I got this sweater handed down to me from my mom and it just doesn't fit me right. Mostly the neck is a little larger then I would like. I love the color and it is really soft and flowy material so I am going to transform this



into this-



LOVE this cardigan from J. Crew.

Stay tuned to see the outcome...I'm really excited!

Pleats, Pockets and Pinstripes

I just made this really cute "tulip" skirt. I saw a really cute skirt that inspired me off of Anthropology. So here is my rendition.



I scored this really cute fabric at JoAnn's for just under $6 and the cost of the pattern was 99 cents.
Cant beat that!
The directions for the pattern sucked so I ended up just kinda doin my own thing and this is what I got.




I don't think I will try to put pockets in a skirt again... It caused me A LOT of grief! and took me a long time.

Here is to pinstripes!
