3 years late but this is the best hack to real pattern fit! im 66 and too tired to do all that blocking etc I learned. Never did full fasionschool but small series offered at adult ed. Ive made plenty of circle skirts, attachd my old skirts to tshirts but this gives me a way to do a great basic bodice to add material too. The town we retired to has cleaned out their grandmas sewing stash and given to me! Im assume that fold at underarm still gives the bust fit with elastic in a magic way. I can see also trying different lengths on bodice for diffgernet looks. At waist etc. this could have a retangle faux sleeve added too. Or little bolero made from a tshirt. im checking out your other videos!
OMG!!! You make this look so easy. You are so talented. Thank you for always sharing, stay blessed. Oh I made the tee shirt dress and it was so easy after watching your tutorials, turned out so cute! Thanks again 😊
The paper tip is one of the best ever sewing tips. I purchased a new sewing machine about 2 years ago and thought it was defective because my fabric would get caught. Then I happened to be watching one of your older sew-alongs when you mentioned it. I was so relieved.
Thanks!!!
I am just seeing this! 😱 YOU MADE ME FEEL LIKE I WAS UP CLOSE IN A CLASSROOM! Your tutorial was soooo clear and understanding!!!!! And the dress is absolutely AMAZING!!! Thank you
This is so cute and so easy to do, thanks so much for all the freebie tutorials you bless us with, have a wonderful weekend!!!

Thanks for the idea of using paper in the beginning... i tear up so much fabric from it getting caught.. beautiful easy dress
I LOVE your vlog tutorials everything. I would love to see the finished product one more time at the end of your tutorials-cuz I get so involved sewing and following along to see the item again wb terrific... thank you for all
I love this dress! I will be following the instructions to make one for myself, thanks for sharing.
Loved this Mimi thank you. I made it today and your instructions were nice and easy. I just made the square bigger as I wanted it slightly longer and it worked a treat. Will be making another as I love the simplicity of the dress. You are such a good teacher x
This is awesome! I am a beginner at sewing, but this project looks like a challenge I am definitely going to try. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for your tutorial it's so easy to follow I love this dress it would be a perfect summer wedding dress for me x
You make sewing look so simple . Love your teaching style !
Simply stunning! Unless I have missed a video on any 'white me-makes' perhaps this could be the next color wardrobe to share with us. I adore making white garments. Something simple like this can get me out of a bind when it comes to dressing for a summer wedding or other gala. Thanks!
Very simple, clear instructions. I sew, so it wasn't hard for me to understand. I think I will try this. I have always been a fan of uneven hemlines.
Thanks for sharing ! Love the dress and love your earrings.
Beautiful dress! I love the handkerchief hem.. Thanks so much for this tutorial Mimi G!!! I'm making this tomorrow....lol.
I love these easy 1 hour dresses, thank you mimi😁
Good pattern! Thank you. You’ll be having lots of new sewists enjoying making this beautiful dress.
I would have liked to see you stitch the hem and then hold up the dress for a better look. The end of the tutorial came across as abrupt! Apart from that, you clearly gave precise instructions and the dress was very nicely sewn!
Have had a number of skirts and pants with elastic in them like this and the elastic always twists in the wash. On most of those, I undo the waist seam and then stitch down one side of the elastic to the inside of the skirt or pants waistband then resew the seam I took out. To do that on this dress you would go ahead and iron as instructed, then open the fold and pin the elastic in place (please note that the elastic should be joined end to end FIRST), then stitch along the bottom edge of the elastic through the fabric that will be on the INSIDE of the dress when finished. Then fold and sew that seam to enclose the elastic. Do NOT stitch both sides of the elastic down as it will pucker oddly. Doing this secures the elastic better and prevents rolling for a much more professional look. Good tutorial and nice pattern though I can't do strapless. Using the entire tee for a pattern and then adding lace sleeves would make for an awesome evening dress for those of us who are larger or simply uncomfortable strapless. Of course you would eliminate the elastic if doing this. You should use a sleeved tee for your pattern and stretch lace for the sleeves as fabric for pattern and the dress are stretch knit. Necklines are fun to play with here too. I would go for a flattering scoop neck coming straight down from sides of your neck. I just need to go get some stretch lace!
I love this dress. Going to try make this one for sure.
Thank you, this was very helpful. Especially the tip about using paper to start. I thought I was doing something wrong!
Hella cute 🥰 I’ve been practicing sewing the last 2 months. I’m definitely going to challenge myself with this one 🧵
Omg! You are so adorable and talented!! Thanks for sharing!
I love how you do your tutorials you make every thing plain and easy thank you so much I subscribed to you so time ago but this is the first time I've seen you do one in quite some time
Love this piece! Thanks MimiG
Beautiful dress. Excellent instruction. Very easy to follow for this beginner. I agree with another comment that the end was a bit abrupt. I too would have liked to see the hem finished.
Thanks Mimi for this tutorial. I'm a beginner and I've watched all your videos. You've given me so much confidence because you make it look so easy. Can't wait to make this.
Me to, being 4yrs later after your comment 😜… your not so much of a beginner I bet. I’ve only been sewing almost 2yrs. So I’m still learning. This however makes me want to make this. I have been wanting to make a halter dress and all other tutorials make it seem hard. This one omg so excited to try!

