A swing dress size XL, which did nothing good for me. I also had my doubts whether as to I could make the red/white checkered fabric look like something else than a kitchen tablecloth. But I like a challenge.
- I separated the bodice and the the skirt.
- I narrowed the bodice along all its seams, until it fitted me.

- The was a lot of fabric in the skirt. I opened up the pleats, and used the skirt as fabric for a completely new skirt.
- And then I stitched the to parts of the dress back together.
The finished dress. I like it quite a lot and it is perfect for the summer weather we have now.
Skirt with points at the sides. I added a few pearls to accentuate the points.
