Frock from an old shirt

After a few months break, I am back to sewing! The first half of the year was very eventful for our family but now things have started to settle down and we are back to our routines!

Since summer has officially begun in this part of the country, my husband and I got to cleaning our wardrobe last weekend. There were so many clothes he wanted to get rid off/donate. And off the lot, there was this shirt (10 years old that I gifted him for our engagement) and I thought to try and convert it into a frock for my little one. And as usual, I found some great tutorials on pinterest and youtube..

This is what I had:


I traced one of my daughter's old frocks; the picture above shows it vaguely. While cutting it, you want to fold the shirt into half and then cut on one side, this makes both sides even.


I hemmed the bottom, hands and neck. Maybe I should have added a pocket or two but oh well! I might just applique a picture onto it sometime later :)
