I bought a pair of king sized muslin pillowcases with a printed design on the open end... and managed... without a pattern... to tranform one of them into a pinafore!

The dress is actually made from a t-shirt we had that never got worn, and some fabric I had from a previous project that never got done... *sigh*... Oh... and obviously we're thinking outside the box... Alice had to be pink instead of blue...
It was fun! And somehow (I guess because I wasn't fighting with a pattern) I did both the dress and the pinafore in ONE DAY! That's my kind of sewing!
