#mendMAY Fear No More

As I was looking for something else, I found this gif that I made five years ago:
"I was going to sew up something in one of my more gauzy, transparent fabrics for this week's prompt. I have not gotten very far:

Fear of cutting into fabric anyone?"

I have STILL not cut into two of these! The one that I did, has issues.

You can't tell from the (blurry) photo, this tunic is "sticky". It clings to cotton leggings and is too short to wear with uncovered thighs. I tried fastening a bunch of safety pins at the hem to give it more heft, but that didn't work. Maybe if I stitch a chain at the hem? Or would an edging with dingle balls work? Do I have dingle balls in the house? Maybe make it longer? All questions to ponder.
