Day 23

October23

I don’t even know what to title today’s post. I’ve spent the last half hour or so cackling over regretsy. Oh my gosh! Thank you punky’s mamma, for the introduction.

So I may have mentioned my ‘collection’ (well, a cardboard box full) of vintage/thrifted aprons. I’ve been trying to find a tutorial to turn one into a top or little girl’s dress. So far I’m not coming up with much. This tutorial demonstrates making a tote bag from an apron. Then there are making an apron from a pillowcase, feed sack etc. But I haven’t found a top one yet. I guess I should make one up myself huh?

This is Zoe’s Christmas dress from last year. I really love it but it doesn’t fit anymore (armholes too tight). What to do? Keep for ever or pass it on?

ps. I’m TOTALLY going to buy a hot glue gun and some matches tomorrow…. I want to make one of these desperately.

until tomorrow, sweet dreams xox
