I have three sisters. They are all the same size as me. And they all have just as many clothes that for one reason or another they are attached to and won’t get rid of, but don’t wear anymore. Saturdays Justin works at the temple and rather than being bored I thought we should have a refashion party! I have seen so many ideas on blogs, and I’m poor now so I wanted to give it a try.
The four of us. I’m the one with the blurry head.
We made piles of stuff we wanted to keep and work on and piles we didn’t care about for scraps, I mean… possible works of art!
The babies were kept occupied…Mostly by my mom. Thanks Mom!!!
Some of our Creations…
K, this one might be a joke, not sure. Kasi?
Stef made one of these that turned out pretty cute:
These pants originally looked like this…bell bottoms purchased 5 or 6 years ago.
And the result (with a knotted t-shirt that took like five minutes!):
The Knot.
A quick and easy embellished sweater. I used the sleeves, they kept pulling down the sweater anyway.
I decided it would be easier (as in wouldn’t have to take a million to get one I like) to just focus on the shirts…thus the chopped off head. Though Koda was caught licking himself in this one. I almost kept it all just for that.
We had a blast and it was so easy! It did help that my mom had all the colors of thread and two sewing machines available.
Some skirts, several shirts, and a few pairs of pants. I would call it a success.

That is super cool Jodi! I wish I could do that, I'd need help cause I'm so not a sewer!
Thanks! It really was easy. I'm not very good either, but most of the ones I did you don't even have to sew very straight! Which is good because I'm terrible at that.
I love it! How did you do the button shirt and the sweater that was pink? Or what blogs did you find all of this on?
Here are a few of them:

They are Amazing!
The shirt was super easy. I cut the sleeves off so it was a 3/4 sleeve, and used the strips to make the embellishment. Then you just sew enough that the embellishment stays where you want it.
