Why Hello There

Well Im a bit late on the introductions but better late than never.
Im Angie. Im a twenty something nursing student from Az. I blog at SewIThought.com

Here's my first project.
I got this dress from a thrift store a couple months ago for a buck. I liked the print but obviously it wasn't gona work without some real effort.


The drop-waist style added a bit of difficulty if I wanted to keep this as a dress so instead I cut it in half and made one elastic waist skirt and one sleeveless blouse.

Now I have two pieces that can be worn separately or together. Endless possibilities!!

You can see more on my blog. I am having a giveaway this week so come on over and add your input!!

  3. This is an amazing DIY. To get such great separates from one piece is genius! Must get myself a sewing machine :)

    Thanks for the follow and good luck with the give-away on my blog :)
