# 4 - DIY dress ♥

For full view click on the pictures!
To help I have sometimes with a piece of paper "imitated"




What: convertible dress
How hard?? easy - medium
What you need: Fabric 100cm * 115cm (my recommendation? Fits dress size 36/38), rubber band and / or normal band






The 100 * 115 cm wide fabric rectangle of width to fold (it results in a 100 cm * 57.5 cm wide double layered rectangle). The open 100cm long side stuck so that both layers are a good team.










The side with zigzag stitch sew down, serving as Serging seams so that the substance can no longer fringe.


The "tube" is now such that the inside is outside. So the outside to the outside and the inside with the seams inside.


the fabric insert again properly as a rectangle, so that the seam is a site (as at the beginning).













The opposite Page (from the seam of view) is later, the center of the front of the dress (logical, since the seam is of course to the rear). The center of the front Maki. lie


fabric so that you can point at makiert 5 cm cut down and each 1 cm to each side.












Get out: First fold the two 1cm long pieces, then the upper edge of the cloth.
IMPORTANT: This is all visible on the front page later!











Now one needs to have the (rubber) band, which can be laced up later. Man sews
namely the "tunnel" by the band is already inside, because it could no longer thread later without which there would be a huge job. The tape is thus already laid on the fabric and folded the top edge of the fabric. It should be noted that as much space between the band and the lower edge of the tunnel is (so the tunnel can vary a bit generous).
IMPORTANT: The tunnel is sewn on the front page will remain visible.











is simply stitched with herself once again until you arrive at the beginning.
already has one completed the top piece! (Maybe time for a first try;))


Then it's time for the waist elastic band! Ca. 22cm below the top edge of the cloth (depends on dress size! Best everyone measures themselves on the first fitting is seated as many inches below the top of the waist!) Is an elastic band sewn.
while stitching the rubber band to keep very tight so that the fabric into folds later content.


There is actually nurnoch the hem, so the lower edge of the cloth. To neaten it, simply fold down the fabric 2x and sew over it. How many cm you had used all depends on the desired length of the dress!


Even the dress is finished!


course you can do anything more with how you look at the first photo.
I have taken for a piece of fabric that was as long and wide to perfectly fit from the waist down to the edge and into the space of the tunnel. Then I sewed another 4 gold buttons and voila, it was much nicer than the "basic dress":) let


Simply the imagination!
