Before: This dress was a real bargain at Ross
but was two inches too short.
After: In an amazing stroke of good luck, we found the exact same fabric at our local fabric store, so I just let out the hem of the dress and sewed a two-inch band of fabric to the bottom. (I actually doubled it so there is no stitching showing.) You could also do the same technique by buying two of the same dress if it's really cheap.
