Pillowcase Dresses

I ran across these cute Pillowcase Dresses online. I had to find out how to make this cute dress. To my surprise they are so easy to make and can be done/ made in less then a hour. They are called pillowcase dresses because the idea is to use a old pillowcase to make. I think of it like the poor girl's dress but their so darn cute. I'm sure at one time Mom's would take old pillowcases and turn them into clothes for their daughters. It would be cheap and cost affective and the dresses are light and cool for summer. Their was a time in life where everything was recycled in some way to save on money. I did search to see how of course these dresses came about with little results. Any way I just bought my material then using my pillowcase from the bed. How ever I did see some cute dresses made out of old lace pillow cases and I love the vintage look. So I wiped up this princess one and  I made Kaitlyn a patriotic one as well. Which I love because I like to dress Kaitlyn for the occasion or Holiday to show spirit and now that she is getting older it is hard to find clothes related to the holidays. Kaitlyn looked so cute on the 4th in her dress.

These are so easy to make and Kaitlyn loves her dress.
