THRIFT FLIP | diy summer clothing transformations from thrifted clothes & blankets | WELL-LOVED

[@angie4755]

I grabbed 3 trash bags of fabric that someone put out for free & I've been creating a new summer wardrobe!

[@spicybrown75]

Awesome!!

[@lcatt6940]

That's amazing! Would love to see pictures of what you are creating!

[@angie4755]

@@lcatt6940 oh, I don't have any socials or I would! 👍🏻

[@WellLoved]

oh amazing!

[@kristianbjrnjensen5388]

Which size did the trashbags have? There are many sizes to choose between-----Anyway: It is a good inspiration. I only hope for you, that it was not thick woolen fabric, you made summer warderoobe out of.

[@virginiabrayton7362]

I thought the yellow gingham dress was the best. And then you modeled the orange quilted top...😯 Utter perfection. It was so cool. I loved both pieces but let's face it..the orange top is top notch. I'd wear it quite a bit. I'm crazy for that top!!! ☺❤

[@WellLoved]

i'm so glad you love the top! i'm obsessed with how it turned out!

[@nedrakastor1134]

At first, I thought what a shame to cut off the adorable sleeves of the yellow dress, but it turned out SO cute, you don't even miss the sleeves. Maybe you can save them for another flip! I am new to your channel; I have been binge watching all the ones from the past! Thank you for all the inspiration and the entertainment!

[@WellLoved]

i was nervous to cute those off too, but so happy i did!! welcome to well-loved! i'm glad you're enjoying it here!

[@AliFromSoCali]

I would say that, although this was one of your "easier" thrift flip ( the yellow checked dress) you turned something kinda frumpy into something absolutely adorable...bravo!!!

[@WellLoved]

thanks!

[@carrietar]

[@hunterj458]

Amazing. I love both pieces. Gave me a great idea. I have the same quilt that I was thinking of getting rid of but after seeing what you made, I’ve decided to make a short jacket out of mine. Thanks for sharing.

[@WellLoved]

that will be so cute! i'm so glad you got some inspo!

[@gailfelker5005]

Genius. I love your use of bias tape in both pieces. When you started the second piece I really doubted it would look good, thinking the quilted fabric was too thick and stiff. But it turned out so stunning!

[@WellLoved]

thank you!! that was the perfect quilt for the style of shirt!

[@BellyHolly]

I really like how you always emphasize the sustainable aspect of thrifting ❤

[@Anna-ky7ix]

You are so creative & gifted with sewing! It always amazes me what you create! Super cute as usual flips!

I have a dress that I wanted to change to how you have changed your yellow dress!!! Thanks for showing how to make the flip look so elevated!!💕💕

[@tawneeseekye1]

The doggie in the corner..giving me LIFE!!!

[@WellLoved]

Haha always!

[@DontBeDeceived6.7]

This is a compliment that mightn't sound like one but sometimes Adey picks clothing that I view her picks as hideous but when she flips it, I see that she really appreciates color and other things I would not consider. Well done BEAUTIFUL GIRL!

[@WellLoved]

haha that's what i love about thrifting and diys!

[@joycewilliamsteague6487]

Both of these are wonderful transformations. I love them both

YOU are CRAZY TALENTED OMG!!!!! My only hope is finding something perfect at the thrift store because I can't do ANY alterations!!! 🤗🤣

[@WellLoved]

thank you!! alterations really help to make thrifted pieces my own, i'm super thankful i learned how to sew. you should learn!! it's so fun!

[@thebluedot4728]

it reminds me of the quilted dress H&M had that I really wanted! I love h&m lately!

[@WellLoved]

how funny!

[@WellLoved]

THANK YOU!!

[@classyhistoricalsewing]

Finally a thrift flip were things are actually sewed nicely 😭 I always see girls just cutting stuff up and leaving the seams raw or making wonky hems

[@theresacarter1033]

Great job!!

[@WellLoved]

Thanks!

