How to Make a Dress From Your Stateroom Curtains
- 1). Take down the curtains and remove any hardware.
- 2). Fold each curtain in half by bringing the top edge down to the bottom edge.
- 3). Lay the curtains side by side on the bed with the fold at the top and the edges in the middle touching.
- 4). Pull the left edge of the top layer of the curtain on the right over the curtain on the left and sew the curtains together where they overlap. Sew from the bottom edge to 8 inches from the fold. Sew through only the top two layers of curtains.
- 5). Turn the folded curtains over and sew the back side in the same way. The opening at the top will be the "V" neck on the dress.
- 6). Sew the curtains together at the sides, from the bottom to a point 6 inches from the fold. The openings will be the armholes on this caftan-style dress.
- 7). Pull the dress over your head and stick your arms through the armholes.
