I found this awesome Jailhouse Rock Elvis fabric when I was shopping for Halloween supplies with my Mom back in spetember. I almost passed it by since I have a closet filled with fabric I need to use. Luckily, Mom talked me into buying it. I am totally in love with the result and it was pretty easy to put together. Thanks Mom.
(The front is the orange and pink side and the back is the blue and green)
The Elvis panels are a plain cotton (the kind sold by the panel to make pillows), the sides and waistbands are stretch jersey. No zipper or buttons required and it’s very comfy. I didn’t use a pattern and it was my first attempt at a pencil skirt. Overall I’m quite pleased. It's probably the absolute best result I've had with freestyle sewing thus far.
Also it makes my bum look pretty fabu/bodacious. (Whichever adjective you prefer.)
Jailhouse Rock is excellent but my top five favorite Elvis tunes are Wear My Ring Around Your Neck, Blue Suede Shoes, Rubberneckin', King Creole, and (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care.
Yeah, I kind of love Elvis a lot. <3
