Shirt To Dress

I went shopping at one of my favs not too long ago and was fishing through the clearance rack. I found a plus size shirt that had smocking at the bottom and when I turned it upside down, I thought it would make a really cute dress. And for less than $5 why not give it a try?

Like Miss Drama here?? LOL!

I even added a ruffle at the bottom to make it even more girly! I liked it so much I went back and bought the same shirt in blue to make another one!

Play Shirt

My new favorite fabric purchase is the remnant. These are smaller (1 yard or less) cuts of fabric that are usually cheap (cheap!!!) and cheap is good lately. Being on a severe budget, I need a savvy way to continue my need to create without breaking the bank and remnants are my way to go! I found this great lavender colored fabric with flowers embroidered on it. It wasn't in my stash for long when a project came along that I knew this was perfect for.

So I got this book for Christmas this year that I am loving! It is my new favorite book. I want to make everything in it! It's called One Yard Wonders. I couldn't wait to start one of the projects in this book! It had to be this little play shirt.

It's a tad too big for my little one but it will be prefect once the snow melts and the weather gets warm. I can't wait to see her running around in this cute little shirt!
