May's project : the Shirt Dress by Dana


So this month we are going to use the tutorial by the ever talented Dana (our guest blogger this month) on how to make a little girl's dress with a men's dress shirt.
I feel like this is especially pertinent because we just had earth day. It's a great chance to reuse an old shirt from your husband's closet or a thrift store. I hope everyone will participate (even if you are like me and don't have a little girl - this will make a great gift).

That's all for now. I will let Dana take it from here.

p.s. I think Dana's photos of her little girl in the dress are adorable.
