This looks like a very comfy dress and I like that it is made from a tee shirt pattern and you can use any fabric you like. I like that you can make it long or short sleeve. You have to download the pattern but I am sure you can use one of your tee shirts that is comfy. I do like that I can choose how the length of the dress too. Make more than one. Maxi,mid length and short. This is a great idea. Thanks.

In order to make up this dress, you first need to download a free pattern for a tee shirt. I prefer to make dresses with a sleeve, but this tee shirt pattern comes with long or short sleeves, so it should be easy to incorporate sleeves into the dress. Basically its just a matter of tracing off the tee shirt pattern and then adding the length you would like for the dress. Be careful if you choose a pattern like the dress in the example, as you will need to match up the stripes.
