I know this is a super-old post, but I finally got around to trying the tutorial. Sort of. My daughter got a pretty, trendy dress that is awfully short. I won't let her wear it without some shorts underneath, but all of her shorts are a little bulky to wear under a dress. I picked up a big, huge black t-shirt at the thrift store and followed this tutorial. Except I made them into shorts instead of pants. They aren't good enough for her to wear alone, but they are perfect for under her dress. I added some elastic-lace to the hem to make them a little pretty just in case they show a bit. The dress is long enough that they should never show. Unless she is picking something up off the ground!
I didn't ask her to model them for a photo because it just seemed weird.
She must think they are good because she is asking me to make her a dress! I keep telling her I'm not
that good yet!
