I seem to be full of tutes lately! :) Hope you all enjoy this one as well.
As you know, I'm making a lot of clothes for the kids. This is a shirt I made for Abbi for summertime wear, but it could easily be adapted for school wear by putting a cute coordinating tee shirt under it.
(note the use of fabrics from the fat quarter challenge!)
There is also a skirt that I made using this same process, but with wider strips. You may recognize the fabric from another outfit I made a couple of weeks ago. This will be added to the school clothes stash.
On to the tutorial! (click for full size to read easier!)
Have fun and let me know if you give this fun and easy tute a try! :)
I love that shirt. The pattern is so cute and the fabric is awesome. I really wish that I could sew.

So cute! Found it via Flickr in some crafty pool I was browsing through - do you have any ideas as to how to modify it for Fall / Winter?? I'm a little new at apparel sewing!
