Retro Redo (episode 3)

In the beginning of last school year, my amazing geometry teacher, handed me two dresses that she didn't want any more.  Well I took them and 10 months later I finally did something with the first one, the other is still in the process of being "remade".  When I tried it on even though the color looked good I just couldn't see myself wearing it, and couldn't think of something to make it in to.  Until I looked at my sister.  She was smaller than me, so that meant that, I could use the material more easily and that's how it all started...

I put it on her, and it was perfect.  (to big for her = Perfect!)  Definantally enough material to use for her.  So I went to work with my machine and shirred the waist and did a couple little tricks with my serger, and sure enough!  There it was an adorable skirt perfect for summer, and great for school!  She loved it.
