Today’s post is all about unexpected confessions:
- I never buy fabric from Walmart – this time I did
- I am not keen on THAT kind of printed fabric and I never buy it – this time I did;
As a result of these things from my “don’t do list” I have this gorgeous and… silly grey dog printed T-shirt dress with raglan sleeves.
I honestly do not know what happened to me, we were walking through Walmart, buying some laundry soap and etc., and I just saw this fabric and felt completely charmed by it. I could not leave without buying a yard, so after 35 minutes of waiting for the person in the fabric section to cut and label the fabric I left happy with a T-shirt dress idea in mind. Same evening, 6 hours later I created this dress. It is fully lined, sleeves are made out of grey/silver crepe, bottom hem is hand stitched. I got one yard and still had a pretty good amount left over, would be enough for some detailing or little purse.
Pattern wise I used New Look’s pattern of raglan sleeve blouse and extended it in length. Added a belt and here we go!

Thank you! It is a cute print, but the reason I avoid that kind of prints is because they remind of pajamas…. 😀
