I am working on some Piggy ears, noses and tails this afternoon. The kids will have little piggy tails pinned onto their clothing.
The ears are going to be sewn onto headbands and the noses need elastic.
I think i may have about 17 to make. Other animals in the works too.

On the dress I have sewn many many leaves, and the salvage edge of the wing fabric to the bodice to tie the two together. Side view.
Back View.
Front View. The leaves have been sewn 2 thirds of the way down each leaf, this enables movement. Three different fabrics have been used, both the back and front of each fabric have been used to create more colour.
