Make a Dress Phone Case

Steps
Sewing the Upper Part of the Dress
- Draw a dress pattern on the paper. Cut off the upper part felt shape using the paper pattern as a guide (this should be cut a little bigger than the paper size, though). Cut the other pieces of felt in the same size and way.
- Use ribbons to make three crosses and sew them on the felt.
- Cut two pieces of ribbon and cover them at each side of the crossed ribbon, leaving the middle crossed places out.
- Fix the ribbon with pins; seam along the inner edges.
- Cut the redundant ribbons; do the same to make the other side ribbon.
- Place the two pieces of felt together faced with the front size; insert a half-folded ribbon upside; seam the two pieces of felt; leave the lower part open.
Finishing Work
- Stuff the quilting into the upper body and suture the whole opening.
- Take out a piece of organza ribbon; sew upper side of the organza ribbon; tie off the thread slightly to make it curly.
- Secure the upper part with the organza ribbon.
- Sew one end of three ribbons to the junctions of the two parts in a row.
- Make three bows with a bead in the center; sew a bow to each hanging ribbon.
- Prepare three flowers; cut organza ribbon to a heart shape; arrange flowers on the organza ribbon. Add some beads or other decoration around the flowers. Sew the heart shaped ribbon at the right shoulder of the dress.
