How To Make An Upcycled Boho Dress From a Nightgown , Sheet and Lace
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- Boy, this upcycling video was a labor of love and a great example of pure determination. In this tutorial, we create a gorgeous boho/prairie maxi dress from a thrifted nightgown, sheet and lace, then dye it with Rit Dyemore. I explain the process every step of the way, striving to be as clear and detailed as possible. With that being said, you get to see behind the scenes and watch an upcycling sewist sweat! Everything didn't go as planned, but I carried on and hopefully set a good example of how to recover from mishaps that are sure to happen now and then.
Enjoy!

Dear Tracy: You are a true source of inspiration. Thanks to your tutorials and your clear explanations I have been able, for the first time, to make my own clothes and my own accessories such as scarves and purses in that cute style that results from upcycling. I am not exaggerating if I tell you that you have made me very happy since following your instructions and sewing my own clothes I spend some of the most fun moments of my life. Thank you once again for sharing your videos so generously.
Omgosh that is such a wonderful thing to hear, thank you so much 🤗💕💕💕💕

I am so glad you didn’t throw it away, the dress turned out awesome.I love the colour,wasn’t sure when you said it will make you look pale but you looked lovely in the video,in the outdoor lighting.Again a masterpiece out of bits and bobs ,you are so talented,thanks for sharing.
Awww you are so sweet, thank you 🤗❤❤❤❤
The dress looks beautiful on you.
Thank you so so much 🤗💕💕💕💕💕
I follow your videos, never commented but your an extremely talented person that can make a simple blouse to make a Boho dress which l have always loved even ln my 70's. I love the 70's era. Love your talent
Awww thank you so so much 😍💕💕💕💕
Hello, I have so very much fun watching you be brave, and sewing in front of us...thank you.
Just want to say, making this particular lovely dress , has been a mission to be had....can you image attempting to make this all by hand....yikes.....i have never had soooo many ruffles in my whole life, and how fun is this!!!!!
Thank you so much 🤗❤❤❤❤💕💗
A renaissance queen! Beautiful as always. Sometimes I think,”I don’t know Tracy…” and I am always wrong! Hahaha! You know exactly what you are doing!!
🤗💖💖💖
Tracey you’re such a great teacher of so many different cute ideas !!!!
Thank you so much!🤗💞💞💞💞
Sometimes you just have to set creative projects aside and come back to them - right? The fuller sleeves are beautiful and adding the extra lace and crochet pieces took this dress to the next level! I loved learned more sewing tricks with the use of the sheets, nightgown, buying lace lots from eBay, dyeing the slip as a liner and using Rit More Dye! By the way, you look lovely in the dress, not washed out at all! 🥰🤪
Awww thank u so so much!!!🤗💞💞💞💞
Traci you are truly a princess and make the rest of us feel the same way ❤
Awww thank you so much 🤗❤❤❤❤
I find when I get to the point where my project stops being fun giving it a "time out" works wonders.
Sometimes, it's just a short time, but I've waited 6 months or more. When I have fresh eyes and energy I usually can rescue the project. Some are doomed but that's not the norm. I love the dress.
I totally agree!!!!🤗💞💞💞💞
LOVE this. I would love to see things like this with handkerchief hems and lots of colors.
You're so relaxed in making your clothes! Love it.
Thank you so much 🤗😘❤❤❤❤
Another beautiful and unique creation. Super feminine.
Thank you so much 🤗💕💕💕💕

