Last month I did a fun little hack of the Billie Jean pattern and finally got my shit together and wrote about it. Can I blame waiting for the right accessories to arrive in the mail? Cause cherry shoes and brooches are awesome. All hacking details and some fun wind blown photos are over on the Bluegingerdoll blog.
P.S. This hack is so darn easy. You'll spend more time trying to turn those devilish spaghetti straps than altering the pattern.
Reeeeally cute! Now just don't spill something on the white part, as I would surely do in the first 5 min! ;P
ReplyDeleteFasturn, lady! You are going to LOVE how easy it is to make any size strap. http://www.nancysnotions.com/product/fasturn+set.do
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Love how you styled it!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! You are a hacking genius!
ReplyDeletepolka dots with polka dots! lovely <3
ReplyDeleteHaa haaa! I also have this problem though this dress has survived 2 wearings so far. Maybe the 3rd time will be the charm.
ReplyDeleteSo you're gonna laugh Maris because I've had a fast turn set for years. Buuuuut I'm the queen of trying to make spaghetti straps out of fabric that frays a lot/is too thick/or diameter does not match a fast turn. I've only had them work well about 20% of the time.
ReplyDeleteThanks Margo. I might have used it as an excuse to finally get those cherry shoes. No regrets.
ReplyDeleteThanks Heather. I had a lot of help with instagram being inspiring.
ReplyDeleteThanks Juliana. More polka dots is never a bad thing. :)
ReplyDeleteSo super summery!
