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

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!!! ☺❤

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!

I don’t know why I’m so entranced watching you design and sew. You have such a gift. I would never attempt what you do but it is interesting to see.

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!!!

Gorgeous upcycles! Especially the orange top. Wow!!

[LoideNghidengwa]

Both are great. I like the yellow gingham dress the most.

Adey, you are an amazing seamstress...great job, I love both pieces !!! 🐶🧵😻

[dorisamstutz]

Love the quilted top. The open back looks great!

[DontBeDeceived.]

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!

Fabulous tops I love it’s just like the way you see it’s… beautiful, beautiful 💖🙋‍♀️💖

Cute! The orange one looks like a maternity top.

[sues]

That checkered dress came out really cute!

[clairvoyant]

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

[gailfelker]

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!

[lorrainedempsey]

Such a GREAT idea. Your yellow dress is beautiful. I love upcycling so much.!!!

[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

[auntiezann]

Your quilted top is SO much cuter than your inspiration piece! You are so creative!
