The Infamous Pillowcase Dress...
I know millions of these dresses have been made....(Actually, it's the very first thing I learned to sew), but I can't help it...I still love them! I learned to sew when my 8 year old daughter was 3. I now have another baby girl, and it has been soooo much fun sewing for an itty bitty girl! I decided on a pillowcase dress because this dress is limited to October, and I kind of got a late start. She can wear it next year as a tunic top with leggings (I like it with leggings this year too!). My oldest daughter has gotten as many as three years out of her pillowcase dresses! I can't wait to see her in it, but it isn't worth waking her up from her nap...almost, but not quite!

How sweet! They grow so fast! Leggings are a lifesaver!

I LOVE the little trick-or-treater fabric! It's adorable! And that orance polka dot fabric complements it so well. This is such a cute dress. I've never made a pillowcase dress, but I'd love to try.
ReplyDeleteI don't have any girls (I wish!) but I do like to make these dresses for gifts for people with girls. I usually use ribbon for the tie. But that looks like you just made a tie out of fabric? Any tips with that? It turned out really, really cute!
ReplyDeleteDefinitley adorable! Wish my boys would let me put dresses on them! :)

Well I have never seen a pillow case dress. It is just darling, thanks for sharing it. I think I'll try making for my grand daughters.
