I fell in love with the print!

Hey me again ;) I bought this skirt for $5 from the Sallies...it was a sz 20! but I loved the print and knew it would make a sweet dress...

I decided to keep the elasticated waist as the top of my strapless dress so I cut off the excess fabric from each side and the bottom. Then I made ties from the piece cut from the bottom of the skirt & saved the blue crochet trim from the old hem for my stash. I sewed up the sides adding the ties in the side seam under the bust, overlocked the seams then gave the hem a skinny rolled hem.Then I tried it on and found it now fit me perfectly as a skirt!

That was a total fluke! But an awesome one ^ _ ^ The long ties wrap around and tie in the front. And here it is as I intended it to be... worn as a dress

I'm soo happy I bought it as I almost put it back! Wearing it this way I've wrapped the ties twice around then tied a bow at the back

I'm loving Refashion Co-op by the way! It's awesome to have a place to share with like minded individuals =)
So keep up the amazing work ladies =) Peace out Huli
