Here I am getting off the plane last weekend in my gingham sew-along.
I WISH!
Isn’t she gorgeous in her gingham dress?!
So classy. Right up there with Brigitte Bardo, Jackie O. and Audrey Hepburn rockin’ their gingham.
And so is my friend, Linda “gettin’ her gingham on” in these refashioned shorts. (Be sure to notice the shoes, too. Aren’t they great!)
Linda found a pair of too-small, but very well made gingham shorts. She solved the size issue by taking off the waistband, adding an embroidered-floral insert at the sides and a wide black elastic at the top. She even added the waistband to a cute top she had. She didn’t waste a thing.
I love this!
Carissa from Carissa Knits sewed along with us this week and knocked it out of the park again with her amazing dress refashion.
I love how she saved the Ralph Lauren tag. And that bias trim! Oh La La!
Delain Miller refashioned this gingham shirt into a cute apron this week.
Vicky Meyers sent in a cute floral and stripe refashion sew along. You can see more on her blog, Vicky Meyers Creations.
If you sewed along with us this week feel free to send in your sew-along to bhunting@eoni.com

I love these!! So clever!
I agree! Thanks for your nice comment, Kathy!
I LOVE gingham, I always have! My black and white studio has gingham cushions, a gingham curtain, and my favourite reusable shopping bag is one I made out of the same black and white gingham. Vive le vichy!
Oh Gina, your studio sounds so beautiful!!! I bet it’s a great place to work!
Love the floral add to the gingham shorts. So cool!!!!
I thought it was so clever, too!
Why Beth, you look so fabulous fresh off the plane! 😀 I adore gingham for my boys. Making gingham shirts for them is such a joy. I can never seem to find the right color gingham for me, but when I do, a shirtdress is so happening.
Why thank you so much, Elizabeth! 🙂 A girl can dream, right?!!!
Absolutely!

These were really cute, all of the examples look just great. Thanks for sharing.
I love seeing how creative everyone is, too.
Saved the Ralph Lauren tag. Oh you guys crack me up, you are so creative. I need to sew a zipper into a skirt, I’m sure it will take me half a day.
You did it again! Love the gingham! Linda looks marvelous!
Linda’s shorts are so cute! I like the whole outfit, including the shoes!
Beautiful makes – love the lace in the shorts, and the Ralph Lauren label:) so far had no luck finding any gingham in the charity shops.. Will see if I get a chance to join in this week:)
I especially love the shorts! ‘Very clever idea! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
I really like that pink dress😊
So cool! I love all of these refashions, but I have to admit the pink dress is my favorite to wear (for myself). Great job to all!
