Darcy's Dresses

1st dress I ever made!

I used these instructions:

Second dress with flower embellishment:

I used a child sized, old t-shirt for the first tier. I used a large women's t-shirt for the second tier and made a matching hat from one of the sleeves. I used an old pair of pants od Darcy's for the bottom tier. I used a small, closely spaced zig-zag stitch all around the bottom to give it a lettuce-leaf edge. 

I hemmed the first dress normally.

I the first dress each tier was about 1.3 x the previous. In the second one I used 1.5 x to get a fuller dress.
