Friday Fashion Redo!!

I found this top at a garage sale for .50¢, how could I pass that up?  If you know me, then you know I "NEVER" buy clothes at garage sales....even hubby was shocked, lol! Not because I think I'm too good or something...it's just I always go with a mission - Christmas, Frames, Fabric, Furniture, planting pots...I know weird huh!!  So I just never focus on clothes.  But my favorite color is yellow and it caught my eye.

How cute is this!!  I even made a rosette pin to wear. I'll post about  that later.
 I  wore this top with a black cardigan and pinned the pin onto the cardigan.  It looked super cute!!
I thought about  putting rosettes of the top but figure I would make the pin instead.  I can change it up.

Well here is my Friday Fashion Redo, enjoy!

here is the plane jane before pic.

The front and back hem had two small little holes, you know the ones where you 're always stretching and adjusting your top.  So I  cut off 3 lines off, which was about 2 1/2 inches. I used this to make my ruffles and a rosette for my pin.

I then stitched up the hem.  I didn't do a folded hem because 1. I didn't feel like ironing and 2. it was 2 in the morning.  

Here is what it looks like.  It gave it a flowing effect at the hem  which is cute.

This is this stitch I used.....don't know what it's called but I used it.

I ran my cut strip through to do a center stitch, then pulled on the top thread  to give it a ruffle.

Pinned my ruffle to the top.

I just folded the piece over where the shoulder strap started.  Then I just sewed.
I also added a back stitch here and at the bottom where I stopped.

I did this to both side.

Since the chest part was too wide and I didn't want a wardrobe malfunction
(i.e. nip slip,  booby bounce, knocker-out) lol!!   I sewed the two sides together.

See...doesn't it look much prettier?

Ugh.....then I notice this!!  Some how my white thread got dirty!!  Super annoyed, but too tired to do anything about it.
 That is why I made the rosette pin, so I could try and cover it.  But wearing the top you don't even notice the thread

Well I hope you enjoyed my fashion redo!!  Hope you have a great weekend!
