DIY V-neck T-shirt Dress

Image
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. ...

Candy Tote Bag

I named this tote bag "CANDY" because she looks colourful and sweet:)
I made several bag with several colours, I think I am crazy enough to made 4 tote bags in one week. I was busy and always be, taking care my sweet little baby. I only have time to sewing when my baby napping in the afternoon.
I showed my first candy bag to my husband when he arrived home after work, and he was surprised that I could finish one bag during two hours. Woah...! Even myself was surprised!

Here I made four candy bags already but I am going to make one more. I will give all of them for my cousins in Indonesia as holiday gift. I am sure they will love it:)



The size of the bag approximately 24 cm height, 35 cm weight and 8 cm deep.
Material needed:
- Home decor fabric
- Cotton as interfacing
- Bias tape, I used bias tape from japanesse cotton.
- 56 cm ykk zipper
- Heavy duty interfacing for bottom bag



The four candy bags are really cute, isn't it? I imagine that they are real candy that I could eat it all:)
I think I am really starving for candy right now.








Well, I only posting the pictures of my project for now. I will post the pattern and tutorial another time.
I also shared this project on --candy tote bag-- on www.Burdastyle.com
