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. ...

DIY Square Neck Dress

By -


Hi there, happy weekend 🌸🌸
I made a square neck dress to wear during my holiday last month and was happy with the result. The dress was easy to sew, and the fit was perfect for hot summer weather. The design was a simple short-sleeved dress with the addition of sweet a square neck.
For the fabric, I used printed cotton that I bought in Bangkok in the last Easter holiday.
And for the pattern, used my self-drafted. I made two dresses before using this pattern. The first dress was made in June last year using linen blend fabric, link here. The second dress was made in July last year using printed cotton fabric, link here

.

This time, I made the back neck in a round style and also reduced 1 cm to the square neck because the previous dresses were a bit bigger and made the square neck gaping.

I worked on the neckline after I stitched the darts, and zipper and connected the pieces together.
As usual, I fused the fusible interfacing on the facings before sewing them together.

I pinned the facing to the neckline, stitched it and clipped the corners using the scissors.

The square neck was neat and I secured the facing with hand-sewing. 


And then, I did the rest of the sewing according to the usual manner, and my dress was done. 
I loved the result.







I wore the dress to dinner, it was my son's birthday, and I also wore it the next day exploring Benchakitti Park, Bangkok. And I was really blended with the green 😃
