Step 5Putting the Dress Together

Putting the Dress Together
1.  Sew the skirt under the petals of the dress.

2.  Right now, the bodice isn't closed yet.  Put in an invisible zipper.  You will probably have to cut into the dress to extend the gap from the bodice.  Here's a good tutorial on invisible zippers: sewiknit.blogspot.com/2006/03/invisible-zipper-tutorial.html

3.  And your dress is finished!  In the photos I uploaded in this step,  I made a mistake with the gray skirt in having it go all the way around when the part that is under the white in the bodice is actually supposed to be cut out, so the gray circle skirt isn't a complete circle.  I fixed this later on and you can see the results in the later photos.
