Description

I made a dress from the tee pattern, by just lengthening it without any width alteration. I also added some rows of elastic shirring at low waist, for blousing the top half of the dress. It was so quick! (FYI: I cut the front and back body parts separately because of those stripes to match, so it’s no longer 1 piece but I’d name it “1 piece Kimono Tee dress” with my deepest respect.)
