Hello all!

I hadn’t heard about Refashion Co-op until Elizabeth Abernathy mentioned it on her blog. I took the Wardrobe Refashion Pledge about 3 years ago and I was gutted when it was announced to close but that didn’t mean I was about to abandon my pledge. I haven’t bought a single piece of new clothing in all that time. It’s hard sometimes, there are some beautiful clothes out there, but nothing compares to the compliments you get on clothes you have made yourself or snagged from charity shop oblivion!

I have a blog called Wipster (as in I’ve always got a few WIP’s on the go) which is full of my past refashions, some tutorials and other bits and bats that catch my eye…

This is my most recent refashion – I tend to buy things that have fabric that catches my eye and then sometime later decide what to do with it (there must be 1000 yards under my bed!)

I started with this too small, too long 70’s/80’s skirt…

…and made it into this cute A-line by removing and sorting the waistline and cutting about a foot off the bottom.

It’s not the most complex refashion in the world but there is a step-by-step on my blog if you’d like to take a look.
