I had originally bought this  fabric to make a long maxi dress, but while cleaning up a few things I laid it on my dress form to get it out of the way and realized that it drapes amazingly and decided to make a caftan-style short dress out of it instead! I’ve been scouring the internet lately looking for great summer dresses that are DIY and don’t require a pattern and I have come up with a whole lot of nothing! So this is my new goal for the spring/summer… come up with really beautiful dresses that do not require you to go out and buy a pattern, that are really simple to make and then post them here with easy to follow tutorials!
