Sample sale DIY

I dunno if anyone has ever had this problem when getting items from sample sales, but sometimes the clothes are damaged is some way. Like this dress that I got- it had a piece of fabric cut out of the back, but due to the nature of the fabric and the pattern, I cut it to make a zig-zag pattern:













I must have cut around 7 inches (18cm) of fabric off the bottom, which turned the dress into a tunic but I made some funky mittens out of the rest of the fabric:














And a matching headband... although I think wearing it altogether is a bit of a turquoise and brown harlequin overload!
