Can I stop faux fur fabric shedding?

I should just explain to your GD that it's the time of the year when sheep moult

I have a wee 2.5 .yr grandson who wants to a be Dr right now. If you go into his house you get your blood pressure taken.
I have been asked my his mum to make some theatre scrubs more work and I haven't done any shopping yet.

I have just got some old sheeting out of my stash of the odds and ends in my loft to make a template.
Grannies work is never done.

Unfortunately, grandad's stripey shirts went to the charity shop when he retired (and would only reach our shepherd's knees, if that anyway).

I always have a stash of fabric, yarn, bits and bobs, buttons etc but never quite the ones I need

Jalima1108 if you have time and a few charity shops close by may be lucky if someone has sent in a stripy summer dress or shift. Perhaps a friend or neighbour has a candystripe sheet in their ragbag. Best of luck with costume.

Thanks!

Candy striped sheets went ages ago too.

Sorry about the hair lacquer post, the fire risk with a child didn’t occur to me.

If you need an animal there are many animal onesies around that would fill the bill, not too expensive, and continued use after the event.

Recent experiences with faux fur fabric..... I thought the cats were bad but this was 10 times worse!

Teabagwoman - oh that took me back years! I was Mary's Little Lamb in a Christmas play in Junior School. Most Mum's would have just bought a lamb face mask and perhaps made a woolly jacket - no - not my Mum. She spent hours shaping wire coat hangers into a realistic version of a sheep's head then covered it with a sheepskin rug one of my Aunts had given her. On the night I was boiled alive in my costume and must have given the little kiddies in the audience nightmares - it was quite realistic!
