skirt with pockets

This began as a thrift store dress I found at a Value Village in Seattle in the "ethnic" section. Where I belong, I feel.
It came off the rack as a traditional, salwar kameeze type of Indian dress with short sleeves and the high neck. Probably a few sizes too big.
On a whim tonight, I turned the dress into a skirt, and decided to add pockets.
Pros: this turned out to be a quick little bonus sewing project. This dress had the honors of hanging in my closet (which meant I was flirting with the idea of wearing it) and wasn't even in my stash!
Cons: Regretfully, I still have lots of obligatory sewing projects to do.
