It's summer time! I'm so excited to go to the beach with my family but my kid's summer dress and suits are no longer fit as they grew so fast. This is the reason why I write articles about DIY or Do It Your self handicraft. I want to learn to do simple things because by doing this, I am practicing my motto in life which is "if others can, why can't I?" I think this should be everyone's motto because life is a continuous learning. In my previous article, I wrote about making your own swim suit out of remnants of cloth,and beacause it's summer again, I would like to share how did I make a kiddie summer wear for my 4 year old daughter.
Materials needed are:
- floral fabrics, square cut, L-20 inches,H-20 inches
- ribbons
- two sets of triangular cut for chest area
- two sets of cotton fabric, L-2 in,H-10 in
Procedure:
- Stitch the ribbon and then attach to the triangles which are already sewed.
- attach the cotton fabric at the bottom
- attach the floral fabric to the top of our summer dress
