Description

I decided to use up some of my old stash of fabrics and off cuts to try to make some dresses for the above charity and these were the results. the pink ones are pillowcases with an onld tunic top cut to make a skirt for one of them. The blue ones are ikea pillowcases with some homemade yo-yos and bias binding. The small ones, red polkadot,blue flower and orange kiddy pattern dresses are all made from the Burda slip over pattern of last year, i made them to a size 2 as they were good for smaller pieces of fabric.

Material Notes

Various, cottons, polyester cotton mixes etc

    Adorable, wonderful of you to be so thoughtful, know they will be appreciated and well loved. My neighbor and I do a lot of charity work like this, men’s shirts are a great fabric resource too.
