2 pieces are better than 1

Yesterdays 2-piece dress post inspired us to create

our very own set.  There are so many different styles

and ways to create this fantastic look, but we decided to keep it 

as simple as possible {this time!}

Here's how we did it:

We scoured through our closets in search of an

old fitted dress that neither of us wore much any more. 

Why fitted? This way, when we cut the dress in half

there would be very minimal tailoring or adjusting to do 

to the pieces.

We put on the dress, and marked a point to indicate where

to separate the top and bottom. Using fabric scissors, we cut directly across.  We cleaned up the edges by sewing new hems where we just made the cuts.

Please note, if you are using really stretchy fabric, it might be 

easiest to use hem or fabric tape. Voila!

After this project, we definitely can't wait to make some

more sets for spring and upcoming music festivals!
