Dye Young Stay Pretty

I made like a witch and conjured up some potion. It was fun, I felt like a scientist. But it took quite awhile and a lot of stirring. The dress was originally a hospital pale green and a wee bit transparent. So I gave it an autumnal make over with a lovely shade of Burlesque Red. Saucy!

100%Organic cotton. Hmm, the thread slipped through the net! The synthetic thread didnt take the dye, but the pale turquoise is a nice contrast with this Loganberry purple!

Fold and Sew

At last! These have been a long project. I found a similar one on Etsy by a very clever person. I spent some time figuring out how it was made, fashioned a prototype with some random old t-shirt and then after sourcing the fabric and chain I got stuck in! I mucho like this one. And its all for ME :) 2 other lucky people have had one made too. Limited Edition!
