I finally got the little pantsuit finished. I ended up putting in a separating zipper instead of frogs or toggles. I almost tho't I had bit off more than I could chew :bang: I couldn't get the darn thing to come out right and had to re-do a couple of times :bang: :bang: It's been a long time since I have done any serious sewing and forgotten more than I will ever know again! :bluesmile

Anyway here's a pic, would appreciate your opions. Do you all think the suit is saleable?

saleable, yes! But wouldn't you want someone you know and love to wear that? It's gorgeous!

Oh yes Andrea, but the sad thing is I never had children so, therefore, no g-children. And for the rest of my relatives, there just aren't any small children.

But it's o.k., I still like to sew for the little people, I just hope I can sell the items. :smile:

Ohgal-it is so very sweet! I love it. Definitely saleable! You did a great job and I really like the zipper added rather than the frogs.

Still, the emphasis is on Gorgeous. :) Where do you plan to display it for sale? You put a lot of time and creative energy into it. I hope you don't let it go for cheap!
