Wow, two posts in one day. If you have scrolled down in my posts I have written about sewing the above purple top. I grew to not like it anymore and didn't want to wear it at all. It was way too long and the purple faded so quickly. So I just shoved it in my stack of to fix things with all my sewing stuff. I only go the idea recently while reading the most inspiring blog The ReFashionista, http://refashionista.net/ love that blog so much. Then it occoured to me, Dye! Yes! that's it and a bit of elastic through the waist and voila! So much nicer now.

Well it has been a long time since the last post. I have been most busy lately. Anyhoo, I have seriously started to consider refashioning. Needless to say I love it so much. I have always loved to sew but this is a great way especially since I don't have a lot of time to sew from scratch.

This is my very first refashion, it was a skirt that was given to me a while ago the skirt itself is a tad tight and may have worn it as is but I wanted something different and I just love the colour in it. So I chopped off a bit of length and (forgot to take another picture) but added some straps at the top, I also had enough material left to make a bolero and just added a broach to clasp it together.
