Our Aunt R gave me this denim dress to reconstruct. She knows I sew and that I like to remake stuff. I love it when family members think of me and throw clothes my way to see what I can do with them. It makes it a fun challenge and I always like to show them how I transformed their garment.
Don't look at my knock knees! |
As you can see, I chopped it off too much and needed to add more fabric to the bottom later. I tend to be very impulsive when it comes to cutting. I need to do better. I don't measure, I just guesstimate, and then chop! And you saw my knobby knees, I can't afford to have my dresses too short!
I love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you Teresa! Just went over to your blog and loved it too. I am now a follower!
Deletevery cute. Love the repurposed stuff!
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's too short! Just wear a cute pair of solid opaque tights and you are good to go! It's lovely and so nice compared to the shapeless original. You really saw the potential!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mixymitzy! I decided to wear it the other day and didn't think it was too short after all, you were right! Thanks for the kind words!
