    I don't have a sewing machine. Is it okay?
    Community Answer
    It would be fine. It would just take longer if you hand sew everything.

    What size sheet do I use?
    Community Answer
    If you're more slender, try either a full or twin. If you are plus size try using full or queen size sheets.

    You can either hot glue it with a hot glue gun, or sew it by hand with a thin needle.

  • Question
    Can you make just a skirt like that?
    Community Answer
    Yes, you can. You will need a rubber strip or a drawstring at the waist to tighten, it though. Check out the article on How to Make a Maxi Skirt . Disregard all of the steps except for the instructions on how to stitch in the rubber.

  • Question
    Is there a specific thread pattern that works best for this?
    Community Answer
    I would use a cross stitch to keep the seams from fraying. Plus, it will add some nice decoration to your dress.

  • Question
    Which types of fabrics should not ever be used when making summer dresses from bed sheets?
    Community Answer
    Heavy ones that are too thick and add too much weight to the dress, as it would be harder to sew together.
