I can finally hem the skirt of my Sailor Jupiter outfit!
I posted about a month ago about my hemming problem. I originally put in a zipper that ended at the hip roll (last year) , which was not very functional. I couldn’t get the body suit onto my mannequin to hem my skirt which was related to the fact that my zipper was too short!
Thankfully, I really hate cutting out extra fabric in the case I may need it later; well I needed it later! I let out extra fabric from my skirt as well as the panties to make room from the zipper. The hip roll seam was centered in the back which also worked to my benefit.
I’ve been so focused on getting the majority of my outfit finished for this Friday I haven’t been posting much of the process. At some point in the future I plan on creating a “how to insert zippers properly into stretchy fabric” tutorial-ish thing, which is the process I had to use to properly insert this zipper!
