How To Make A Monster's Inc. "Boo" Costume
When I was growing up, I was always a wee bit envious of the kids at our elementary school rocking homemade costumes for the annual Halloween parade. In fact, I remember really loving my friend Jennifer's hand sewn pumpkin costume in the third grade. It just looked so damn soft. Believe immigran...
Aww. Unfortunately the link did not work because it's tied to your private FB account. If you post the image publicly then we'll be able to see it. Anyhow, have a wonderful HALLOWEEN!

Hi Ashley, I believe I split them up for my daughter. I would determine the yards needed depending on the size of your child. GOOD LUCK!

Hi Jamie, I hope you receive this reply in time. For the crescent moon shape, the rounded part is where the teeth are sewn and the straight part of the half moon/crescent is the back part of the hood. I used SAFETY PINS to clip the corners, you can see this in a photo above .It totally stayed up well enough for us! GOOD LUCK!

Hi Shyanne, I just posted this for Leslie:
"To create the hood part of the costume, fold the pre-measured purple fabric in half, stuff with batting, and cut out a crescent shape."
If I can remember, I pre-measured my daughter and cut a piece of fabric the shape of a rectangle. Then I cut that rectangle into the shape of a crescent; half a circle and sewed it together. It's been awhile, but I hope that helps. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR COSTUME!

You don't have use Lamay. I did because of the shiny texture. I'm sure you can use any fabric that's a bit stiffer...

For the batting I honestly couldn't remember! For the crescent shape it was more of a moon shape.

I can't even remember how I measured out the hood part! I think I just eyeballed it and sewed the two pieces together! It was a very big hood so I ended up just plopping it over my daughter's head!

Brenda, I can't remember how I made the hood was made either. I didn't have special material to make it stand up, it just kind of plopped over my daughter's head!

Sierra, had you asked earlier, I would've just sent it to you! I donated the costume to a local charity center a few months ago.
