Dress a Girl Around the World
By: Carly Carper
What I did to create my project.
• Found all the materials.
• Began practicing my sewing skills.
• Finally began to sew the actual dresses.
• Sewed as many dresses as I could.
How It Worked
• First, cut the edge of the pillowcase approximately 2 inches from the edge.
• Next, sew a gathering stitch on the raw edge.• Pin the gathered skirt to the bottom of the t-
shirt.• Sew around the top of the seam.
What I Did With The Dresses
• Dress A Girl Around The World Foundation
• Girls all around the world, but mostly in Africa, will receive the dresses
How this “stretched” me
• I had no sewing skills
• Made me put myself in other people’s shoes
• Made me realize how hard some actually have it
What I learned
• How to sew
• How people in other countries live
• How to help people
• How to organize a major project
The Finished Product
