Refashion/cardigan to vintage style top

I really like the rushed front

the back



I've had this cardigan in my major overhaul pile for ages. I didn't like the shape of it and  it was way too tight unless I wore it with something really thin underneath so I refashioned it for Make and Mend 2011 which I'm doing in addition to my own refashion Make Do And Mend Wardrobe Refashion I'm pretty happy with the outcome.I thinks it's quite cute. It does stay up on it's own although I might add straps later but I'll see if I really need them.

  2. I agree with Debi, fantastic idea. I think a halter neck would be cute.

  3. Thanks Kat! A halterneck would be nice! I was thinking if I put straps on it I would keep my options open by making them removable so I have different options.I was thinking of wearing it with a full circle skirt with a big petticoat under it
