DIY Sleeveless Shirt Dress

Hi there, I finished my sleeveless shirt dress, and I'm happy with the final result. The dress is comfy and perfect for summer. I will definitely wear it a lot.  This summer, I'm focusing on building my capsule wardrobe, and I'm glad I managed to create three garments (a skirt, top, and sleeveless dress).  I will continue sewing more garments to complete my plan. My progress will be slow, but I'm sure I will complete it before the end of the summer 😊 For the pattern, I used Faitmain shirt dress May 2019 size 38 and I used this pattern before to make two long-sleeved shirts. And this time, I omitted the sleeves and reduced the shoulder length by 2 cm. I used cotton fabric in blue and white gingham and I planned to add a pocket, but in the end, I gave up because it didn't look good. The sewing progress was slow as I have a lot of things to do. The only difficult part was sewing the collar.  And in case you are interested in seeing ...

 Meg from elsiemarley.com was throwing the challenge called kids weeks clothes challenge fall 2012. I decided to joint in and this pants is one of the project for the challenge. It was very busy week but I tried to put myself to sew at least one hour during 7 days. And I am very happy with my work. The pants fit my son very well.

I used the pattern from burda magazine june 2008, originally is 3/4 pants for kid. The pattern has 6 pockets in total, 2 pieces front pocket, 2 pieces back pocket and 2 pieces side pocket. I added length to the pattern and inserted elastic inside the waistband.
Material for this pants is 1 yard black cotton and using same colour thread.
