DIY Plaid COAT TO OVERALL DRESS DIY

February 25, 2017~ SEWING, YOUTUBE VIDEOS

 

Watch the FULL TUTORIAL below:

 

 

Hi everyone!

I hope you’re having a great Saturday! This week has been somewhat difficult for me but I hope yours is better than mine! This week’s refashion is your pick from my Refashion Vision episode 1 where I went thrift shopping and picked out several items and shared the “vision” I had for each item, impromptu style, and you got to vote which one to refashion! (see the video where the voting happened here) The majority of you voted for this plaid coat and in the video I said I was thinking of either an overall dress or an overall wide pants and since there wasn’t enough fabric to make it into pants, an overall dress it was!

To get sneak peeks of the next refashion project and behind the scenes(instastory), follow me on Instagram at @sarahtyau
