The universal dress is versatile.
Fabric
The dress can be sewn together from old curtain fabric, old linen or fabric remnants, and if the fabric is large enough you can leave out the seam on the shoulder.
Sewing instructions
- Make the pattern from packing paper. The measurements should be adjusted accordingly for extreme sizes.
- Place the pattern on the fabric and mark the cutting line with fabric chalk. Add 2 cm everywhere for the seam.
- Cut out the pieces and baste them together with grommets, then sew them together with the sewing machine (always at a distance of 2 cm from the edge of the fabric).
- Make a hem at the bottom, on the sleeves and at the neckline. Fold the fabric inwards by 2 cm and secure with grommets, sewing at a distance of 1.5 cm from the edge of the fabric.
- Only put in 1 cm at the neckline.
Accessories for the dress
Headgear: Hat, cap, scarf, turban, wig, crown.
Staff, bag, scarf (diagonally across the shoulders/around the stomach), cord, belt, wide piece of fabric (in place of a belt).
