Handmade to Hulimade

I thrifted this handmade dress today for $1...it was rather big but I fell inlove with the fabric & knew I could make it my own:
I decided to make it into a maxi skirt as I only have acouple...It was very simple: I removed the zipper, cut off the top, stitched the back opening closed, added elastic & edgestitched the new waistband casing shut..It can be worn at the waist with flats or lower on my hips with wedges...
                                           I also found it can be belted & worn as a dress too:

Both options are great, but I do really like the belt / dress combo!

I do that to my maxi skirts all the time - hike them up, belt and wear as a dress :)
