I read all about these pillowcase dresses and thought it sounded like such a fun project for me to try out on all my friends who have little girls. After searching around EVERYWHERE for cute pillowcases, I gave up and bought fabric samples from JoAnns. It turned out to be MUCH cheaper than buying pillowcases AND I could even mix and match to my heart's content :) I made 5 dresses in all, and got happier with each one I did. Here is Samantha debuting her dress:
And her little sis Meredith with hers:
And dresses for Reese and Grace, too!
JoAnns has these awesome little fabric pieces for $1.99. They measure 18"x24" and are pretty much perfect for these dresses.
I bought a whole bunch of them to make an ABC blanket-game for Grace and Jack:
I have the blanket/gameboard sewn. Now I just have to iron on all the fun letters and pictures.
Warmly,
Emily
