Started off with this...
Yeah. No more needs to be said - lol!
Decided that the transparent fabric would make a cute shirt, so...
Snip, Snip!
Off with the ugly neck ruffle, and banish the long skirt!

Some would stop at that, but the length of the new shirt was a crop top, and I am not up for the exposed midriff!
So I looked at ways to lengthen, taking out a piece from the skirt.

While I had originally wanted a flowy top, joining the two pieces was gonna change that look, so I decided to go with a fitted waist, adding elastic to the skirt portion.
Then I had to change the neck, sleeves and shoulders.
And the end product...Sorry the pics are less than perfect!
I still have fabric left from the skirt, so maybe I'll get an extra top from it!
