vintage sheet to maxi dress

tada! I love* posting my to do list on the blog, then I have some accountability with you guys to finish it! so here's my finished vintage sheet into maxi dress! I kind of love it.  Especially with this belt I thrifted on the same trip as the sheet. I only wish I'd sewn pockets in! Well, it'd be easy to unpick the seam and add some, but let's face it, it's done and I probably won't.

*only when it's something I really want to do...and not something like tweeze my eyebrows or vacuum my sewing room floor.

It's swingy and flowy and fun. (and that strap doesn't want to stay on my shoulder.) It was not too bad of a sew (I used this pattern), just a little crazy wrestling with the fabric to cut the pieces out. It was a BIG sheet. I have a ton leftover. Do I sense some mommy and me outfits? (just kidding guys! or am I...)

I even whipped out the shoulder pop for you guys. (that's a legit modeling term. er, swear.)

Thanks to my sister Janae for taking these pics for me, and to the runners who ran past as quickly as they could, avoiding eye contact with the weird girls taking pictures in a field. We appreciate your eye contact avoidance.  It made it much less awkward.
