Sewing Indie Month, The Hackers Part 3

We're down to the final stretch!!!! Today is the last day that you can enter your creations for a chance to win all the fabulous prizes. Now, it is early and there's a full day and night ahead of you, so there's still time to hack away. Take a look a the free patterns that are being offered here, http://www.rhondabuss.blogspot.com/2014/05/sewing-indie-for-free.html. Just download one and off you go. A great hack could be something as simple as taking the Skinny Bitch Curvy Chick Tee, chopping it at the waist and adding a gathered skirt. It doesn't get any easier than that!  So please don't miss out on a great opportunity!
Now, we've had a few more hackers come in since yesterday.
This is a hack of the Mathilde Blouse from Tilly and the Buttons. By lengthening the pattern and making a few other alterations, http://www.emmakespatterns.com/blog/2014/6/2/mqowvnt0cml3hh3lwosu6b38xntucr came up with a cute and versatile summer dress.

This is a second hack from http://thehobbyharbor.blogspot.in/2014/06/Kristen-Tee-Free-Sewing-Pattern.html. Believe it or not, this is the Kirsten Kimono Tee from MariaDenmark. By the way, this is a free pattern :)
