I get Martha's emails daily and in this particular one, I laid eyes on this Shirt dress made from Daddy's (or any available men's) shirt. It is not a new concept but I was so very was glad to see that there was a printable pattern for it. I am a sucker for patterns and templates. Yes, I can probably do a decent freehand for the many things I want to sew but the perfectionist in me starts screaming "Where's the template? No template? Move on!" or "Use the template!" One day, maybe I will hear... "You got this; freehand it baby!" Yeah.... maybe.
I did not make it out of a shirt but with about a yard of fabric, instead. With the rainy weather and the falling of leaves, I felt the urge to use this print out of my flannel stash. I purchased this fabric last fall. This is my first sewing project since July. I supposed because I have talked his ears off about sewing again to the point that hubby took the kids and let me sew in peace; he tried his best, anyway.Oh and the tie can be detached and used as a headband =) Purdeeeee....
