When I was purchasing this
dress at the Goodwill the cashier asked me if I was going to be Amish for
Halloween, When I replied,
“no” she quickly said, “oooh…you just...like it...?” I get these questions a lot,
I should really start just playing along as if I love them… just mess with
these people’s minds…”Oh yeah, Amish is in right now…”
But in all seriousness, this dress fit me
like a glove, and beyond the hideous quarter length, poof sleeves, it had a pretty
basic shape. It all pointed to an easy up-cycle.
First thing I did was remove
the sleeves by ripping out the seams.
I then finished the armholes by folding over and sewing the
unfinished edge.
The last thing was shorten it, because it was a god-awful
length for anyone.
The finished product.
The finished product.
