Sundress Refashion

It's been awhile since my last refashion. I was excited to finally break into the bag of clothes I got from my sister and her roommates and month ago. 

Sundress Before:

Sundress After:

I cut off the top and attached a new knit bodice. 
Then I added the lace detail to tie the two together. 

It was finished off with biased tape and a button in the back. 

Now if we could just get a day of sunshine she might actually be able to wear it. 

Hooray for easy refashions, hopefully they'll be some more next week.

    Well done! I love the thoughtful details you included. You'd never guess that dress's origins.

    I love the lace detail. Beautiful. Makes me want to dig through the cloths I just pulled out Little M's closet.
