T-shirt dress do it yourself

Many girls love exclusive outfits, but if you order them from clothing designers you cannot afford, then you can show your imagination and sew an attractive and original dress from old T-shirts. Special skills are not needed, but only the desire and a few old products.

The main material for creating a dress is a T-shirt. It is better to give preference to cotton. Do not forget that worn things can not be altered.

A great solution would be a new T-shirt, but which simply did not fit you in size, since most of the master classes tell how to create a beautiful dress in size from a big T-shirt.

Buttons, rhinestones, ribbons or thermal decals can be purchased as decorations. If you can draw, then you can draw the original pattern, print, or just use a stencil.

Required tools:

• Sewing machine. Although there are master classes in which you can create a dress from a T-shirt without using sewing.
• Scissors for cutting or regular scissors with a long blade.
• Needles and thread.
• Pins.
• Decorative items for decoration, if necessary.

In just a few minutes you can create an amazing little dress from a big T-shirt. At hand should be a T-shirt, two sizes larger than yours, a centimeter for measuring your forms, scissors and a sewing machine.

The manufacturing process will include several steps:

• It should measure the circumference of the hips. The resulting figure should be divided into two.
• Now you can go to work with a t-shirt. It should be folded in half, measure half of the hips circumference from the center and, given this size, draw a thin contour of the future dress. But do not forget to leave another two centimeters along the contour for seams and allowances.
• Next, the shirt must be cut into separate parts. Cut off the sleeves, the upper part with the neck. They are no longer needed. The remaining material should be cut into two parts - the upper thin strip and the lower wide part.
• We sew thin strips on the sides so that a short top appears. The lower part is also sewn on the sides with the help of a zigzag seam. The result is a skirt.
• It remains to sew between the top and the bottom, and the beautiful dress of the fitted cut is ready!

To create a summer dress you can use not only your old T-shirts. It is very simple and easy to create an attractive model from a men's T-shirt:

• Typically, these models are quite wide, so first you need to reduce the width of the sleeves. You should measure your parameters of the sleeve, mark them on the fabric and cut off the excess.
• The edges must be carefully wiped so that when you wrap the fabric is not dissolved. The sides on the future dress can be stitched on a typewriter, applying a seam overlock.
• Then you should sew the sleeves on the drawn contours.
• T-shirt must be turned inside out. On the waist line should sew gum, initially measuring its waist size. Rubber can be replaced with a strap or wide belt.

A luxurious dress for the hot season can be made from an ordinary T-shirt and a small piece of fabric. The manufacturing process does not take much time, and does not require to be a professional in this matter.

First you need to think about where the junction of T-shirts and fabrics will be. You can create it on the waist line, hips or under the breast. The best options are the last two. The junction at the waist is suitable only for slender beauties with a thin waist.

The process of sewing dresses from t-shirts and fabrics includes the following steps:

• Need to take a square fabric. In the center you should cut a circle, the radius of which should correspond to the circumference of your hips. To get an even circle, the fabric must be folded in half.
• Technology action is very similar to the one used in school when making snowflakes out of paper. In the corner that is the middle, you should draw a semicircular line. It will be equal to a quarter of your thigh size. Next, carefully cut out.
• You need to sew the fabric down to the bottom of the shirt if you want to create a connecting seam at the hip level. If you want the seam to be under the breast, then you should shorten the T-shirt, and then sew the fabric.
• All seams of fabric should be treated with overlock.
• If you want to create an elegant version, then you can twist the corners of the fabric a little, as a result, the bottom of the dress will have the shape of a "sun" or "half sun".

You can create an attractive dress from a T-shirt and skirt. This outfit will suit girls with curvaceous, because it will not be too short.

The manufacturing process includes the following steps:

• T-shirt should be well smoothed. Transfer its dimensions (girth of the chest, waist and hips) onto it and cut off excess material along the contour. It is necessary to take into account that the shirt should be shortened about a little below the waistline. When the size of the upper part is ready, you can go to the bottom.
• You should take the skirt and carefully unpick the belt, since it will not be needed anymore. If it is left in place, an ugly fold will later be formed.
• The stitching of the skirt and the upper part of the T-shirt can be further covered using an ordinary belt or a thin strip of fabric. A new belt should not create a scar on the fabric.

Similarly, you can create a dress of two T-shirts. For a short T-shirt, you should sew a strip down from another T-shirt, but it should be the same color. The stitching line will be located under the breast. If you use a long model, then the products should be stitched along the line of the hips.

• Next you need to cut along the contour of the dress T-shirt. This should be done slowly, since two layers of fabric are cut at once. You should start with A-shaped, cut armholes. When cutting the top, do not forget that the future dress should have a collar.
• The result will be two identical pieces of fabric. Their edges need to be processed using a zigzag stitch, and then sew on a typewriter.
• From the remnants of a T-shirt you need to cut two pieces of a rectangular shape. They should be no more than 5 centimeters wide, and the length should be equal to the armhole for the future sleeve. These rectangles should be folded, ironed and carefully trim the armhole.
• From the edge of the dress to retreat just 5 millimeters. The fabric needs to be assembled and hide this seams, just as you did with the armhole for the sleeves.
