Today I was thinking to talk about something new, as about ...remaking ..giving at an old garment a new look...in my case this old dress. I have bought it some years ago for its colour and material quality. My intention was to change in some way the whole design and wear it, but for some reason I keep it closed in my wardrobe for some time. Of course, each time I was opening the wardrobe to take some clothes out, my eyes was laying on this dress in somehow "unfinished" for my taste, and my mind was telling me "you have to do something with it..(lol). But years passed by and I didn't move a finger on it until some days ago. Why now, you will ask me? Why, because recently I've started crocheting. For that I needed some yarn and crochet needles, so I ran to the nearest store and bought what I needed. At the yarn corner my eyes stopped over a black and white colours and without any purpose, just because I liked the combination, I both its. Now, as some days ago I started a new pattern using those colours, I realised that the new pattern works very well with that dress. So, I rushed for some days to finish the project that's settled in my mind. It took some days because I had to do many other things between.
Now, here I am, with this new project done and I tell you that I am so proud with what came out. Moreover, as I was wearing the dress today, many people I know have asked me about the dress "where did you bought it?" (lol)...So what can I say, I'm really proud of myself...was worth the effort(lol).

Have a nice day!
