Dress to Cami and Scarf

I've had this dress hanging in my closet for a little while now waiting to be chopped up. I haven't had much time for sewing recently, so I needed a quick fix.

I cut off the skirt, about an inch below the bottom of the zipper. I hemmed the raw edges and shortened the straps a bit to pull the front up and cover my bra better. And with that I had a great new cami...
