This dress was really fun to make! It wasn’t overly complicated and came out pretty nicely. Unfortunately I don’t have a full body shot of me in it quite yet, but once I do I’ll post it because the bottom of the dress is really nice. I’m so happy with this!

Thanks so much guys! I was so lucky to find this fabric, it was so cheap too! And it has this nice border type thing at the bottom so it looks really professional. This whole dress cost me about 5 dollars to make. Love it.

Aren’t bedsheets handy? Yards of fabric for practically nothing. You certainly put yours to great use, the dress is so pretty!
