This outline of how to piece together a dress from dollies through crocheting over a cardboard dress form is a great refashioning clothing project. Dollies of many sizes, patterns and colors can be found for pennies on the dollar at yard sales, thrift stores and garage sales in almost any neighborhood.
Piece the dollies together and fill in the empty spaces with decorative crochet stitches with similar linen thread. You will have to wear a slip under this dress if you want to be modestly covered. This dress can also be used as a swimsuit cover up as well.
