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. ...
This is lovely. I have a one yard piece for a bolero.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dot, can not wait to see your bolero :)
DeleteYou did a great job matching the lines; the top looks so beautiful. It will definitely look great with the tank top.
ReplyDeleteThank you sweet friend :)
DeleteVery lovely! I especially love your fabric choice. The top looks comfortable and pretty. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Eli :)
DeleteA very pretty top. The lace is lovely and your work is beautiful as usual. .
ReplyDeleteThank you Kathy :) :)
DeleteVery pretty, and with a see through lace your very neat work is nicely shown. You will need a dark underlayer, not just for modesty, but also to show that there is a nice figure underneath. A very lovely set.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sarah Liz :) :)
DeleteYou did a fantastic job of matching the lace lines and I love everything about this gorgeous crop top! Super cute with the coordinating tank top underneath. You might could even wear it over one of your pretty dresses, like the one you are wearing in your profile pic? So pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lisa. I was thinking about that, I have dark blue knit in stash that will be lovely to wear with the top :)
DeleteBeautiful.. Love the color..
ReplyDeleteIt will look fantastic on you. Happy sewing.
Thank you Judy. Will be posting the picture of me wearing it in the future :)
DeleteThis is lovely! Matching the lace must be quite tedious but you did a great job. These two pieces would be lovely to wear in the spring and autumn.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lovenicky. It was a quite tedious working with lace, I will avoid buy lace fabric in the future :(
