RE-PURPOSING OLD CLOTHES

As of last night, all my cousins are all grown up and married! I have five cousins on my mom's side (none on my dad's) - three girls and two boys. The oldest just recently turned 29 and the youngest, 20, is the newly-wed. Well, last week my aunt brought over three trash bags full of hand-me-downs. Of course, most of these clothes had been stashed away for years and years, but I was able to pull out a few things. I found two dresses which I envisioned re-purposing into some better pieces.

First project: creating a bralette from an old dress.

Second project: creating a high-low skirt from an old dress.

Try this with any old dresses/skirts/shirts!

Sincerely, Mary Claire
