Take two friends

What happens when two fiber artists get together?

You add a copy of Altered Couture, a large collection of doilies, unsuspecting thrift store sweaters, and voila:

The sweater was deconstructed, shortened, and the bottom part used for trimming the next. The rest is doilies, lace, and two lace cuffs scored on Ebay some time back.

Too much fun!

  1. What a wonderful new sweater! So that's what you get when 2 talented friends meet up with a bunch of doilies and vintage lace?

  2. Past, that's if you can retrieve the doilies before they get into a lace book....

  3. What a fabulous sweater! I bought something a little like that in Anthropologie, but I probably paid a lot more for it than you did. :(
