fashion a la lulu

little L has quite enough outfits  ... but yet never enough :)

i saw an online tutorial for a t-shirt-dress and little L and I fell so much in love with it that we decided to try it.

we got a few fun looking t-shirts at our favorite thrift store and (here comes the hard part) cut them into pieces ... strips to be correct.


we sewed the pieces together, seems showing for a little ruffle effect and to hide the stitch-line.
we cut the new created fabric into shape and sewed it onto the top part of one of the shirts.
i should have used shirts in larger sizes, even a simple a-line didn't quite work ... it's more an "i" line :)
but ... my little L LOVES it and thats what matters.


et-voila 
fashion a la lulu

the i-line dress :)


i used a few extra stripes and sewed a patch-work-scarf/belt out of it.



it looks very cute ... but then anything on this little modeling-loving body looks cute!




she went to sleep in it and proclaimed "i want to wear it tomorrow and then the next morrow and the next morrow too"

thats what i call true heart and soul work success :)


~be well
