Big Plans In The Works!

A dear friend of mine gave me this dress when she outgrew it:

I love her.  I don't love the dress.  It's pretty, it's modest, it's girly, and it's sweet, but it's not at all my style.  It's 100% cotton, weathered to perfect comfort, and has loads of potential.

It has a bib collar, which is stained.  There is also a big chocolate stain under one of the arms (not pictured).

Do you see the lovely lace?  I am a sucker for lace!  But the whole look just doesn't suit me.  It doesn't suit me one bit.

I'll have a "reveal" post in the next few days.  Mommy ran out of white thread and she and I are juggling the idea of dyeing it.  Let's face it, all-white clothing is a bad idea for kids, as these stains clearly show.

As a teaser, I will tell you that the sleeves and bib have been removed.  The lace from the bib will be used on the refashion.  It's on the fast track to being my new favorite dress!

Stay tuned...
