So I am a slacker. Whatevs. I wish I could do a project a week, but...it ain't gonna happen. Unless ofcourse I were to tie up the monsters, and frankly, even I did, the little boogers would escape. Anywho, this is my 5th attempt at Project Restyle. I do like the motivation it gives me to get crafting. It's like my coach back in the day 86 the bullhorn and the yelling.
Before: thrifted dress
After: cross body carry-all/shopper for grocery shopping, days at the park or the pool, that I can get wet and dirty and throw in the wash.
It is ginormous.
It has a giant cross body strap and two small handles for carrying.
The bottom, some sweet bow heavy polyester vintage fabric.
I lined the inside with more scraps and put in a ton of pockets with the intention of storing yarn...and notebooks, when not being used to store toys and sand.
