This Zipper Will Work When Pigs Fly
I bought some fabric off Ebay a while back and loved it so much that I put in for another order right away. I made a shrug pattern the other day and knew I wanted to use this adorable flying pig fabric and maybe even make some matching panties. I took some pink jersey knit I had from a long time ago to line the hood and make the cuffs on the arm. But when I went to put the zipper on I encountered a problem. One side of the shrug would stretch and not match up. I redid the zipper 3 times and it only ended up making it worse. I may try again with another cut of fabric and pray once again to the sewing gods, that seemed to work last time. ;) The mini shrug itself didn't turn out too bad as a whole. As long as you can't see the bottom of the zipper where it doesn't match perfectly. I'm keeping it for myself since I don't mind the mistake and using it for a set for my modeling along with the matching sexy panties I made. Here are a couple of pictures of me in the shrug hoodie. I love it sooo much! WAAHH! Why won't it just effing work?

well, it looks super cute! I'm sorry it's not working!
ReplyDeleteOH cute!!! I hate working with stretch fabric grr. Have you tried putting in a hand pecked zipper? You get more control over the fabric that way.
ReplyDeleteI know nothing of zippers, but that is a hella cute-ass shrug!
ReplyDeleteSo cute, I want, I want, I want!
ReplyDeletecompletely sexy !!
ReplyDeleteI think you are gorgeous & very talented.
ReplyDeleteHowever, i don't think your weight is healthy.
You are a young girl & being over weight does lead to health complications.
Excepting your curves doesn't mean that you shouldn't try to get healthy.
I don't know you, so maybe u do lead a healthy lifestyle & i could be wrong. But i think its important for curvy girls like us to recognize that their needs to be a balance. This is a message to all curvy girls, if we want to lead long lives fully of fabulousness, we need to take care of ourselves too.
Otherwise, you are a true crafting inspiration and you are totally stunning. Red lips are a great look for you.
