It was a booby tubey type halter dress, which was lovely and all, but I felt a bit like mutton dressed up as lamb. There was no way I'd wear it with out a bra and it sure looked naff with my bulky nanna bra straps hanging out.So on the chopping board it went and got transformed into a new top.
Complete with pin tuck detail.
I'm enjoying this new challenge so far!
Back later tonight, with January's design theme after we do our first round of selections for the next Northside Makers market...Yay!
The refashioned top looks great Jay! You are a sewing powerhouse.

ReplyDeleteWell done Jay, it looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteWow, love the top... very creative. xxoo
ReplyDeletewow, you are very clever! Looks great! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a great top! I too suffer from not going out without a bra and only having granny straps....
ReplyDeleteWow very nice Jay, I love the redesign with the red contrast panels!
ReplyDeleteMakes me feel like getting out my sewing machine and Betty (my dressmaking manequin)....
I love that top! Well done. And wouldn't life and clthes making be so much easier without bra straps?!
