Suntops and tennis dresses

From
Teenagers and Small Women

The fabric was purchased on sale for $5.00 a meter, the zip is recycled from one of my sister's old school uniforms and the buttons are from my Nana's button collection (of which I am the proud owner). I'll have to make the pattern smaller next time I make this one, as it's a bit on the roomy side.

New nighties - adapted from
Ten to Teens

Practice piece - the fabric had been in my stash for about twenty years. It was a tad narrow, so I added panels to the sides and made pleats to allow for extra room. The cotton lace was some of my Mum' s and is older than the fabric.

I liked it so much I made another one!
This one is made in light weight cotton, perfect for those hot summer nights we have here in Queensland.
Cheers Lisa
perfectly lovely!
ReplyDeleteI really like the nighties, they look lovely and cool.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dmarie :)
ReplyDeleteTracy, the nighties are soooo comfortable and super easy to make!
They look really great - not too old lady, but not too skimpy or itchy either. Love them.
