I adore those scalloped edges and that color! </p> <p>If you could find two table cloths, I'm sure you could find a tailor to create it for you. . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-really-crazy-but#post-402159 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 03:29:31 +0000 lyn* 402159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They got rid of Etsy's Alchemy feature ... maybe I'll just wait on the Karen Kane contest and see what happens! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-really-crazy-but#post-402158 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 03:29:19 +0000 rae 402158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not crazy! I second the idea of a local dressmaker - it doesn't seem like a complicated design at all, so it shouldn't be that much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-really-crazy-but#post-402154 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 03:26:38 +0000 DressLover 402154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think that is crazy at all - I think it is cute! I bet if you sent the picture to an Etsy dressmaker, they could do it. Or take it into a local dressmaker. As with most things, finding the fabric is the hardest part. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-really-crazy-but#post-402151 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 03:18:47 +0000 lyn* 402151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I sew so bad I got kicked out of home-ec! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-really-crazy-but#post-402150 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 03:17:30 +0000 catgirl 402150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your tablecloth dress too! I bet it would be a cinch to sew, and once you got it down you could use anything cheap and cute (sheets from IKEA, thifted fabric, etc.). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-really-crazy-but#post-402149 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 03:15:53 +0000 lyn* 402149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I'm in love with my table cloth dress. Has anyone seen anything like it that is made by someone who sews (aka: not held together by hot glue gun, duct tape, and safety pins)?</p> <p>:( I want one. </p>
