DIY kids princess dress from old clothes:

It would definitely be beautiful if made into a child's skirt.

So began the transformation!

I didn’t take a picture of the whole dress. I didn’t want to post it at first so I didn’t take many pictures. This is cut from that dress to make the hem of the skirt. First cut the dress open from the two arms, and then pull the inner and outer layers together. As shown above!

I originally wanted to just find a vest or short-sleeved shirt and sew the hem of the skirt onto it. But I can't find the right one. I just happened to find this piece of cloth. The process of making the vest began again.

Fold the cloth again first. Put a vest on it and draw it on the cloth. (The ballpoint pen is hard to wash off, so I drew it with an eyebrow pencil.

) and then cut it out, leaving an extra centimeter on the edge because it needs to be sewn.

This is the vest I made for the first time. When I tried it on my baby, it turned out to be too small. This is because the clothes are cut directly according to the drawing, and will become smaller after sewing. Moreover, this piece of fabric has no elasticity and is difficult to put on the head. The cloth was remade and improved.

This time, one shoulder was not sewn together, but was designed with buttons so that it can be opened when worn, which makes it much easier to wear.

Use thread to close the hem of the skirt first. It’s not connected yet in the picture above, just to see if it looks good.

Step 3: Then use needle and thread to sew the two ends of the elastic band together firmly.

Step 4: Put the elastic band on something of suitable size to facilitate the following production

Step 5: Cut the beautiful yarn into strips of the same length and width. Pay attention to the length and width. Too much or too little will not look good.

Step 6: Fold the yarn in half and pass it inside the elastic band.

Step 7: Then pass the lower part through the upper loop

Step 8: Pull it down and it will be fixed

Step 9: Girls will also perform great in such beautiful princess dresses.
