Sundresses! Welcome in the Spring! Make or purchase (Paisely sold) for $10.00...and LOOK!!!...FOR BOWS MADE TO MATCH AT WWW.CUTIEBOWS.BLOGSPOT.C





This is the easiest sundress to make and perfect for welcoming the Spring!! It is can be made for babies, toddlers, girls, and adults!All you need is 1/2 to 3/4 yard of the wrinkly material (I can never remember what that is called...anyone?) and same for the bottom portion of the dress (1/2 to 3/4 yard.) If you want to make one adult size sundress and 2 baby ones...just make sure you buy 1 yard of both. The wrinkly part will need to be zigzagged where ever you cut. I made these when I was hot and pregnant and with the left over material...which I hate to waste...I made two baby sized sundresses. It probably cost me 10-$15.00 to do all three in the one pattern. Oh...and you can buy a cute ribbon to match for a one strap dress that will wrap around the back of the neck. You can wear with or without a matching shirt underneath...both look cute! For my baby, she wears a onesie underneath. This is her Easter Dress(es) this year! Note: Paisley one needs hemmed and the strap sewn on still) Don't let "gathering" scare you. All you have to do is a spread out "baste" stitch and pull on one out of the two threads when you are done sewing a straight stitch before pinning it onto the wrinkly top. This is a 20 minute project that looks like it took hours to make!
