I keep getting inspired (damn you pinterest)
and then I decide some of my clothes would work best with a bit of altering
and then my craft room has grown into an exploded disaster of half completed projects
The old shirt turned into purse: still have to attach the handle and add some finishing touches to make it pretty
The sweater: almost ready for the second armhole!
The skirt that has been stapled together one too many times
and then I went shopping
and fell in love with an adorable halter dress- except I want to wear it as a skirt. No problem. But that is how a skirt is stuck on my sewing maching in the middle of getting 4 inches hacked off the top
Oh and then I found another dress- beautiful fabric, way, way too short. So I've hacked off the top, and have plans to combine it with some other fabric and turn it into a classic circle skirt with some cleverly placed ruffles at the bottom
And then there's the sweater I've been wearing for 2 years that I originally thought- this will make for a clever wrap sweater, I just need to add a couple buttons or belt. Well I've got one and a half buttons added- wondering if I can get away with safety pinning it the rest of the way (but that is how I got into trouble with the above mentioned stapled skirt)
Love that my creativity is flowing, but Oy! Need a bit of focusing
This is hilarious... I have all these ideas and haven't even started one - so at least you get them going.
