Coolest Shuttle Astronaut Costume 4

Homemade Shuttle Astronaut Costume
For this Shuttle Astronaut Costume I made a zip up sweatshirt/jacket and sweatpants from orange fleece. (Pattern for both at my local fabric store.)
I bought the patches online (just do a search, there are several sites which sell them.) There's also a US Flag patch on his left arm...they're available almost anywhere. I took the time to sew the patches on rather than iron them so that when my son grows out of the sweatshirt, I can remove them and iron them onto something else.
He used his black winter boots and snowmobile helmet to complete the look.
Since his costume isn't a jumpsuit, he can wear his COOL sweatshirt anytime he wants - part of his costume is still being used!
