I am currently working on projects left and right, cool projects, fun projects, projects that make me want to post tutorials and share them with the world! However, I cannot post a single on of them, and I find myself feeling this as a seasonal frustration. I am making Christmas gifts, and Christmas gifts have to be kept a secret, and therefore should not be posted on the web for the world (my family and friends) to see.

Before and After |
With that rant over, I will post a dress I just altered. I don't have a tutorial for what I changed on the dress. It really was very basic though, except for the fact that I added pockets. The pockets though were way easier to do than I expected them to be. I do have a tutorial for the pockets
HERE. Other than that, I shortened the skirt, gathered the back a little to take it in, and sewed the shoulder's closed where they had a quite unnecessary and super outdated buttoning thingymabob... I don't even pretend to know what I'm talking about.

Close up on the pockets |
If you have a longing for pockets, I would definitely urge you do go for it and slice into your favorite dress. Agian
HERE is my tutorial, and there are others online for different styles.

Back With Gathering |
Maybe after Christmas I'll post some of the things I've been working on... That doesn't usually happen though, does it?
