Fall Colors

Hello Refashion Co-op. I am trying to work through the Fall clothes on my refashion rack. These two pieces looked like a good choice. The skirt is too big but it's a nice corduroy and I think I can make it look like this skirt  from Target. 


This shirt is such a great color. It just needs a little help.


I trimmed it down just a little. And stitched the neckline shut. It was gaping a little. 


The arms just didn't work for me so I also made it short sleeved. 


I made the skirt more of an A-line shape. I shortened it just a little too.


Here is my finished outfit. It was perfect for a Fall day.


Thanks for reading, for more pictures and details go to I Can Work With That.

  1. Looks great as an outfit together! It always cracks me up to see you sew right up over the waistband. I still haven't tried that!

    1. Chickie, my 1970s Home Economics college instructors would have failed me for much of what I do. Look at some men's RTW pants. Sansa belt are made to alter in the back seam. Just as yours is done.
