Pillowcase Dress
"Easiest Pillowcase dress. A video tutorial on how to make these very easy dresses for children! The sample shown was made with a vintage pillow case purchased at the thrift store. It already had the ruffle on the bottom, so that added to the ease of sewing this cute dress. This dress could even be used as a Flower Girl dress for a wedding ensemble. Very easy to make using ironed creases as opposed to measuring makes this job a very simple one! "
NotesThe techniques used in this project make sewing a pillowcase into a dress very simple.
