Description
This is sort of the basic structure for my dresses, I don’t really use a pattern all my outfits are made to fit using what I call the tshirt method (if it has another name I don’t know about let me know) What I really enjoy about it is the flexibility, you can really do just about anything with it, add subtract, change the straps, or add sleeves you can adjust the neckline and embelishments!. So Here is my How to I hope you find it useful. Please excuse the multitude of differnt fabrics, dresses, poor grammar and god awful spelling! i’m working on like 4 dresses simultanously, so I just chronicled the various steps using whichever dress I had at the moment.

I’m looking forward to seeing the photo of the finished product and giving this a try. But what is a tshirt pattern and how do you get that first piece that you show in step 2 and 3? Is it from a tshirt of your childs??? Sorry, I just don’t have a clue and need help understanding. Thanks:)
