My dress is finished! And it was the perfect wardrobe for our afternoon outing.
I started with a men's white linen shirt, mixed up the original dress pattern a bit, and added new buttons.For more info and details, please hop over to MADE. Can't wait to see what you all come up with! We still have 1/2 a month left. Maybe I have one more up my sleeve....?

Oohhh, nice!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of the tie-and it's sleeveless! And the buttons are lovely. I heart buttons.

PS I will be completing another shirt dress (I hope) in time to post a link. Stay tuned-this time I will remember the seam allowances!
Didn't that turn out cute! So fresh and perfect for Spring and summer picnics. (with a bleach pen for afterward :) My sewing machine has been in storage and is coming out in two days. I can't wait to try this.
ReplyDeleteaww, love the gathered straps and the white fabric. perfect for warm weather. I was thinking about doing this project but I just don't have any little girls around to make a dress for. Oh, well. It's still nice to see everyone's designs.
ReplyDeleteI really like how your shirt dress turned out! So cute! I never thought about changing the buttons, but what a fun touch!
ReplyDeleteso cute. I've got my first dress almost done. Maybe by Monday. but I don't think my pictures will ever be as good as yours. so talented
ReplyDeletethere's nothing like linen! i think the buttons give it just the right amount of summer color!
