Brissy here i come!

I started with this gifted dress, very slinky, lots of lycra, but a boat neck! sooooo 80's..nope dont like it
Op shop find striped tshirt, perfect fit but ...I need a new dress
Two  cuts and one row of sewing and I'm there!! Mary the model is way tooooooooo skinny for this dress!!!  It looks like a sack on her tsk tsk

Lol I know more dodgy pics...but I'm working on it, and very happy with the way the dress has turned out
Wait there's more ha ha

I chopped up a belt to wear with it.
I'm going to Brissy for my sons 30th birthday, in a few weeks, this is the reason for the dress. BUT I wonder if its appropriate for a 30 pub, pub crawl lol and will I get any further than the fifth pub?? Nope I doubt it very much lolololol!!! Wish me luck... hiccup!......Di

Tshirt Love

This tshirt was gifted to me, but the bows didnt do much for me
I cut them off and added two buttons


And used the left over for the ruffles.


I love this style


another from the stash

The bottom section of this one, was made from a tshirt which was too short, I cut it under the arm pits, added a polka dot yoke,(left over fabric from a girls dress) and some black ribbing under the bust,  added a ruffle, and buttons and re-attached the sleeves from the original (too short tshirt)


And this is all I have left of the 'too short!" tshirt...the end lol
