Take Charge Of Your Wardrobe!

This tutorial for a shirred pillowcase top may require a little more skill than previous tutorials I've posted, but you can't deny that it's perfect for summer: loose fitting, light weight, colorful. I really love that print.

Supplies:

• pillowcase (most pillowcases are approximately 20" wide and 28" long--measure yours before beginning your project)
• elastic sewing thread
• 42" of rickrack trim (optional)

Happy Memorial Day everyone! Please enjoy this tutorial for a feather and flower headband from Still Dottie. I'll be making one for sure, especially since I stepped on and subsequently broke my favorite flower head band last weekend. :(

Supplies:

• one thin headband
• one feather (found at most craft stores)
• pearls or small beads
• linen or other lightweight fabric
• needle
• thread
• glue (craft or bookbinding glue will work fine)

This is likely the coolest tutorial you will ever see. Rowena at Rostitchery wrote up a great tutorial for the Infinity Dress. The best part about it? It takes only one seam to put together! Okay, maybe that's not the best part. The best part about it? It's convertible and you can wear it about 28,746 different ways.

Finally, Rachelily made this post on Craftster showing her long, white version. Hamira poster her long red and blue versions on Craftster as well, right here. This dress would definitely be beautiful for prom, bridesmaid dresses, or even a wedding dress.

Supplies:

• stretchy fabric (jersey, polyester knit, etc) - the amount you need will depend on how long you want your dress to be
• thread
