Well, I still had the entire skirt of this dress left over as a scrap... I love the material so much, so I made a super quick kimono.

| Going for a cocoon shape this time... |
I sewed at the white dotted lines, cut the entire (top) scrap piece down the middle, finished the raw edges and wore my new kimono out for a chilly Spring day.
2 very similar refashions, yes. Maybe too much of a good thing is good? ;) I can't decide which one I like better... so I'll just wear them both. Why not?

Both look great, and although they use the same fabric, each has such a unique style that I would keep them both.
My thoughts, exactly ;) Thanks, Catherine.
Not too much of a good thing at all! They both are very awesome! Great job!

Nothing wrong with your idea to wear/keep them both; I'd do the same!

Incredible refashions! The 2 pieces look different enough for you to keep them both!
I love kimonos! They're such an easy thing to refashion from a large skirt, especially when there are so many ugly skirts out there with lovely fabric. Great job!
