Connie Put Your Clothes On

Connie arrived to me with naught but a vinyl cover to keep her dust free. Functional, but not too lovely:

Especially after I ripped it within one day of owning it. (I got a little excited showing it to someone and whipped off the cover with a flourish . . . and by whipped, I mean RIPPED.):
No matter. A few hours and a little IKEA fabric later I came up with this:MUCH better.

Since the cover was already ripped, I went ahead and cut it apart to make myself some pattern pieces and voila! Don't forget that decorative stitch on the bottom. ;) Those little details make the difference.
