Sewing Saturday

Don let me sew for a few hours today and I was able to make each girl 1 1/2 dresses! I bought t-shirts at WalMart for $4, and then bought coordinating fabric for $4, so for $8 each (plus my time, which is invaluable, of course) they have matching dresses that they'll wear at Disneyland. I think they look adorable. I'm planning on finding bike shorts for them to wear underneath so they can be modest when they twirl...

Hey Cathi I love these - Do you have a pattern for them or do you just "wing it."

Maggie, I used these instructions: http://www.lovetosew.com/tshirtdress.htm and I'd say I averaged a dress an hour...

Thanks Cathi - I'm going to try for Katie. I bet I can make her a couple of adorable uniforms for school.
