I bought a dress from Target on clearance for $6. However, the dress was a bit too short for my liking. And come to find out, a dear friend of mine bought the same dress but a different color. To fix that, I whipstitched a lace trimming to the bottom while watching reruns of Everybody Loves Raymond. Love that show!

I love it! What a cute idea…
where did you get the lace trim? That is so much easier than trying to make a ruffle to make clothes more appropriate in length.
I got the lace trim at JoAnn. It matched so well with the dress. I loved it.
