Turquoise vintage dress refashion



This is a dress I refashioned from a vintage silk dress I found in a refashioning bin a couple of years ago. I love the colour and the fabric and actually I liked the style too except for the lovely sweat patches under the sleeves and in the neck. So that had to go. It is now a bit of a party dress.
Over on my blog you can also see the Jane Austen dress refashion I made (with tutorial) out of a skirt and a blouse.



If you want to check out a couple more pictures they are now on my own blog.
I used to have the refashions on Grey Duckling but this blog is now exclusively for lace, yarn and my husbands illustrations, which of course you are very welcome to visit too!

Take care,
Eddie
