Lorraine’s This2That

This is a great way to refashion those dresses or skirts that no longer fit.  Contrast fabric I used old jeans!

I have designed a new pattern.  You can either purchase new zipper or us old zippers.  It's really FUN and FAST! Supply list 1 – 5” metal,  molded tooth or coil zipper* (zipper size is left up to you the designer – for example: large #8 get more noticed and are more masculine, smaller #5 are dainty so it’s up to you)!  *You can also use the smaller coil zipper and cut to 6” length ¼” yard of nylon webbing or cotton webbing* *when using cotton webbing there is more work to finish the raw edge so keep that in mind 2 – 1” “D” rings to match FUN ZIPPER BRACELET  APPROXIMATELY 1 HOUR PROJECT DESIGNED BY Lorraine Giannetto-Glach www.lorrainesthis2that.blogspot.com Pattern #130 A simple yet fun project to make.  Maybe you have a sentimental outfit that is either worn out or out of style – take the zippers out and have some FUN! I hope you enjoy this pattern as much as I enjoyed designing it.  J © 2013 Lorraine...

This is an amazing transformation...Sue wore this wedding dress nearly 48 years ago and her daughter Anna will be wearing the new refashioned wedding dress tomorrow.  It has been a work in progress and it turned out just BEAUTIFUL! The necklace she is wearing here has lace piece from the dress in a glass bead to make it into a pendant!  Something old and something new!
