Hola #needleworkers feliz noche.
Hello #needleworkers, happy evening.
It's a bit of a chilly afternoon here in my city because winter is coming soon and I was finishing a simple basic garment, I'll tell you that it's a dress to be at home that I had let's say the bust piece or the top part of the dress, but I was missing applying a skirt underneath, then it occurred to me that I had some fabric left over from the oversize dress that I had made a few days ago, so what I did was nothing more and nothing less than applying that missing fabric underneath and thus complete the dress since the top part as you can see is a t-shirt but since it was too short and I didn't want to lose it the time had come to make another piece.
Since I love transforming clothes and turning them into another useful garment, this was my opportunity to make this simple dress. It seemed to me that it is a piece that we can make if those T-shirts are already too short for us or we think that they look good in a dress, and what we could do is extend the skirt with another type of fabric, likewise this can also occur to us to make dresses for girls that the T-shirts do not use and even to make overalls with fabric that stretches of course since they mold to the body and are fresh, since this dress is to be at home the appropriate thing was to put a fabric of the same one that comes with the bust piece, a soft and fresh fabric and the ideal was micropeach.
Pasos a seguir://Steps to follow:
Paso 01
Step 01
The first thing we will do is cut a piece from the bottom of the dress, that is, the skirt, and to make it shorter, I made it 43 cm long x 26.5 cm wide. Then, at the waist, I cut from both sides, folding the fabric in equal parts. I made a drop, which is the waist part, so that it doesn't look like a square. I measured this with a tape measure; you can do it with a large ruler.
Paso 02
Step 02
Then it's time to cut the hem of my shirt with my scissors because the ideal would be to sew the skirt piece to the blouse and so that it has a better finish we will cut it, (Note: if our shirt is very short we will have to unstitch the hem and iron it) so then we will take one of our pins and we will join the pieces of the skirt of the dress side by side with a pin to start sewing from that tip on the side of the hips to the bottom of the piece, double the fabric we sew it along the edge.

Step 03
I will then sew the bottom part of the piece because it will be our edge for the hem that we will make later with a straight machine. With a pin, we will again join the open piece to the flannel on the opposite side so that we can sew it along the edge on the inside, of course.
Paso 04
Step 04
This is how the overlock seam looks like. Next, I sew the top waistband of the shirt with a straight seam. I'm going to finish the overlock seam to prevent the thread from showing, coming loose, or any other accident that could happen when we put on the garment.
Paso 05
Step 05
As a final detail, I made a 2 cm hem inside the dress and sewed it all around the bottom, and we have the hem ready.
Resultado:// Result:
To give the garment a better finish, you can choose to iron it. This is how it looks. The truth is, I found it very simple and easy to do, and well, this is how we can save those garments that we think have no repair or solution. I hope for your nice comments. I am grateful to you. Greetings, have a nice night ❤️🌛✨.
Creating things with love 🌷❤️
