Brown bag dress 2011-01-19 09:02

Brown bag dress… It doesn’t sound so glamorous as a description for a dress, but that’s actually the first thing that came to my mind when I finished it!

Very comfy, with pockets on both sides (of course! I love it like that!) and elastic threads that makes it a sexier brown bag dress. Definitely for a lounge type of week end, stuck on the sofa watching movies with a warm chocolate in the hand and big grandma socks on the feet…

You can even recycle a big old tee-shirt to achieve the same result: you just need to tear down the sleeves and sew an elastic thread right below the chest and one on the hips. If the fabric has enough stretch in it, you can even have the edges rolled over naturally! Which wasn’t the case for mine so I had to roll it and sew it manually… And that takes a lot of time!

And don’t forget, next time you make a warm chocolate, put a marshmallow inside so that it melts and gives this amazing taste… yummie!
