Flower Vest

Not such great pictures, but it's an ankle-length, full skirt on the bottom half.

I've always wanted an open-back dress, but this didn't work out.

I started by ripping the two pieces of the dress apart.

Once they were ripped apart, I pinned the fringed seams and then went to sew them down.

I have a lot of extra fabric now which I'm going to use for a skirt.

The main change that I made was that the front of the vest was the back of the dress.

Anyway...suggestions, comments, etc?
