DIY: Easy 4 Squares Nightgown - Video Tutorial
10:28 AM
With only 4 pieces of square fabric, you can make this cute and comfortable nightgown for your little girl. It's easy!
We want to thank Hobby Lobby for providing the beautiful spring fabric for this post! We have been wanting to create a video tutorial for our well loved 4 Square Nightgown for quite some time, and now with this lovely fabric we can really show it off in video form.
Watch the video below for instruction on how to make this beautiful nightgown / dress for your little girl! It might be so easy, your daughter could make it herself (if you trust her with a sewing machine...)!
*DETAILED Measurements for my 7 yr. old:
Fabric: 1.25 yards
1. Front and Back Pieces
Around widest area (hip/bum) = 24" + 2" = 26"
Desired length from collar bone down = 25" + 1" = 26"
So I need to cut 2 square pieces 26" wide x 26" long
2. Sleeves
Around widest part of arm = 7", Double that number = 14"
Desired length from base of neck down the arm (to the elbow) = 13" + 1" = 14"
I need to cut two squares 14" wide x 14" long
3. Elastic
I used .5" wide elastic. Measure loosely around the base of the neck and then add 1" for seam allowance. For my 3 yr. old and 7 yr. old I used the same measurement of 15".
