My Endevour in Sewing

Today I am wearing my dress that I hemmed myself. This was my first attempt at hemming and although I thought the stitching itself was probably a little too tight for the jersey fabric, at least it was a straight hem. I'm thinking about altering it more and turning it into a paper-bag waist skirt, so next time I can tuck a jersey turtleneck or long sleeve shirt into it. I found an awesome tutorial on the Emerging Thoughts website (found here)

Today I put on:
skirt, originally a dress, thrifted ($1) cashmere cardigan, Dillards (gift) oxfords, payless ($15) necklace, Grandma's (gift) bracelet, Loemhamns ($12)

  1. I really love that you turned that dress into a skirt! I'm loving the print on it! Thank you for your lovely comments on my blog! I'm so excited to hear about other young girls that are married too :D

    Love, selective potential
