Here is the update on Zira's Escape outfit. I completed it at midnight, but as you can see, I need to re-do the button closure. Looks like a rush-type job the way it looks, and I still need to sand and paint her boots. I am very happy with the way the outfit came out. I lost one cuff somewhere along the way--guess I'll have to whip another one tonight but I'll sew it down so it won't get lost again.
I got smarter with baking the boots! I baked them upside down on a stand I made out of tinfoil--it looked like a ring holder, so that as the boots baked, they did not flop over like the gorilla soldier's boot when I first baked it. When I took the gorilla boots out of the oven, my heart felt as flopped over as the boots I saw. Luckily for me, I was able to make the boots unflop--used a pair of forks for that--before the boots cooled down too much.
