Halter top recon

Feb 28, 2010 7 Comments

So I posted before about entering The Fabric Floozie’s Recon-a-Thon….and here I am extremely last minute, entering a recon. February turned out to be a pretty busy month and I got behind on craftiness.

This afternoon, I grabbed this scarf from my scarf collection.

It was a favorite when I purchased it months ago, but it really washed me out and was a little bulkier than I cared for.  It’s been hanging unloved for too long, so the Recon-a-Thon was the perfect opportunity for it to be transformed into something that would get worn and loved.

I used my halter top pattern and got busy.  It was very sheer, so I lined it with muslin.

Now Elliott has a fun little hippie halter dress ready for spring!  She refuses to take it off now because it ‘makes me dance so pwetty!’.  Just add sunshine!

So…what do you think?
