My friend gave me some clothes for a yard sale and in the bunch of stuff was this sweater. I thought the flower appliques were so cute (especially on the pockets!) and I got the idea to make it into a sweater dress for Mallary. When I first started my business years ago, I actually started with sweater dresses. I made girls sweater dresses out of adult sweaters. They were cute, I actually have two left still unsold...
It was a quick project. My Grandma watched as I made it and said that is the fastest dress ever made! As I told my sister, it's not something I probably would have bought had I found it in a store, but it was free! I think it turned out pretty good!
Method:
I cut off the sleeves, shortened them, thinned them.
I sewed up the sides - a lot.
I reattached sleeves!
That's it!!
Bonus? It will fit her next year too!
