Brown Sack Dress
Today at the St. Dominic fair I saw a little girl wearing what looked like a dress made of two bandanas. The armholes were cut at an angle and a ribbon gathered the top to make little spaghetti straps. Tonight I spent some time trying to recreate a similar pattern--an easy sundress that uses minimal cuts, two identical pieces, and simple stitches. I used a piece of scrap for the top ribbon--I like the frilly, unfinished edges--but I splurged on the vertical stripe. What little girl shouldn't wear vintage silk from 1930's Paris at $26 per yard??
