Almost a tutorial...three piece dress

The idea for this dress came to me while I was riding the bus to work. All three pieces were in my donate pile for various reasons.



I cut the top off the blue dress:


I cut the bottom off of the white top:


and I cut two rectangles out of the green rose print top:


Then I serged the green pieces into a tube:


did some draping and pinning on Millie:


and finally serged everything together:


This dress has everything I loved about the original pieces and nothing I didn't.
