Tee Shirt Dresses for Little Girls

Update!!!!!  Here are some completed tee shirt dresses.        My new project is using tee shirts as the basis for little girls' dresses.  Not meaning the use of old tees cut up to form a dress, but using a tee or tank as the top part of a dress.

The nice part about this project is that the top is complete and knowing the size of the girl will result in a dress that will probably fit.  Tee tops also means an ease of dressing and a relaxed comfortable outfit.

One can purchase tees of all types, including ready designed ones, cheap ones, those that are too short but still fit well, simple utilitarian tops that can be embellished with appliques, ribbons, pockets.  Sewing for a child who lives far away is very difficult as true measurements are hard to take, however, using the tee as basis will most likely result in a dress that will fit well even if fittings are impossible to make while sewing.

I will post my projects over the next few weeks.  Hope this idea is of interest.

    Sewing, machine embroidery, paper-craft, and stamping are my hobbies. At the moment die-cutting paper craft is my favorite, and I am sharing my projects with you on this website.

    If you're not giving every project away, sharing is the second best thing to enjoy; I hope you will enjoy the ideas and be inspired to do your own thing.

    Crafting gives me a sense of calm and accomplishment, and for me it's like the apple a day that keeps the doctor away.
