Pillow Case Dress

Instructions

Things You'll Need

• Pillowcase
• Thread in a complementary color
• 1 yard of rickrack (optional)
• Two 6-inch elastics
• Two 10-inch ribbons

1. • 1
     Wash, starch and iron the pillowcase.
   • 2
     Measure the desired length of the dress, beginning at the girl's collarbone. The wide hem of the pillowcase will be the bottom of the dress with this dress pattern. Make a pencil or chalk line on the pillowcase to reflect the desired length plus 1 inch.
   • 3
     Mark cutting lines for the armholes, shaped like the letter "J" on the left side of the dress and a backward "J" on the right side of the dress. These should be 3 to 4 inches deep, depending on the size of the child. (This is a sleeveless dress.)
   • 4
     Fold and press both sides of the top (neck) part of the pillowcase 1/4 inch from the top and again at 3/4 inches.
   • 5
     Stitch along the first fold to make a casing for the elastic; the casing should be like a tunnel.
   • 6
     Thread 6 inches of elastic through each casing and secure the ends with a safety pin temporarily. Stitch across the ends of each casing to hold the elastic in place. It will gather and form a neckline.
   • 7
     Fold, press and pin the arm holes using the ribbon as binding. The ends of the ribbon will extend past the edges of the armholes to be tied at the shoulders.
   • 8
     Sew the seam.
