LOL!! I swear, you people are BLOODY BRILLIANT.  I would never have 
thought to do that, and it would have been much cheaper.  I ended up 
buying a Gryffindor patch from ebay, but I should have bought that 
inexpensive child's robe instead!!  aagghh.  Live and learn, yes?
And, Melody, you really made me laugh about trying on the robe at 
Target.  If my nine year old son had seen you, he probably would 
have done the same thing.  Wait a minute, maybe not, because I run 
around here in my costume waving his wand and saying, "alohomora" at 
least twice a week.  Okay, scratch that though! :D  Anyway, thanks 
for the idea.  If my son wants me to make him a better robe later, I 
will get the cheaper robe and use the patch on that.  Thank you!
