MemberDoes anyone have a pattern for the Infinity/Convertible dress? I found the tuturial at rowena.typepad.com/rostitchery/infinity-dress.html, but I need something with more (exact) details and measurements. I’m not a super skilled seamstress.
MemberI have this bookmarked at home. If no one else gives you anything, PM me and I’ll send it to you later. I had the exact problem and I made one. The best advice I can give: get the right material. I made 2 from the wrong material and they never looked right.
Member@TheFutureMcBride: What type of material worked best for you? And what didn’t?
MemberIf you find the photobucket group for the dress someone has good directions on there!
MemberMatte jersey is what the bought in stores convertible dresses are made of. I had a hard time finding it, but also never asked. I tried a non-stretchy fabric and one that was stretchy, but see through, so I doubled the straps which made me look pouchy when I wrapped myself in it.
Here’s my tips:
Good luck and send me a pm to remind me for the website if you want it.
MemberWe’re converting a Vintage Vogue pattern into an infinity dress. It’s this one:
We’re basically making the dres as-is and making a fully boned waistline to help out my two girls, who are both on the curvy side, and just adding the long straps to it. We’re using a thin, stretch satin.
Just make sure the fabric has a 2-ways stretch, not a 4-way stretch.
