I really wanted to sew a dress for my toddler but I didn't want to go out and buy a bunch of materials. So I took an old black tee shirt and a cream colored jersey sheet and cut them up. I used one of my daughter's dresses to trace an outline of the dress I wanted to create. I cut up the sheet and tee shirt and made sure I had plenty extra in case I messed up.
I took the tee shirt and ironed creases in it and made a make shift binding. I pinned it to the top, bottom and arm holes. I sewed it on with black thread on my sewing machine.
This is what each side looked liked before I sewed them together.
And this is what it looked like when I finished. She was really happy that I had made her something.
