Connie over at This Old Dress posted this great dress design from take off your clothes*:
What’s so great about it, you say? It’s made from two t-shirts sewn together at their necklines. The hem of the top one becomes the cowl, and the hem of the bottom becomes the…bottom. Invert some sleeves for pockets and you’ve got yourself a dress, missy!
The dresses are for sale on Etsy, but I think this would be such a fun and easy project with uber comfy results. Now, who do I know with a sewing machine… Millie? Mum? As-yet-unknown-internet-reader who will become my new best friend? Eh? Eh?
*The name “take off your clothes” always reminds me of the Nelly song with the lyric, “It’s getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes.” That song was huge the summer my friend worked at a day camp, and they spent months trying to convince the kids to sing, “It’s getting hot in here, so turn on the A.C.” Didn’t work so well.
It does seem like it would be an easy enough DIY! Good luck with it, and I hope you’ll show us the results!
That looks very cool. I wonder if we can find a DIY video for it.
I couldn’t find a video.
SUCH an awesome idea! I hope to try that this weekend, perhaps!
