2007 AG Over 18 Secret Snarkster Project

This is the outfit I made to participate in the Secret Snarkster exchange on ag_over_18. My swap partner was supernonamegirl. I knew that she had a doll that was into high fashion. I got the idea for the top half from a pattern posted to ag_over_18 earlier in the year and half from a shirt I found in the Old Navy kid's section. I sewed some dark jeans with glittery thread woven into them because that's totally what Clint and Stacy would pair with it.

This is what I came up with. But check it out:

She looks pregnant. That's silliness. So, I took some cord and braided a belt to go with the outfit. Here, let's try this:

The whole thing.

I'd never used elastic thread before, but I love what it does.

I also made a matching headband, which is next to impossible to get into Ivy's hair. :-P

Another shot from the side.

The pants. Initially, these pants wound up turning my hands blue AND my machine blue. Bad news bears! I must've washed them by hand ten times, no exaggeration. See the silver? Cool, right?
