Ready for the 4th
By Moriah on June 30th, 2009
I’ve been going back and forth about buying my girls cute 4th-of-July shirts or making them some sort of fun patriotic dresses. And then in a lightbulb moment, I remembered about this idea and knew it would be perfect. (Hat tip to Mer.)
Last night I finished Adelaide’s, The Bandanna Dress, 4th of July Version:

As promised by the tutorial, this was SO EASY. It took hardly any time at all, way less than an hour. And bandannas (which come in a bunch of different colors, by the way) are only $0.94 at Walmart.
(In case you’re wondering, I AM going to make Madeline’s as a shirt.)

Oh my! I could do that! And I think I will! Thanks so much. :D
I think I’m going to do this again…red and blue just like yours!
So Cute!
Cute!
I love it! Don’t think Kman would be up for it though!
i did something similar because i wanted 4th of july cuteness too.
Adorableness :) And I was JUST going to say the Walmart bandanas are super duper inexpensive…but you already knew that you wallyworld guru!
Looks like we are both being bitten by those pesky crafty/sewing bugs :)
I’m glad to know that someone else thinks about Fourth of July clothing. :) We don’t even have set plans yet, but I still like to have something???
I only wish I had a girl…hopefully one day…and when that day comes, I will be making one of these! SO CUTE!
How cute! The bandanna dresses and shirts are adorable on your beautiful girls. So glad the tutorial was helpful!
Have you tried pillowcase dresses yet? They can be made with cute pillowcases or from fabric. Just as cute and almost just as easy…I made my daughter one for her 4th of July dress.

These are so cute! I remember there was a woman on Etsy that I went CRAZY over and bought like 10 of these from last year. I wish I could make it. Sewing isn’t my thing. Those are the cutest outfits ever. You go Mama!
