TEA TOWEL DRESSES

I’m always up for trying something new and different, and making clothes is no exception! To make things even more of an impossible challenge, not only did I have my daughter as my client to impress, but I also decided that the best fabric for the job would be tacky tourist tea towels because they’re always ‘oh so soft’!

I started by drafting a base pattern after wrapping her up in bits of paper, before carefully picking out the best sections from each tea towel, and then stitched it all together. The backs are denim upcycled from some old jeans I’d out-grown (literally).
