Woody and His Toy Gun Holster

My son loves to dress up in his costumes.  He has a bunch of them.  One of his favorites is Buzz Lightyear. A few weeks ago he asked me to make him a Woody costume and today I finally finished it.He had a yellow plaid shirt and jeans in his closet.  So I got some cow print fabric and went to work on his vest. I used a pattern I had and tweaked it to make it look like woodys. Here's how it turned out.
So he got dressed and we were off to the store to find him an old time sheriff gun.  3 stores later we found the gun!  I couldn't believe I had so much trouble finding a cap gun. Now he needed something to hold his  gun.  Well Woody had a holster so y'all know what I did at nap time.

Wanna make one for your little cowboy?


Supplies Needed:
    Cut out your pattern pieces.
    Lay the fringe piece on the curve of the longer side as shown in picture.
    Fold the shorter side over so the curves match up.
    Sew the curved edge.
    Cut the fringe in small strips from the edge up to just below the seam you just sewed.
    On the back side of the holster sew velcro as shown.
    All done!!!! Now go velcro it on to your cowboys belt.
