I traced a raglan-sleeve bodice and made it bigger to compensate for a stable knit. It didn't work too well, but I found the same dress two sizes up at the op shop so I can try again. The skirt is a circle, and the jacket is thrifted.</div>

I decided to stop by the Cat Protection Society shop in Newtown, and I'm so glad I did. It's a small shop, about 10 meters by 8 meters, and their garment section isn't terribly organized, but that doesn't matter. The main attraction was the baskets of clothing that were $5 for a bagful. I ended up with 26 pieces for $10, and I also bought 2 patterns for a dollar each. Apparently the bins are temporary, but they've been there for a few weeks so far.<br />

It was a good experience, though. They had huge bins of clothing, so I bought a carrier bag full. It was less than a kilo, so I got 6 things for $8.

It looks like they rotate the oldest things to be half price, and there's a $2 rack. Things still aren't by size (WTF Australia?) but at least there's a fat girl rack so I don't have to scavenge through a million size sixes.<br />
<br />
I ended up getting 4 men's t-shirts for $9.50, so there will be new underpants in my future.<br />

The sewing studio is on the second floor, tucked away down a hallway. I loved it! They're quilting-focused, so I just bought some good scissors and a marking pen. The owner is such a doll- she checked whether the pen worked by using it on her shirt! There's a sewing circle there, but I've never been.<br />

I picked it up for a fiver at a thrift in Myrtle Creek, hence my parents' house in the background. I just removed the shoulder pads and the center panel, overlapped the center sides by 1/4 inch, and hand stitched them together. Then I took some fullness out of the shoulder and shortened the hem.<br />

A girl I knew in middle school recognized me (<span style="line-height: 18.2000007629395px;">‽) and wrote me an e-mail. Long story short, she's still awesome and you should be reading her blog: <a href="http://audieandeloise.blogspot.com/">Audie + Eloise</a>.</span></span><br />

The back waist is shirred, so I only needed to open up the bust. I changed the angle at which the surplice front wraps in order to do so. I think the skirt is still too long. My friend thinks I should leave it, but is probably just trying to get out of pinning my hems.

I definitely need a swayback adjustment, and possibly a smaller bodice size. I'll see how it fits once it comes out of the dryer. I attached the neckline binding, but just turned the sleeve hems over and stitched them down.<br />

If you're making this out of a twin flat sheet, save your sanity and buy the fitted sheet or pillowcases as well. This might be the one instance where it's less fiddly than fussy cutting the top sheet.Maren Gerouxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01003329230356723017noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5474711080205418721.post-83129814732312334752013-02-24T00:12:00.001-08:002013-02-24T00:12:29.070-08:00Once Upon a FebruaryDoesn't have the same ring to it, does it?
