A Little Black Dress

This elegant dress was completed in just 3 simple steps.
It was made using a skirt 3 sizes to big and a dress 1 size to small.
I LOVE this dress!!!
Here is the waaayyyy to big skirt I started with. It's a size 6. It was so pretty and super cheap that I just couldn't pass it up. I {love} a good bargain!!
STEP 1:
Cut the bodice off the dress.
STEP 2:
Pin the bodice of the dress to the skirt.
I pinned it just above the crochet trim. I wanted it to flow and not look "homemade".
STEP 3:
Sew or serge the bodice to the skirt.
Now you have a beautiful little blackdress for your princess to wear all winter long.
I like that the length is a little longer on this dress. Having the hem a little longer is sure to keep those little legs a little warmer on the COLD Sunday mornings that are coming soon.
(better photos coming soon :0)
