Here is what I worked on today. First up is another upcycled dress:
I hit the Salvation Army store on half price Wednesday. I picked up a very large woman's shirt. I used a knit dress that we already had to trace an outline of how I wanted to cut it and then kind of winged it. I am very happy with how it turned out. I bought two more shirts (for $1.50 each) to play around with. I had planned on adding an applique to the front of this one but I liked the fabric just by itself.
Then some of the knit fabric that I ordered off of Etsy arrived, along with the fold over elastic that I ordered. This was my first time using fold over elastic. I really like it. I will definitely be using it more in the future. They didn't carry it in Joanns but I was able to find a ton of really cute colors and patterns on Etsy and Ebay.
