Goodwill re-fashion part 2

The aforementioned trip to Goodwill also yielded this skirt. At a size 24, it was obvi too big for me, but I really liked the bold print of the fabric, so I decided to make a sundress out of it. (channeling warm weather here!)

In a couple of hours, I made this dress -- it's cute and comfy!

I was able to maintain the integrity of the original zipper and added the tie closure for the new bodice.

I put this slightly awkward shot up to show the 'scrunched' detail on the front. To do this, I zig-zag stiched a stretched piece of elastic to the inside -- when it releases, it puckers the fabric.

I'm pretty proud of my first dress re-fashion...especially because it only cost me $3.00!
