Description

This panel of fabric used to be a curtain in a home I no longer live in. I’ve had it folded on my shelf for about a year with no idea how to use it since it was so narrow. Inspired by all of the Grosgrain Frock by Fridays, I finally decided to give the Anda dress a go since the yardage worked out perfectly for what I had. I was even lucky enough to center the pattern! Just never mind the unfinished hem….I wasn’t sure how much I liked the dress to finish it off.

    Wow they were some particularly awesome curtains. Nice brave choice. I’ve often wondered about the odd piece of curtain fabric being used for clothes.

    I think it looks fabulous – you should totally finish it! If you find you don’t wear it, but it for sale on etsy :) I’m sure someone would love to own it!
