I found this great pillowcase on sale on Crate and Barrel, and made this cute dress for my little girl. Now let’s just hope summer comes sooner than later!

I love it that you used a pillowcase for this dress! I’m currently making a quilt out of vintage pillowcases, we’re heading into winter now, and I was caught by surprise when I moved to a higher altitude last year. I love all the different fabrics you can find (some surprising!), and there’s quite a lot of material once you cut of the seams.
