Beach Towel Dress

School's out and summer vacation is here! Have you taken a dip in the pool? Or hit the beach running?

As a mom, water activities with kids is a juggling act. And if you're like me, your post-swimming towel is always falling off as you try to manage 10 other things. There's a better way! and it's SO easy.

I've seen beach cover-ups in stores for years. I've always thought to buy one but never have because I figured I could make one (of course it took me two years to get around to it)

Page 3: Beach Towel Dress

But with a simple beach towel, elastic thread, and your summer vacation dress pattern, you can easily make your own! Still on the fence about sewing with Elastic Thread? It truly is easy. You can find it at normal sewing shops and you wind it in your bobbin by hand (more detailed info about it and a Preview in our SHOP pattern):

Time to sew something for YOU. Okay, here's what I did....

I bought a beach towel at Target ($5.99, appx 56 x 29 inches). The gathering ratio was smaller here than the pattern info, but it works fine because a towel will gather up slightly less for you, due to it's bulk.

Thinner towels are best because they are less bulky.

Page 4: Beach Towel Dress

Just use the edge of the towel as your top and bottom (no hemming needed) Wind Elastic Thread in your bobbin, shir as many rows as you like (I did

about 32), sew down the side seam, add shoulder straps, and you're done! I used less than one spool of Elastic Thread for the entire dress. Of course I had to wind it onto my bobbin about 5 times.

(NOTE: if you have a Brother sewing machine and have had problems sewing with Elastic Thread, THIS info will help you.)

DON'T forget to spray and iron over the top of your shirring when finished. This will cause your elastic thread to really gather up.

Then, you're ready for the water! Wear your beach towel dress over your swimsuit,

go for a dip,

then throw it back on after you've been wet. It stays on well, keeps you dry, and allows you the freedom to accomplish 9 other things while your towel stays put.

Get out!! That is adorable. Love the mod looking circles and you just look too cute in that little number. Wish I had more time to sew for myself......it's all about the kiddo clothes over here lately. Great job! Lindsay

elise said...

genius genius GENIUS!! alas, we don't live near the beach but we do go to the Y to swim, and the hassle of trying to get everyone clothed again afterwards makes me not want to go in the first place-- this would make my life SO much easier. thank you! and you are super cute in it too:O)

JUNE 3, 2010 8:04 AM

OK, I'm kind of new to sewing, so where can I find elastic thread? This is adorable by the way!!

too too cute dana! and so true about trying to hold up a towel while holding hands in parking lots, the bags, etc. i usually just throw my clothes on & get those classy wet spots. :) wish i had the patience to learn about the elastic thread!!!!!

JUNE 3, 2010 8:41 AM

Cheryl Wilson - O'Pry said...

OMG Dana! You are so clever! And handy with a sewing machine. I won't make one because I lack your sewing talent but I would buy one! Too cute!

That's a great idea! I made a beach cover-up for my daughter from towels, but I never thought of making one for me!

WOW- so last week I was walking around Walmart and said to my husband "You know if I use Dana's Summer dress pattern I could turn a beach towel into a dress, for when we go swimming." I love your, super cute.

cutest idea i have ever seen!!!! i am definitely going to make one!!!! it's cheaper than buying the cover up too!!

JUNE 3, 2010 10:08 AM

Trina said...

You probably already know but the elastic thread is available at Walmart. It can take quite a bit depending on how many rows you shir so I like getting it cheap! Happy Shiring!

JUNE 3, 2010 10:42 AM

Sarah said...

definitely onthe list of what to make next!

This is genius!! Seriously. I even have a towel I would wear! Great job Dana!

Sabra said...

adorable! i wonder if I could thow one together before we leave for our cruise tomorrow.....

JUNE 3, 2010 11:08 AM

Emily said...

Thank you, I'm sure I can figure it out. There is also another way if you have a brother machine that I found online but can't remember the link. More less it involves using your winder just like normal thread (it will be tight and you may have to help it along) and then you just use it like regular thread and change your width to a 3.5. It worked for me on my new brother and is much easier than messing up your bobbin. Try this first ladies. I wish I had the link because it truly deserves to be mentioned.

