Make a toddler dress from a t-shirt.

Step 5 Attatch the skirt.

Turn the skirt inside out. Turn the shirt right side out. Put the shirt inside the skirt, and line up the raw edges. (Right sides are facing each other.)

Now line up the dots you drew on the skirt with the seams sewn on the shirt.
Now line up the shirt with the gathered skirt, spreading the gathered skirt evenly, and pin in place.

Now sew the shirt to the skirt. Make sure you stay to the left of the gathered stitching so that it doesn't show. If your kids are rough to their clothes, sew around twice.

Turn it right side out and you're done.

 this really is the greatest.  i just bought a t-shirt at marshalls for $.50 and whipped this up in 20 minutes.  i could have gathered the skirt better, but the shirt was a small and fitted t-shirt and didn't know how much material i had for the skirt.  i barely know how to sew and this project was fun, fun, fun.  thank you so much.  can't wait to make more.
