Because this week I am making a dress out of discarded curtains. A while back I made some pretty curtains for my living room that just didn't look right. They hung on the window for about 2 minutes before I decided they were all wrong. This weekend my sister-in-law, Abbie, will be attending a fancy wedding reception and is in need of a fancy dress. Enter the curtains, and a project for me.
a note: All vintage patterns are not created equal, and the one I am using is particularly crazy. Wish me luck.
