Sewing Pattern Tutorial: Knit dress from a 3-pack of men’s t-shirts

Kim from Cotton Creek Sewing shows how she made this knit dress out of a 3-pack of men’s t-shirts. This project is actually a remake of the first dress she ever made – way back in 1982, when she saw the idea in a magazine. It’s a quick and easy project, requiring just a few of seams. The gathered skirt is made from the bottoms of 2 t-shirts so there’s no hemming. Go to Cotton Creek Sewing for a tute showing how you can make one.
