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 ...

Women T-shirt With Hole Cut-Out In The Shoulder

By -
Hi everyone!
I didn't sew anything since I came back from holiday. I have been busy but luckily things are settle-down and I will hopefully be back to sewing very soon :)

And as I didn't make a new project, I'd like to show you the t-shirt that I made before going to holiday. It was a fun t-shirt to make. I like the hole cut-out in the shoulder, it makes the t-shirt cuter and stylish. But to sew it is a little bit tricky, especially at the neckline area.

The idea of making this t-shirt came out suddenly when I was looking at the leftover fabric from my husband pajama shorts. I love the green knit cotton and it deserved something more stylish than normal tee. Then I remember that I have an old Burda magazine pattern that I want to try.
After I worked on the pattern and sewing it, the result is just lovely and I like it :)

Pattern And Modifications:
Burda magazine June 2008 - 123 size 34. I have to draw new line of the pattern for size 34 because the minimum size from the original pattern is 36.
I changed the 3/4 sleeve length to short sleeve and also shortened the length of the t-shirt.

The sewing process is fine, as I mentioned above the tricky part is to sew the neckline but I am glad that I managed to finish it nicely. And for finishes the sleeve hem and hemline, I just used the twin needle.

Well, I am not going to say more about my sewing process, but I'd show you more pictures of me wearing the t-shirt.




Have a lovely day to you all :-)

    Oh, that shirt is beautiful !! The neck and shoulders look very flattering, I think it is "seductive". You definitely chose the perfect pattern for that pretty fabric!

    I'm late commenting :). Isn't it lovely to be able to use leftovers to make a garment you always wanted to make? As Rosy says, the top is seductive, but very nicely so. Looks fantastic with the shorts. Happy wearing...
