25 Days Til I Do!

It's Day 25!!! Today's project turned out a little differently than the rest so far which you'll soon see! 

NDAD - Day 25 - Vintage Wedding Dress

The dress was gorgeous...

...but I couldn't quite figure out the added fabric on the right side of the dress...

It just felt so out of place and overly pouffy.

While I have plans for the rest of the dress, I'm going to tackle this extra bit of fabric today. I removed it from the dress and knew that I could make something fab!!

I added it to a dye bath and did some serious hand stitching.

I folded the fabric in half and stitched the sides of it to make a cute satchel!

You might see me at Trader Joe's toting this to bring home my coffee, Babybels, and chocolate covered almonds !!

For some excess fabric, I am totally digging the outcome of this one!
