T-shirts have to be the most comfortable and practical articles of clothing ever invented. Nothing equals the cuddly softness of a t-shirt and the ease that they can be worn then tossed into the wash with no fuss necessary. However, t-shirts are not dressy enough to wear to certain functions but what if you could have the best of both worlds? What if you could make a comfortable, cozy t-shirt that was long enough to wear as a dress? These questions are answered in this amazing video by Kera Metta where she makes a beautiful semi-formal looking dress that is perfect to wear casually, to church, or to special functions such as a baby or wedding shower where you want to look nice but want the comfort of a loose fitting cozy t-shirt. The best thing about this t-shirt dress tutorial is the fact that you do not need a pattern, all you need is an old t-shirt to use as a pattern and draw out your pattern on leftover wrapping paper and cut out the pattern very simply.
Materials:
- 2 yards of t-shirt stretch jersey material
- A sewing machine
- Thread
- Scissors
- Wonder Clips (or pins)
- An old t-shirt to use as a pattern
Directions:
In the video, you will learn to make a pattern from one of your own t-shirts, drawing the new pattern on some old gift wrap paper that you will use as a guide for your own size and sleeve length.
Then you will be guided step by step to put this gorgeous dress together fro start to finish.
This is an amazing tutorial, so glad I found this. I can’t wait to make this dress.
