Day 176: Cranberry Sauce Dress
I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season. 🙂 Whether you’re spending it with your family, your chosen family, or your fur family, I really hope you’re surrounded by the ones you love!
I spent today with Fella and Gypsy, baking cookies, and being lazy (so nice!).
I wanted something comfy, but still pretty for our very casual Christmas Eve! I dug out this $1 find from my to-be-refashioned bin. 🙂
At least it has pockets! 🙂
Alrighty! This is obviously waaay to big on me. Luckily, all I needed to do was make a few amputations!
I wonder what I’ll do with these guys…:)
Triple Chop! 🙂
I took that bottom piece and turned it into an obi-style belt to give this dress a waist. I left the sash part super-long…just to keep things interesting. 🙂
Still digging those pockets! 🙂
As you can probably surmise by my lack of a jacket, it’s still ridiculously warm here. I’m definitely not complaining…I loooove warm weather, and hate being chilly!
Cheers!

I really love the belt idea! Looks fantastic! Still not 100% sold on the neckline but the rest of it definitely!
The dress is soo cute! Love the blog. I read it every day. Happy sewing and refashioning in 2012! Merry Christmas from Australia

Wouldn’t want a chilly Jilly! Here in SoCal a lot of people have fire going in the fireplace because it’s Christmas but it’s 80 degrees. Maybe they turn on the air conditioner so the fire doesn’t get to hot. Anyway, I’m with you. I love warm weather and thanks goodness. We both live in very warm to hot climate. Merry Christmas!
I love what you have done with this dress! What you did with the waist is really creative! Will definitely be on the lookout for something like this when I go thrifting tomorrow. Great job! Oh, and I was SO glad that it wasn’t too cold here in South Carolina. I hate the cold, but love things like cardigan sweaters to add to an outfit! Hope you had a Merry Christmas!
You are so talented! You make it look so easy and fun!
You could turn the shoulder pads into some rockin’ epaulettes! I love your refashions. So so Awesome.
