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. ...
Love It Hana! :)

DeleteWhat a super shirt Hana - your husband looks great in it. Haven't made one for my DH yet.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah! It's a little tricky to work on a men's shirt but I think is really fun to make.
DeleteHi Hana, great shirt! Can I ask what type of interfacing did you use for the collar? I struggle to find the right stiffness; either too stiff or not stiff enough...
ReplyDeleteHi Belinda! Thanks for your compliment. I used medium weight fusible interfacing for the collar and light weight for the plackets.
DeleteThe shirt looks very professional! Great job
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, AriB:-)
