I'm trying to remember, but I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've made a pillowcase dress. It's the perfect beginner project, but somehow I skipped over it. Better late than never, I guess!
This one has an extra wide sash at the top and a fun ruffle at the bottom.
And I made a slit in the back so I can tie the sash at the shoulder or in the back.
My daughter loves to spread the skirt out to cover her legs :)
The best part about this simple little dress is the part you can't see in pictures. The fabric is incredibly light and thin - the next best thing to being naked on a hot summer day. In fact, if it wasn't for the huge bright flowers and the fact that she's 4, I would've had to line it.
That's it for now. Happy Weekend!
I like the idea of the slit in the back to tie it in the back!
ReplyDeleteCute!!
ReplyDeleteAren't they easy and fun? I love the little ruffle at the bottom :)
ReplyDeleteWhere could I find this pattern??? I love it!
ReplyDeleteI like what you've done with the back - my daughter always gets annoyed at dangly side bows.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful- great idea making a slit in the back.
