    Oh my gosh, love love love your design! I am 62 and believe it or not am wearing a tablecloth dress I made years ago. I love this dress. I cut a perfect circle for the skirt and used a cami under the top. I may be a mature woman. But, I still love the twirl factor in a dress.

    Loving the boho vibe. A tablecloth like that would also be super cute attached to a denim mini skirt to give a flowy boho maxi skirt feel

    Here's an idea from (literally) 1969 (yeah, yeah, I know - showing my age and all that): find a circular tablecloth (again, as lacy, crochet-y, funky, appliqued you name it). Lay it down flat, fold it in half, cut a hole in the neck for a neckline (be careful not to do it too large unless you're going for the off the shoulder thing). Put it over your head (you might need a friend to help with this part) and pin the edges where your wrists are (just to hold it there). Then have your helper pin it where your armpits are but make it loose enough that you can get your arms out -not too snug in other words. Pin it up the sides and in where your armpits would be. Sew a seam all the way up and then down the arm (you can make the sleeve as big, little, think 1960s 'Age of Aquarius' fake medieval stuff), Instant dress. If you want to use part of the tablecloth to bind the neckline, go for it.

    I love making those kimono style tops! Super easy and quick. Almost fool proof, very beginner friendly and they generally end up looking good.
    Also, as an avid crocheter, I'd be super bummed if I made something like that gigantic table cloth, just to have it end up in a thrift store. HOWEVER! If I knew it was going to be repurposed into clothes, I'd be very happy about it. Great upcycles 💜
    Edit: don't let any of the crochet go to waste. Turn the off cut circles and edging into a cute, simple summer/boho purse. Of course it will need a lining, but it will look spectacular, I'm sure.

    I just gave away a bunch of antique lace tablecloths!! I knew I would regret it, and your gorgeous outfit makes me doubly regretful!! I think that starting with the fabric glue was a really helpful idea, but when you sewed the lace inserts in, do you think you could have sewn them from the inside to make that step a lot easier? Either way, I always adore YOU and your videos!

    I can't, I just can't. Creative brains like this don't just happen. Another EPIC example of your genius at work.
    PS. the element I love the most... is thinking how those tablecloths were present in memorable family gatherings. Had you not rescued the material those memories were destined for the dump. Ironic isn't it, in creating something inspired by #Freepeople you actually FREED THE PEOPLE in lovingly carrying on their story. No fast fashion brands can offer that. 💕

    You are theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee best DIY Designer🥰🥰🥰.
    Tip: you obviously had to re stitch the inner seam you opened in error…..soooooooo…..
    To make it easier…..I’ll open that entire inner seam for both legs …..THEN have easier access to the outer seams to add the lace panel….then re sew the inner seam……..🤗🤗🤗

    I have some handmade crochet pieces from my great grandmother and while I could never cut up her stuff, I think when something like this has worn out it's useful life, you definitely don't mind giving it a new one! Way to go, great idea to repurpose and added bonus you might feel like someone hand made it for you! I love that thought.

We don't have to be young to enjoy wearing stylist clothing right ?? Your creations are so classy and fun with so much personality! My local Shops here are either too young for me, the other shops seems to make mature women's clothing so frumpy ! I'm stuck in the middle ! LOL I love unique and you certainly know how to create your own look ! You are so talented. Can't wait to see what's next ! I'm certainly going to purchase a lace table cloth ! I have taken sleeves from a blouse and added to a different piece of clothing and also sewn a zipper at the front of other tops to give it more style. I to am always chopping and piecing different tops together. You are so inspiring ! Cindi from Canada, north of Toronto

    I was talking to my friends this week about hand crafted items like doilies and tablecloths that really no one is making anymore and most people don’t have the need or appreciation for. But it’s really a dying art form and shows how our world has drastically changed that it is dying. So it is fabulous to think of being able to use those items as fabric and create clothes out of them. Gorgeous result

    Our Dear Ms. DIY:
    Loving your channel! Recent subscriber.
    Wow! The final ensemble is absolutely wonderful!
    On the seam and the table cloth, I suggest using fusible tape to tack it down if you are sewing it. Super fast and easy. I am pretty sure fusible tape would be faster for sewers than fabric glue.
    I use the tape on most of my sewing projects.
    You are completely rocking this channel!
