Dress Refashioned

Dress Refashioned

Carolee had this old semi formal dress that she never wore.
The fabric was real real pretty,
but the dress was out dated, and too big.


(These pics arn't the greatest... it was too dark, but before pics are supposed to be bad right?)

Sooooo...

I turned it into a skirt.
A really cute skirt with a black waist band,
and double front bow.







It's definitely a huge improvement.
and so so cute,
especially with her growing baby belly!
