I just discovered a fabulous blog by Ashley at http://www.makeit-loveit.com/ This lady is AMAZING!!! I have found several tutorials I plan to try, and she shows everything step by step, so I feel like I can really tackle these projects and do a good job! She creates new things and "repurposes" lots of different things to make them useful and fun. The first thing I plan to try is remaking a fun sundress I got from Target.com by using her tutorial found here: http://www.makeit-loveit.com/search/label/Re-Purposing?updated-max=2010-05-07T12%3A23%3A00-04%3A00&max-results=20
I purchased 3 of the dresses in pink, gray, and black, so if I can make each one just a little different, I will feel like I have 3 great new dresses to take on my cruise to the Bahamas this October.
Now I am off to start sewing...it's too HOT to work outside, so I will be inside in the AC for awhile sewing away!
Ashley from Make It and Love It used to be neighbors to one of my good college friends. We are now on a first name basis. And yes, she is amazing