[@erinbailey3360]

Both projects turned out sooooo cute

[@WellLoved]

agreeeed! thank you!

[@patriciahooks7897]

I like your top better than the white picture top. You did that.🤗

[@WellLoved]

aww thanks!! i couldn't resist the orange!

[@crazygossipgurl101]

This might be helpful: I was taught to do two rows of gathering stitches one on the finish sew line and one just above that row in the seam allowance (like 1/4in away from the first row) this makes the gathering more even looking and also saves you if one of your gathering stitches breaks!

[@WellLoved]

yup! great tip!

[@jodihatlee-langille4444]

I want one! love ❤️

[@WellLoved]

thank you!!

[@lisacapri4837]

I LOVE the dog poop story! 😂 Keeping it real is where it’s at!

[@WellLoved]

Haha I thought it was hilarious that she pooped on the ONE thing I needed haha nothing but real over here!!

[@leelulady2010]

You can make headbands, a kerchief or hair scrunchies with the yellow remnants!

[@WellLoved]

Yup!

[@lindap9079]

The beauty of Bias Tape is that it will mold to a curve. 5:40 With finagling it will fit around the underarm area without need sew the little triangle into the strap piece.

[@WellLoved]

I’m aware. The reason I did this was because it wasn’t a deep enough curve for my straps to be at the correct angle. I needed to have a more angled curve so the bias tape laid flat around the curve and up the straps and this was the easiest way to do it

[@kiraboslet4777]

You could make a reversible jacket or vest with the rest of the quilt fabric

[@WellLoved]

i'm still deciding what i'm going to make, but those are fun ideas!

[@carolyngrotaers4454]

@@WellLoved Regarding the quilted top - which I'm going to try to make, I'm curious, are there a total of 3 ties on the back? If so...Just wondering why you didn't put elastic on the skirt back part of the top.

[@mariawaldner4908]

My god your quilted top came out way cuter than that one on the picture 😍 Your flips are amazing!!! 🙌🏼❤️😍🤩

[@WellLoved]

thank you!! I LOVE how it turned out!

You can make a matching bag to go with the orange top, using the videos of Don Kim as inspo!

[@WellLoved]

Thanks!

[@lynettebunac9565]

I want to recreate that quilt top! But it was so difficult for me to follow your directions…my problem thought, not yours. Gonna have to think it through once it is in front of me

[@WellLoved]

it's definitely an intricate make! happy sewing!

[@dorisamstutz5888]

I am wondering why you did the little angle thing with the bias binding? Since bias binding is meant to go around a curve wouldn’t it have worked without doing that?

[@as5592]

Thank you Doris for that info!!

[@WellLoved]

I needed a sharper dip since the straps were going to be made from the same piece of bias tape as the arm drop, so putting that angle in allowed for the depth that i needed to get the straps at the right angle and have the bias tape lay flat under the arms

[@AliFromSoCali]

Omgosh!!! I didnt watch all the way through your video. You outdid yourself. The yellow check dress is adorable but this top is...TOO DIE FOR!!!! I WANT ONE. CAN I hire you as my seam stress? I'm dead serious! If I send you the fabric and/or thrift find plus my measurements can I pay you to make me a top like this orange and pink one. I've developed a love of both Orange and magenta over this past summer (two colors I was never a big fan of). I usually am a fan of neutrals in my clothing and Leopard print, but my all time favorite white. There is an elderly lady in our small remote Desert town, that does very simple fix it's for me, but she is no designer/seamstress. I have two sewing machines and took many sewing lessons as a teen, but dont have the patience or the room in our small cluttered home. Speaking of clutter, I am a thrift shop junkie and could hook you up with so many things you would love that I've been collecting over the years, some of which is true vintage (50s, 60s, 70s, 80s...and dare I say 90s, which I cannot believe is now considered vintage, yikes, lol!). Please email me at: [e-mail]. Let's chat!
