~MODEL SHOT ADDED~My first zipper! **S&S**
I got this pattern today from Sewzannes and thought I would try it out. Not perfect by any means but it turned out ok. This was the first zipper that I didn't totally booger up so I am happy. PRR stripes with some JoAnn's knit remnant and gripper feet
The applique is like the ones Hastings was selling. After she saw a post where I was asking about them she found some on e-bay and sent me the link since she didn't have anymore to sell. How awesome is that?
Anyway, I hope this fits ds. It looks a wee bit big. I will try to get some modeling shots tonight and edit them in if I do. Thanks for letting me share.
**ETA modeling shot** Ethan wouldn't stand up so I set him up on the counter. You can see that he is getting into the remnants of easter in that basket there. He had just quickly shoved a jelly bean in his mouth when I shot this pic. LOL.
