This is a 2-for-1 day thanks to Becca! Here's her piece...
A friend of mine sent me this with a bunch of other pieces to work on and I just had to redo it. The print was fun, but that collar...ooph! I don't really wear pink (redheads and bright pink don't mix terribly well), so...
...I decided to make this for my sister.
Lucky sister! Let's see Becca's transition!!
I went ahead and took the dress apart at the waist however this resulted in far too short of a top! Instead I cut off the top of the skirt and used that piece to extend the top and make it a bit longer. I cut out the neckline and most of the sleeves, turning it into a boat-neck with fun cap sleeves. It needed a little extra flair...
...so I covered some buttons with the extra fabric.
I couldn't waste all the extra fabric from the skirt, so I threw in an elastic waistband and gave it to my youngest sister.
Hello two new pieces from one not-so-hot piece! Becca, way to go - what lucky sisters you have to reap the benefits of your craftiness!! PS, I love their sassy poses too!! What a fantastic transformation, B! Looking forward to the next one!
