Polka dot Love

Hello there! My latest refashion started as this sweet 50's style dress I thrifted a few years ago...I wore it and loved it but alas my chest deflated after having 2 kids and it was just not comfortable to wear anymore:
So I decided to chop off the top and make a high waisted skirt:
I then decided to remove the zipper pieces from the cut off top, take it in a couple inches at the back, hem and add hook & eyes to make a sweet lil top for layering:

That's a great way of getting something new and useful out of an old loved garment. Good on you!
I am a sucker for Polka-dots too.
