Description

This dress was made last summer. I was walking down the market and saw some cheap long granny skirts (the modern versions being called maxi skirts I guess) and since I had spare change I bought them because the material had potential. This skirt had buttons going down the middle.

I decided to keep the buttons in the middle and added elastic at the waiste and at the back and hemmed the front top into that shape, and I eneded up with this dress.

    Love the idea of creating something so gorgeous from a “granny” skirt! I may visit my Nana to raid her wardrobe!!
