Hello Readers. I like dresses but separates can be a lot more versatile. When I saw this gorgeous dress I knew I wanted to take it apart and make separate pieces that I could wear in more ways.
I used a seam ripper to take the dress apart. I wanted to make a top and I needed the top of the dress by itself.
The dress had a zipper in the back. I sewed the back together and cut the zipper out . It is basically a sleeveless top that I pull on over my head. I also used my serger around the bottom of the shirt.
The shirt fit well but the neckline gaped open a bit. I made 2 folds at the neckline and pinned them in place. I folded the fabric over on itself to make the neckline smaller without altering the fit through the chest.
I sewed 2 buttons onto the shirt where the buttons were. It just added a little something to the neckline.
I can wear it with the matching skirt I posted about yesterday or I can wear it with other clothes. Thanks for reading along, now go make something fun for yourself.
