Toile for final piece

I have made the toile for my final piece and I am making a skirt in a typical cheerleading style so I have still made links to my orignal intrest of America. I made 8 panels for my skirt, however when i finished i realised that it was to large and have decieded to remove one panel and gather the skirt into the elastic at the top of the skirt. I am going to add techniques on top of the skirt since I am including materials like chicken wire which will be diffucult to sew. I think i will use the glue gun the add techniques and then the panels which I can sew onto the skirt. In my sketch book I have taken photos of the toile and worked on top of them to show techniques I am going to use.
