Make Your Own Dress

One afternoon, A wanted to make a dress for C.  Her cynical mother told her it couldn’t be done.

“I don’t have a sewing machine, honey. Also, I don’t really know how to sew.”

But A would not be deterred.  With fierce determination, she launched herself into this latest project.  I joined in for the finishing touches, and I can now say that all you need to make a dress is:

1.  a scrap of Fabric (a big scarf will do)

2. Ribbons

3. Gorilla Tape

4. a Stapler

Voila!  One red satin spaghetti-strap party dress.  ”I can’t believe I made a dress!” A said, looking at the frock. Maybe next time, we’ll make a Mommy-sized one.
