Here's my do-it-yourself One of a Kind dress for under $10
Fabric: $2 (2 yards @ $1/yd from Walmart)
Pattern: $1 on sale at Joann's.
I may even wear it to church!
Tips:
- Go for it! With fabric that cheap, even if you never wear, it's good sewing practice. I bought the whole bolt of fabric. Should I sew an overcoat, hat, and purse to match??
- Don't give up. The neck band gave me some trouble, but the 3rd time was a charm.
Hooray for National Sewing month! I'm glad you accepted my challenge, and I must say it looks good! If you have enough fabric leftover, you could do a contrasting colored piping on the current hem and add another few inches with the same fabric as the dress. Good job!
ReplyDeleteWay to sew Becky....maybe you can teach me when I get out of here. :)
