Elephant Dress
Here is my spoonflower elephant dress! Now to get some great pictures taken and put together my sewing kit. I timed the process and the whole project should take 2.5 - 3 hrs, including the cutting. I couldn't find a zipper anywhere near the color of this fabric. I don't even know what to call this color. Anyway, I just used a cream color and I think I hid it pretty well. I used this method of installing a zipper using a glue stick and it turned out really well. It's the first time I didn't have a nasty pucker at the bottom. I am slowly learning to be a patient seamstress! Things turn out so much better when you take your time and really try to do things right.
