There's a Problem With This Lining

 Hello Readers. This dress was cute and I liked the colors of the fabric. But the lining was not right. It seemed to have shrunk  Why did the lining shrink? I don't know. But it was not hanging smooth and it was not long enough for the dress anymore. I didn't want to wear it like this. What could I do with it?

Before and after. 

I liked the scattered stripes all over this dress but the lining barely covered my bum. That's not going to work in a light weight white dress. The lining was bunched up and gathered in a lumpy way. Ironing the lining didn't help. I decided to remove it.

 

I started cutting the lining out of the dress. 

 

I cut the lining carefully. I wanted to cut as close as possible to the seams but I did not want to cut the seams anywhere.

 

I cut and cut and cut.

 

I cut the dress shorter so it would be a shirt. I wanted to wear it but without a lining it would be very sheer, a shirt would be more comfortable (Less revealing.) for me. 

 

I liked it as a shirt. It was still just as great as the dress was.

 

Summer means shorts for me and this shirt is perfect with these shorts. Thanks for reading along, now go make something fun for yourself.