Super cute. Makes me all the more sad that we won't be able to enjoy our beaches, for who knows how long, due to the oil spill :(

JUNE 3, 2010 11:15 AM

Anna said...

yet another reason for me to go to target (for the 3rd time this week, ha). Super cute as always! Love the idea of having a free hand for trips to the pool!

JUNE 3, 2010 11:28 AM

Katie said...

You read my mind. We just went to the lake on Monday and had to quickly escape due to a lightening storm, I was therefore running with the stroller, beach bag, 3-yr-old and everything else we brought with us...needless to say, keeping my towel on was an issue...Thanks for the tute!

JUNE 3, 2010 11:44 AM

Chelley said...

Very cute! I didn't think the towel fabric would gather up enough with the elastic thread. I have been wanting to make a coverup -- now just have to find a towel!

This is genius. Amazing. Darling. Uber Cool. Awesome. (I'm running out of adjectives.) Wait, no, I'll also invoke the traditional 90's adjective...totally RAD. That's right. I said it. And it was deserved. I can't wait to give it a whirl!

Oh my frickin goodness! I just bought that EXACT same towel to do this EXACT same thing!!! I logged on today and saw your blog and had a 2 second NOOOOOO!!!! moment, followed by an immediate, "wait. I was about to do something that DANA thought of too! That makes ME cool!" So, yeah, on to plan B :) um, love it, in case you didn't gather that from this comment! Adrianna

I tried sewing with elastic thread a couple of weeks ago and found out that it's true: it is easy! But I used a whole spool on one little area. Any guesses on how much I'll need for this cover-up?? love it!! mandy, www.craftedition.blogspot.com

and I am conveniently headed to Target today. Is it bad if I already have those towels as... towels? Is that too matchy-matchy ? :) I love it. Never thought to make one for ME! Genius!

JUNE 3, 2010 2:00 PM

Kimberly said...

wow, how funny! I was just at the store yesterday and saw some of these for little girls and thought I would like to make matching ones for myself and my daughter. "it can't be that hard to figure out.." I thought. But now I don't have to because I can just use your tutorial! Perfect timing!!!

JUNE 3, 2010 2:02 PM

sassy said...

you are so smart-I wear my beach dresses year round even here in snowy old Canada! I wear them in summer at the pool and in winter after a shower. I can't wait to try one! Thanks smart gal! :)

Love it, Dana! Will you also do a tutorial on how to eat carrot cake, Rudy's BBQ, and glazed donuts and still be teeny tiny in a swimsuit? Lol.

Oh, Dana, you've outdone yourself! This is just brilliant! And I have to thank you for all the beach photos, I've been missing the beach like crazy lately. I'd give anything to be there! Great job!!!

marisa said...

Shut up. Okay don't really..but you rock. Seriously rock. I recently bought your shortie pattern and love it. I have a Brother machine and actually winding it on the bobbin like you normally do is what worked for mine. I'm a plus size gal so I'm gonna find me a big ol towel and do this!

JUNE 3, 2010 9:48 PM

Oh thank you, thank you!! I have to make a bunch of these up. One for me, one for daughter, one for my sister, one for my mom... To anyone that has not tried shirring, it's really super easy. If you can sew a straight line (or not so straight) you can do shirring!

JUNE 4, 2010 4:08 PM

Peggy of Plush Nest said...

I saw something similar in a store this weekend and thought, "I could make that, but where will I find such cool terry cloth?" Yours is *WAY COOLER* and now I'm going towel shopping! Thank you!

JUNE 4, 2010 9:00 PM

Tina said...

This is amazing! I am going to have to make one for myself and one for my little girl! We live in Ohio so we don't get to squish our toes in the sand much. :( I did a shirring project by repurposing one of my shirts into a shirt for my daughter. I'd love for you to stop over and see it. http://ttbowtique.blogspot.com/2010/05/shirr-madness.html

fisher.cassandra said...

Oh my! This is fabulous!!! I made mine last night and used terry cloth for the straps. I'm pretty tall so shirred 37 rows! Turned out incredible. My husband could not believe the finished results (I'm a new sewer and it apparently impressed him!) I can't wait to see what else you come up with!

I have made a couple of these. I love them, but all of them have started to come undone. Is there a secret on keeping the elastic thread from coming undone? I have backsticted, but it still seems to come undone. It has even happened on the one I made for my daughter. Please help. Thanks. Jenn