Mimi G Style welcome 😊 have you ever did a video on how to do the drawstring strap to a two piece swimsuit?

Love this dress. Do you have any advice for making it an asymmetrical handkerchief hem? Or making the handkerchief hem more dramatic?

Thanks for your awesome sewing lesson. On the square the 22" square is that for a size small, medium, lg, and extra leg? Or do you make the sq smaller for a smaller size? You are super awesome. Thanks!
You are a great teacher.
Beautiful Thank you Going to try this. What kind a fabric did you use?😊

Tracey Lafontaine
Gorgeous dress!
Love this idea 😍😍😍
thanks love the tutorial
beautiful!!! Thank you!
Love it
Love it, Thank you very much!
Hey can you do a video on how to sew a waterfall jacket, that is the jacket where the hemline is exactly like your dress thank you.
Fantastic idea Mimi thank you
Great tutorial! Can I omit the top and just make a skirt?
Love it! You are so talented. Thank you for always sharing. 😍
Thank you for the paper tip!
Thanks so much 4 this video, such easy & understandable directions, the best i have seen im going 2 try this N a few days, I just Love it!!!❤
Thanks for the tutorial! Quick tip for clarification though: saying “divide by half” mathematically means divide by 0.5 which will actually double the number making 15/0.5=30. Just wanted to point that out in case it messes some people up! Thanks again for your videos
Couldnt thos also be made with a twist top whole dress, and straps tie aroumd neck?
The white dress is very cute but I clicked to see your haircut tbh. Lol. It’s super cute! I love pixie cuts and this really suits your face shape so well. You go sis🥰
oh, sorry where are your videos for the fall collection(patterns)? thanks
Love it 😍 Tfs
Can this beautiful dress be made with a knit fabric.
Very cute!
Love Love Love
Thank you - very easy to follow you.
Mimi love your video! Where did you get those shoes?
Super cute! Question: why not fold the fabric and do half the tank so both sides would be exact?
Thank you
How do you get measurments for square
Can I use denim fabric to make this shirt?
Gaaah I really wish we had a decent fabric shop in my town!!! It's almost impossible to get anything that isn't upholstery or poly/cotton.
Would you suggest any other fabrics? I can sort-of fudge a bodice from linen or cotton...
Simple and cute.. Tq for syear it's..
Awesome 😊
What kind of paper is that and where did you get it.
She makes this look super easy. I am going to try it nevertheless
Lovely
Do you have any videos on how to make sure the elastic doesn't move or twist?
Can a Jersey knit be used for this pattern?
Mimi, im almost 6' tall, will the 20 in square b long enough for me.
Cute 🥰!!
Are you using washers as fabric weights?
very nice!
Will this work with a stretchy crepe? (at least I think it's crepe lol it's very drapey and thin, but does have a bit of stretch to it too...)
Is that 1/4" little slice at the fold work as an opening for the skirt? What would I measure for my size, for the skirt? My waist size is 44...thanks
That measurement matched up to the bottom of the pattern piece made from the tank top.
