From Frumpy to ?

Well I’ll let you decide.  But I’m pretty pleased.
This was my first attempt at “refashioning”.  It’s taking something you already own, or something used and sewing it into something that either fits better, or is more on trend.  Let’s just say I have three whole bins full of old clothes I hope to some day re-sew into things for myself or the kids.
I bought this black short sleeve blouse a year ago, and it was too big.  I should have returned it, but didn’t get around to it.  The skirt I have had for maybe 4 years, and I had worn it a couple of times, but it never quite looked right on me.

Now it’s turned into this.

I’d say it’s just a little bit better!

And just to keep it real.  Jesse makes fun of every single post I do when I have to model something.  I know I am not a model.  I don’t pretend to be.  I try to think of putting my body in weird angles like they say to do on top model, but again, I’m not a model.  It never turns out well, so maybe you too get a chuckle every time you see one of these posts.  Hey I’m okay if you laugh at me, at least we are laughing together!
