Pillowcase Dresses

Pillowcase dresses have been made for years.  Its a very easy sewing project even for beginners and, even better, really cheap.  Yesterday I stopped a thrift shop and bought 4 pillowcases for $1.39 each.  I also picked up some lacy edging there too...enough to go around the bottoms of two of the pillowcases that were plain.  The edging was only $0.85 total.  Hancock Fabrics was having a March Madness 50% off sale on  notions.  I bought matching thread and extra wide double biased tape for the arm holes. That's all you need.  Last night after I put the kids to bed I got busy sewing.  It took me about 3 hours to make all 4 pillowcase dress. Because the drawstring makes them very adjustable Danica will be able to wear them as dresses this summer and shirts next summer for sure, if not the next 2 summers.  This is how they turned out.
