dress - repurposed





yep - it was a size 18 ladies skirt that I got from the opshop for $2.50..... Took about 10- 15 mins (excluding try on times....) as it was just taking in the sides (left the zip at the back) Most of that was spent on the straps, so would be heaps faster to just sew on some wide ribbon onto each side to tie at the tops....

When it's done it's dash as a dress, she has asked for it to be cut down into a short skirt - maybe with some tule underneath - easy to do!

(PS she HATES photos - and thinks I am taking a video, so is dancing - which is why she always looks so random! Not helped by the sticking plaster on her chin this week - she fell out of a tree at school!)
