A Quick Refashion

I picked up a knit dress on clearance a year or so ago - it was fairly long, and more clingy than I'd hoped.
I cut it to knee length, thinking it would be more flattering, and it sat in my closet, until it got buried in the bottom of a Garments-Waiting-to-be-Refashioned Bag.

I pulled it out today, and decided to have another go at making it wearable for me.
I cut it way shorter, and dropped the front and back necklines, using the original folded hem to make a neckband.
I then joined strips of the cut off skirt to make a soft pleated frill.
Not a very exciting design, but I'll definitely wear it now!
