This time, my refashion was for a special event with a group of girlfriends: A Chocolate Themed Evening ! Everything Chocolate, even the clothes ! Well, not a whole lot of brown in this lady's closet... So, what better reason to sew a new piece to my tastes !!!
First things first: gotta get some raw material. Off to Value Village (my favorite spot !). Here is what I started with:
A few ladies blouses in light fabric.
Here is what I came up with:
A very confortable and well fitting tunic just like this one. Even though brown is NOT my favorite colour, I will definitely wear this one again !
If you want to see more on the process, please stop by on my blog: sewliltime !
Peace !
