doesn't need to be neat as no one sees this bit
