Monty (apparently) needs a Bowser costume. I purchased Princess Peach for me, and Mario and Luigi for the kids, but a minimal and wearable Bowser doesn't seem to be available off the shelf.

I need 9 more spikes, and that part is slow going. I am pleased with how the edging helps it hold its shape, and generally pleased with polyester upholstery batting (the stuff in sheets) as a building material. I am slightly dubious about the spikes, and unpleased with the fact that it's slightly smaller than intended.

I'm stopping here for the evening while I consider whether this spike is nice enough that I want nine more like it.
