Indian (Native American) costume

First I have to say that I am breaking one of my own rules with this one. I try not to ever mention to anyone things I make for anyone other than myself and my children. That is why I often go so long without posting my crafts. This time because I am short on time and supplies I will have to show the Indian costume that is for my Nephew. I do have on almost the same for my son but it is one I already made back when he was 2 or 3 years old. When I started this earlier in the day I wasn't planning on making more than one costume but because I found our old one that (just needed beads) I will take pictures on making one. VERY simple. This was made from a large piece of felt. Great thing with felt is it doesn't fray. This was a NO SEW just cut and bead project.
The felt piece is 18 inches wide and 4 feet long. It was the size I had so that is what I am using. The one I made up years ago is around 3 1/2 feet long and almost 2 feet across.
I folded the fabric in half and cut a large T so a child's head will fit in. I have a piece of paper under the fabric so you can see. The picture is upside down. The neck is at the bottom.
Cut away some of the T like this. Again a piece of paper is under top layer so you can see.

Cut some fringe.

using a bunch of pony beads that I already had and some denim thread and adding 5 beads on the needle at a time I went around the front.
Not perfect but DONE! My son is happy I hope my Nephew will be also. I will post my headband next.

I am going to look and see if I can find enough brown fabric to make ties for the sides. I might be able to dig up some string or something to tie the sides. If not I will add a snap to each side to help keep them in place on the boys.
