This is going to be a great project for those of you who have some experience sewing and making clothes and are ready to try something more involved than most of my previous tutorials!

MATERIALS NEEDED:

-At least 3 yards of a four way stretch knit fabric (if you want a longer length skirt or larger size I’d suggest getting extra to be on the safe side). I used ITY knit fabric which came from LA Finch Fabrics.

-A fitted spaghetti strap tank top for a template

-A sewing machine. I used the Singer Talent 3321 in this video: https://amzn.to/3794XNx *

-Ball point needles. These are my favorites: https://amzn.to/2GTcuqg *

-Scissors. These are an affordable set I’ve used for years: https://amzn.to/2NMnZBl *

-Tape Measure

-Pins

-Thread. This is my favorite brand: https://amzn.to/38cAxvh *

-Walking foot (optional): you only need one if you prefer sewing knits with one… this is the one I have for my Singer machines: https://amzn.to/2NkhoxP *

Thank you so much for watching this tutorial! I’ve been so inspired by all the flowy wrap dresses I’ve been seeing lately and I’m really happy with the way the dress turned out. It was fun doing something a little more involved and time consuming than many of my other tutorials, so I think this will be a good tutorial for people who have had some experience sewing stretch knit fabric and have an understanding of clothing construction. This dress would be perfect for summer adventures, date nights, or even a great wedding guest dress, and I always think the wrap dress silhouette works great on all shapes, from petite to plus size. If you're looking for more easy sewing tutorials, I have loads of beginner sewing projects planned!

Happy sewing!!!

XO,
Monika
