Step 8
Once everything is dry, you might find that the fabric isn't pulled completely taut around the frames. I stitched around the insides of the frames, catching the edges of the fabric and zigzagging back and forth to pull tight around the shape of the glasses. Tedious but makes it look professional!

Step 10
(Optional) I could only find sunglasses with wide enough frames, and I wanted a pair of clear glasses, so I made a new pair of lenses from some plastic that I salvaged from the packaging of something I bought at the electronics store. (That packaging is clear, very difficult to cut, and strong, so I figured it would be a good substitute for real lenses.)
