Have you seen these ribbony dishtowels at Dollar Tree? They really are as cute in person as they look in the picture. Reader Ash at Bandy Canyon made this adorable dress for her toddler out of just TWO dish towels! She doesn’t provide a pattern, but I have listed some tutorials below for you. [see Ash’s dress here]
- Sunny Day Dress and Top Tutorial at House on Hill Road
- The Pillowcase Dress from Red Instead would work well with dishtowels
- Use an old t-shirt or onesie along with the dishtowels to make a version of Disney’s Playdress at Ruffles and Stuff
Project Estimate:
- 2 dish towels, $2
- Sewing stuff, on hand
Total: $2
Other Resources:
- All kinds of inspiration clothes in this Girls’ Clothes Tutorial Round-Up at Sew, Mama, Sew! You can use the ribboned dishtowels for several of these great tutorials
- If you missed it before, here’s the 5-minute T-shirt Tunic – would work with one dishtowel
- This Bandanna Dress will also work for dishtowels

Thanks for the tutorial links! I’ve actually wanted a twirly skirt for myself for ages, but I’m really hard to fit (short and thinnish). I’m going to try this sometime!
