I got a little high-horsey when it came to my pretty little dish towel last week that I thought I'd try my hand at a pillowcase dress for Wavey...without a pattern. "How hard could it be?" I asked myself. Oh, I was so mistaken to think I could whip it up AND have it look good.
It's whipped up alright. But I'd say, it's now more of an "I don't care if this gets paint on it because it's sewn so poorly" art smock than "let's show our friends" kind of pillowcase dress.
Besides, Wavey later said, "I don't like yellow." I don't like yellow anymore either.

Better than I could do for certain. At least it's a cute top and really, with that smile...who is looking at the dress?
Hey I think for the FIRST time you did pretty good! You have to start somewhere and eventually will get better over time- right?
You did great! I would never brave something without a pattern because I am such a rule follower too.
Thanks for your nice words, all, but let's just say the dress is a 15-feet job...as in, it only looks good if you're standing 15 feet away!
Into Ablivia- you have no idea how many times I thought of picking up the phone to say, "Give me your mom's phone number. Pronto."
it looks super cute to me...
