Cropped cardi

An ebay seller gave me a bag of clothes that were damaged, stained, torn and unsellable.  They wouldn’t be taken by thrift shops, and would have undoubtably ended up in landfill.

I got my Christmas present early this year, an overlocker.  This is the first time I have put it to good use.  Two items picked from the bag of disrepair; a cropped dusty pink cardi, and a stained 80′s white big shoulder padded glitter top.

Using my overlocker, I cut and serged two sections of the sheer glitter fabric, and stitched onto the bottom of the cardi

And herewith a new cropped cardi for my wardrobe, saving two items of clothing from landfill, hurrah
