I wanted to make something that celebrated 4th of July. What it=s more American than the flag. In USA it is illegal to destroy a flag, except for when it is basically destroyed and it is time for a replacement. So, I got 2 yards of red and white fabric, cut it into strips, sewed them up from the top and attached them to sequined two-way stretch fabric. I added some of my bellydance jewelry to represent the stars, some heels from pin up girl store, and voila! I had a cute new dress.
