Every mother wants her child to look stylish and fashionable. We love to dress up girls in bright dresses and want them to be original. Children's clothing in stores is just as expensive as adult clothing, and resourceful mothers give advice on how to save the family budget, and how to sew beautiful new clothes for your child from old unnecessary clothes. If there is a sewing machine in the house, even a mother who is inexperienced in sewing can make a new dress for her daughter.
The most affordable way to update your daughter's wardrobe is to turn her mother's T-shirt into an exclusive dress.
What do you need to turn a T-shirt into a dress?
- Old T-shirt. You can take a bodysuit, a T-shirt or a long sleeve;
- A small piece of cute fabric for sewing a hem;
- A piece of fabric or lace for making a flower or bow on a dress;
- A little inspiration and imagination.

- You need to take a T-shirt and lay it out at your workplace.
- Cut the bottom so that the edge of the product ends at the level of the child’s waist.
- If the top is too wide, you need to narrow it.To do this, cut off pieces of excess fabric on the sides.
- Sew from the wrong side of the side.
- Take a piece of fabric for the hem and iron it.
- Fold the material in half and carefully sew it from the wrong side.
- Sew the bottom of the fabric, folding it twice, approximately 1 cm wide.
- Sew the top of the future skirt with the largest stitch on a sewing machine, stepping back a few millimeters from the edge.
- Pull the thread so that you get even folds and the width of the hem of the skirt matches the width of the bottom of the cut T-shirt.
- Connect the top and hem so that the seam of the hem coincides with the middle of the back.
- Baste the bottom and top, joining the edges of the fabric evenly to each other.
- Sew using a machine, 1 cm from the edge.
- Unravel the basting thread.
- If technically possible, pass the seam through an overlocker.
- Decorate the product to your liking. You can take a piece of the material from which you sewed the hem and make a bow from it. Then sew it like a brooch to the front of the T-shirt.
The dress is ready!
