Here it is after I took my scissors to it.
I put a new binding around the sleeves and used the cut sleeves to add the ruffle. I decided it would look tacky to add extra material on the bottom so I'll just wear it with leggings.
Another quick little refashion was this skirt, also a thrift store purchase and also too short for me.
I loved all the gathering on it is so I decided to turn it into a dress for the little lady...although she needs a new dress like I need a hole in my head! I cut up the sides and cut arm holes. Using the scraps I made binding for the arm holes and straps.
Its a perfect little sundress for her. One day maybe I'll see the bottom of that bucket yet!
love the skirt to sundress idea! This has inspired me to do some thrift store shopping!
