Making a dress for a little girl from a men’s shirt Tools Men’s shirt. scissors. Meters measure. A large piece of paper to draw the pattern. Colored threads. lead pencil. sewing machine. Various accessories. How we work: We take the girl’s measurements using a measuring meter and record them on a side sheet of paper.

We measure a distance of two centimeters from the right sleeve and cut it straight down to reach the left sleeve. We pin the shirt after removing the upper part of it to the paper using pins, and mark the desired model on it with colored soap. We cut out the required model, then remove the paper from the fabric, and begin sewing the bottom of the shirt to serve as a small rose for the dress. We sew the upper end by hand with a wide saddle, and after completing the saddle, we tighten the remaining thread to bind the fabric to the required size and give it an aesthetic shape. We sew the bra with the machine, then sew the edges of the dress according to size, with the possibility of making small pins at the waist. We take the sleeves that we cut previously, then fold them so that they become straight and long pieces, then sew them with a machine and attach them to the form of straps for the dress. We decorate the dress from the chest with a number of small roses, or any available accessories that are appropriate for the dress, and thus the dress is ready.

How to do it: Cut the sleeves and collar of the jacket and set the cut pieces aside. Trim the ends of the down jacket to give it a nice circular shape, so the bag does not have sharp corners. We sew the base of the bag and secure it well. We attach the piece of cardboard, after cutting it to the size of the base of the bag, using a silicone device at the bottom of the bag to give it a distinctive shape and a solid support for carrying the things inside it. We fold and sew the sleeves, then attach them as a bag holder. We use the rest of the scraps to make beautiful roses, attach them to the bag with silicone, and the bag is ready.
