Elephant Skin Overalls


This has been the destiny of a remnant of grey cord ever since I bought it a while back.  I don't think any other fabric I have gotten has had so dedicated a purpose, or been used so completely by a project.  They fit well over a diaper but also work with undies, depending on how things are going.  The leg openings are loose so they don't constrict movement or sitting.  They are long enough to be rolled down a bit, but are turned up into bright blue LWI dyed cuffs for the time being.  The shoulder straps can be uncrossed, since they are held in place by a loop of ribbon.  The elastic at the back helps hold shirts down, and is less fiddly to dress than side buttons.  The only thing I should have added (and I always forget!) is pockets.  It might be too late for this project.
