DIY V-neck T-shirt Dress
Hi there, I hope you are well. I had a leftover knit cotton fabric in a lovely printed pink and decided to make a simple summer dress with it. I was checking my summer wardrobe last month and it lacked t-shirt dresses and some summer tops. So, I started to sew this t-shirt dress and will continue following my plans. For the pattern, I used my self-drafted t-shirt pattern and lengthened it above my knee. And here are the pattern pieces: - Front (on fold) 1x - Back (on fold) 1x - Neckband 57 cm long x 5 cm wide. The sewing process was easy and fast. I did it in three hours. It started with sewing the shoulder lines together and the dress sides together using my overlocker machine. And then sewed the V-neckband piece and attached it to the neckline. I sewed around the neckline with a sewing machine first and covered the raw edge using an overlocker machine. And top-stitched the neckline 0.25 cm using a sewing machine. ...
Beautiful projects Hana! The red cowl top is a great color on you and you know I love a pretty dress...and yours is a pretty one!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your sweet comment, Margo! My jersey cowl top is in strong pink color, but it look red in the picture:)
DeleteI love your version of the dress - I have plans to make the top and extend to dress for my DD.
ReplyDeleteThank you, jacquianne! I am looking forward to see your top and dress for your DD.
DeleteAll such pretty little garments again- I like them all, all quite different moods. The dress length for the burda tie top looks lovely - the belt is a good idea or it would be a big tent. I am glad your little boy is better.

ReplyDeleteHi Hana, as usual they're all lovely. The burda top looks like a wardrobe staple for the tropics (I need to download it). And I agree, the pink (looks red in the pics), top is a great colour for you.
