What is wrong with all of you people?  No comments?

This dress is amazing.  I would be really happy if I'd made it.

Great stuff, I would just appreciate better lit pictures so I could see it better.

It looks like 3 shirts ?

You got a cool new dress and you didn't even destroy anything you own.
I like the little X stitching on the back, nice touch.


Big win  :-D

I know absolutely nothing about sewing, but that looks really cool!

There's a store near me that sells clothing made from other clothing for ridiculous prices, so not only have you made something absolutely awesome, you could see it as saving a whole assload of money, too!

I've never seen a shop like that.
But you've inspired me - there are a lot of op shops near me, I should buy some ?1 skirts and shirts and chop them up!

Only downside it that I'll have to sew everything by hand.  I've done it before though, and the result is that I love the bag I made all the more for having put so much work into it!

I think that if I saw a girl wearing a dress like that at a party I'd probably "wander around" looking for her every 15 minutes or so, and then kick myself on the way home for not talking to her.

Went to op shops on the weekend - currently I'm shortening a red skirt; not that exciting but I'll post pics when it's done.
I got lots of *attractive* stuff...

That is really nice! You inspired me now, I might attempt something like this myself... I like the back the most, where it's mostly black white and red. Sweet stuff!

I think I might make one just as a shot to make some boy "wander" around after me at parties...
