Seeing Spots: Sheer Skirt to Summer Shirt

I scored this skirt for just $2 at one of my favorite thrift shops last weekend. I'm not loving the thin elastic waistband, but the sheer polka dot fabric is awesome! I think it will make a lovely flowy top for summer.

I chopped off the waistband, cut a collar and armholes, sewed the shoulder seams, and used remnants from another project to finish off the raw edges.

  5. Very cute! I like the bottom layers much more on a shirt than a skirt.
