Thanks for spilling the truth on upcycling, yea,lots of videos out there make it seem like it took just several minutes, not knowing it take days, maybe weeks, reason why I do include duration in some of my diys
one of my favourite tool is the seam ripper, since I discovered it, i've never gone back to other means.
I love your upcycled top, doesn't look it by the way,feels more like the original and the fabric is beautiful as well.
Thank you for this lovely comment:)
Indeed it is always interesting to know how long it actually took to complete a project! Especially if you do not know about the skill, it always look so easy when someone experienced is doing it...
