Addy's Dress

My friend Krystl let me go through her Goodwill pile before getting rid of her stuff, and I found a few items that are perfect to upcycle! For instance, this was once a super soft small t-shirt. I cut it up, sewed up the sides, followed this tutorial to make the braided collar, and then I tried my hand at a little embroidery, and voila! Now it's a summery play dress for her little girl Addy.

Theoretically, this should have been an easy peasy project. But let's just say that my my machine revolted against the jersey knit and gave me trouble for a few days. But the pay off for hard work is great, and I hope Addy wears it out!