Those sleeves it’s a wooow..the color …all,those laces jus amazing 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎👌👌👌👌✨👌👌✨
🤗❤❤❤❤
Love the way the dress came out. You look so cute in the dress. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ the purse.
Thank you so much!🤗💖💖💖💖
So glad you kept working on it.
An easy "gathering" hack is to do a large zigzag stitch over fishing line that has a weight (or giant washer) on the end. You can pull the line and it gathers the fabric.
Genius!🤗❤❤❤
That is HEAVENLY!
Thank you so much 🤗💖💖💖💖
It's gorgeous! I'm thrilled you didn't give up!! I adore all you do! I must admit I envy your talents!! TFS! Namesta🐞🐞🐞
Awww thank u so so much 🤗❤❤❤❤
It's such a whimsical romantic dress! I love it and it looks so pretty on you!
Aww thank you so much 🤗💞💞💞💞
I’ve found another of my tribe.
I’ve watched so many of your videos, your creative process is a joy to watch. Sometimes projects just need to marinate. Overnight , a week, a month… you can’t rush this. I find that mono coloured projects often trip me up. How could you doubt your beautiful brain? It’s not put a step wrong creatively so far. I suppose it’s like writers block… I’m still in awe at how you just mark with chalk and chop. 😮love your videos. Love them. Thank you for all the hard work you put in making them.
Yes, I definitely get a "writer's block" situation going on sometimes, but then it passes and I'm flooded with ideas, again. Thank you so much for watching and being here with me!🤗💕💕💕💕💕
Such a romantic look. I appreciate the added lace 'danglies' ... Now it's a true Tracy piece. 💜
Thank you so much 🤗💞💞💞💞💞
Yay another Tracy video
🤗💕💕💕💕💕💕
Your boho dress is so beautiful and feminine! You look lovely. I'm inspired, and will also feel braver about dying things. Love it!
Aww I'm so glad!🤗❤❤❤
Traci, the end result was so worth it! I love it with the boots, and think the color look great on you!
Thank you so so much!!🤗❤❤❤❤
Hi! I love how you turned a plane night gown in to a beautiful, and dainty dress. I think up cycling things is a great to express yourself.
I agree, it's such an artistic outlet for me.🤗💞💞💞💞💞
Oh my gosh I love this dress this is on my makes list. It turned out so beautifully, I love it. Awesome work!!!
Thank you so so much!🤗💞💞💞💞💞
I think you just demonstrated how to make a thrifty wedding dress. Glad you kept going.
🤗💞💞💞💞💞
I really love your style and videos! That being said, I've been a sewist for 50 years. So may I give you a little tip?It's rolling up because you need to gather a flat trim just slightly to ease it around a curved area. Try That next time. I think you will be very happy with the result.
I will do that next time. Maybe a basting stitch with a subtle gathering? Love the advice, thank you. 🤗❤❤❤❤

Glad you finished! Looks darling on you
Thank you so much 🤗💖💗💓💞💕
Thank you so much Tracy, I really really enjoyed watching you transform this night dress into that gorgeous and beautiful maxi dress. What a difference it made too. No one would believe it unless they’d watched this video. Great idea too. Also a good idea to sew in the slip to the dress, so you don’t have to hunt for it. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so so much!!!🤗💞💞💞💞
Such a pretty shabby chic dress
Thank you so much 🤗❤❤❤❤❤
Tracy, your dye jobs always comes out great!!! I like your sleeves. Working on my coat dress upcycle. I turned reg button sleeves into the full sleeves. I slit them at the bottom and inserted a mesh material with embroidered florals and then added a super wide semi rouched lace trim around entire cuff.....work in progress....
Sounds beautiful!!!!🤗❤❤❤❤❤
Just my personal style preference--- I liked the "balloon" (gigot style) sleeve! But the bell sleeves gave it that 70's feel which is also one of my favorites! Nice job!!!!
🤗💞💞💞💞💞
Romantic, whimsical, magical. Love it! ❤
Thank you so so much!🤗💞💞💞💞💞
Tracy, most of the things you make, I figure I've got a good idea of the outcome, but your creative mind at work continually surpasses my expectations. Thank you for sharing and inspiring.
Awww so sweet, thank you 🤗💞💞💞💞
Your dress is so pretty. Very special.
Thank you so much 🤗❤❤❤❤
A lot of hard work there but definitely worth the time and the effort. It is beautiful. Well done 😊

Thank you!🤗❤❤❤
Genius ! and oooohhh soooo lovely on you!
