DIY dress


So I'm still working on the 3lbs of fabric I bought at the Crate and Barrel outlet (in Illinois). It was all random sized remnants, but I had one fairly large piece.

Seriously, this piece of fabric would've cost almost $35, but I got it for about 50 cents.

I measured above my chest, and my hips, cut out a rhombus shape, sewed it up the middle, elastic at the top and ... wha-la! Instant dress!

So I didn't look like a pregnant tent, I also made a belt for cinching. (Who loved SNL in the 90s? "You just cinch it!" (Gap Girls)).
