Before & After | Liberty Print Dress

My friends know that I like to sew and make things so I often get fabrics and clothes donated. Recently my friend gave me a bag full of clothes she no longer wears. She is a sewer as well, and showed me her failed attempt to make a top with a jersey in red floral liberty print. Although liberty print is a bit too young and cutesy for me, I love it on little girls. When I got this top, I immediately thought of easy tube dress for Kiko.

It was an easy project that took less than hour. I cut the top in the length I wanted, added elastic around the top and attached shoulder straps.

I made this at night after Kiko went to bed. She goes to bed at 7pm and after that is my sewing time. I placed the finished dress right next to her bed while she was sleeping, so when she woke up in the morning, there was a little surprise beside her.

Check out this, this and this to see what else I’ve made her recently.

私が洋裁を好きなことを知っているからか、ランダムに友達から使わない布や、洋服をいただくことがあります。
最近も、バッグ一杯、頂きました笑
これはその中からのリメイク品。
大人用トップスだったのですが、リバティープリントは私にはかわいすぎるので、子供用のチューブドレスにしました。

夜に作って、寝ている間こっそり枕元に。
朝見つけて、子供に喜んでもらえるのが嬉しいです。
