No sheet!

Yes, another dress I made out of a sheet, that I got at a garage sale. This one has gone under several re-drafts, and I even put in a zipper, I had no other choice!
If I could have foreseen all of the problems I had, I would have
done a few things differently. But, in the end, I am still okay with it, I will still be able to wear it and it did end up pretty cute. And now I know that what I had planned doesn't work, I can try again on another sheet. Of which I have two, that I got at
Goodwill, waiting on my sewing table.

Blue Straw Bag

This here I picked up at St. Marys goodwill, I like the pretty robin's egg blue and the natural look of woven straw, great for the warm seasons. I had been having second thoughts when I first got home with it, that maybe I have to many bags (did I say that?!). But after I tied that scarf (from the same thrift store) around the handle and took another look at it, it was a bag for me!

Yellow Gingham Dress!

This here dress is made out of the same sheet set that I made the Yellow Gingham Skirt out of, and I'm also lining a purse with it, will post that when I finish it.

I love the empire waist! This was also going to have a full
length skirt, kinda like a modern Regency Era dress, but after making a few mistakes in the cutting process (several really) I had to shorten it. With the feelings I have towards zippers, (avoid them like the plague) I made it with an elastic waist
band. And the red belt I got from Goodwill! (It is so funky!)
After much trial and error, it turned out really nice, I don't think I could be happier with it.
