Last I used a blue scarf I found at the thrift store to make his tie. The beads from the craft store 25 cents each. Fred was an orange linen table cloth and his tie a pillow case. I bought Rubber feet off the internet. It was fun to do this Flintstone costume but more fun to see how far my family will go.
Both the guys were in dresses this year! Had to keep reminding them to watch how the sit at the party! I used felt for the skirt. I simply traced an outline of a skirt, allowed for the hem and sewed it together. The waist is elastic. You just turn the fabric down on the inside, stitch it half way around, insert the elastic and stitch the ends together.
Then tuck the elastic under the turned down fabric and finish stitching. I cut triangles out of black felt and stitched them on. The strap is a piece of faux fur bought at an any fabric store. You measure from hip bone around the opposite shoulder and down to the back of the hip bone area where the strap will be.
The bone is a piece of felt with black zigzag stitching where I drew markings of a bone. You cut two slits through the strap and insert the bone. Stitch the strap and the bone to the costume in the front. Just put a large safety pin in the back, this will allow for any adjustments.
The hat is an orange hat from any store covered in the same felt as the skirt. I sewed the felt on but it can also be glued on with fabric glue. Then I cut triangles out of black felt and stitched them on. The bat is felt with brown zigzag stitching to look like wood. It is sewn like a pillow and stuffed with batting. As for his tie I cut blue material and then tied it like a regular tie. When my baby daughter was born she had lots of hair and I kept a bow in the top of her hair.
She was forever being referred to as Pebbles so the first Halloween that she was old enough it was time to dress her as Pebbles and it was only natural that her four year old brother be Bamm-Bamm. The only difference is that hers is not lined, makes it even easier. Wilma and Pebble Flintstones are now ready to party!

Since it was the perfect length I laid it out and cut the jagged edge bottom, and the added more of a V to the neck. Tip: When cutting felt make sure the scissors you are using are extra sharp, so they can cut through the thick density of the felt.
The next step is to accessorize the orange tunic you have created! I cut out rough triangles from the black felt, and then free hand stitched them onto the orange tunic. I figured it did not need to be perfect since it is supposed to look like it was made in caveman times. To make the blue tie I drew a tie shape free-hand on blue felt, and then cut around it. The tie is supposed to look over-sized, so you really can not mess up the length, either. The tricky part is that you need to know how to tie a tie!
His hair is parted and combed neatly like a business professional, and you could even have him holding a briefcase! Her outfit is a bit more complex, because I had to sew some elastic for the waist, but if you are leery about this, you could skip it entirely, and the costume would still look just as fabulous. Repeat the cutting technique, and sew the sides.
