The Overall Lace Maxidress Refashion

Do you ever have a silly idea that just won’t leave your brain until it’s been created?

Meet my latest refashionista-brain-worm:

An overall-lace-maxi-dress that turned out waaaay more amazing than I ever could have imagined!

Here’s how to make The Overall Lace Maxidress Refashion for yourself:

 

 Grab a pair of overall shorts (or regular overalls) & a large lace table cloth (mine had some stubborn stains that a bath in pink dye took care of nicely).

Chop the bib off of the overalls just under the waistband.

Stitch the tablecloth into a long tube.

Chop to your desired length & gather or pin tuck the right side of the tablecloth tube to the inside of the overall bib waistband.

Stitch together.

Say hello to your lurvly new dress!

  1. Oh my goodness this is sooooo stinking cute! And I have to agree with shantiefranklin, the possibilities are endless! This came out gorgeous – another project to add to my list!! 🙂

    1. uh, huh…I can’t wait to find a pair of denim overalls, I’ve got an idea brewing that just might turn out even better than this one! – or at least 15% quirkier! 😉

      1. Hahaha well now I’m really intrigued!!

  2. You know the possibilities for this are almost endless….Love this idea.

    1. Cheers Tia! Yer absolutely right, not only can this specific piece work awesomely dressed up or down but it’s also given me loads of inspiration for more overall/lace projects 😉

  3. This looks great!! 🙂 xx

    1. Thanks lurvly! The army green & pink combo is surprisingly fabulous! 😀

  4. Wowzers that looks amazing! Got to admit when I saw it all together before it was stitched together I was a wee but dubious but I LOVE how it turned out – nice work!

    1. Thanks very much…I was totally sceptical too but my brain just wouldn’t let it go so I had to give it whirl and am thrilled I did! 😉
