Hand Me Down Horror Refashions - Don't call it a Comeback

Ok totally singing LL Cool J's 'Mama Said Knock You Out' after that title, butttt erm moving swiftly on.

I started this blog to give me a kick up the butt to get back to sewing and more importantly to refashioning clothing. It worked, I refashioned janky article after janky article, every day for the longest time I posted newly made over loveliness, but then a new house and baby number 2 came and before long refashioning too was on the back burner and my pile of clothing to refashion just got bigger.

Well not anymore, I've been threatening to resurrect HMDH for erm most of this year, so without further excuse making ;) here we go.

Thought I'd ease myself in gently to refashioning clothing again, I love love loved this sweater in the thrift store but it was kinda fuzzy and the shape was really not doing anything for me either. So I got to chopping and made myself this cute little clutch with some Denim scraps and trims I had in the Monster stash.

Kinda Aboriginal, kinda sorta Midwest, a lotta Geometric design and you know I love me some Red, White and Blue. Pom Pom trim? Rick Rack? Denim? bring it on, less is NOT more don't kid yourself ladies.

So whatd'ya think? (looks down at feet and shuffles a bit) have I still got it?
