Awhile back, my grandma gave me an old silk shirt of hers to use for fabric. It's been hanging in my closet, until eureka! I finally figured out what to do with it.
I used the button band as a fun accent at the center back of this high- waisted pencil skirt as the closure (with snaps between buttons so there are no gaps), and the shirt front's original hem opening as a pleat. The waistband came from the sleeves.
Oh, how I love to reuse and recycle ;)
