Jennifer’s Jumpers Pillowcase Dresses are seriously the most clever and adorable clothing yet, that I have seen for my little girl! I received an adorable Pillowcase dress in size 2T for my little princess to wear. She not only looked super adorable, but she was comfortable in this dress too. My little girl is a girl who does NOT like clothes on her at all. She would run around nude all day long if I let her. She is VERY picky when I put clothes on her and you know when she does not like them! When I put this pillowcase dress on her, she did not try and take it off right away. She was interested in the ribbons on the shoulders and the pretty spots on the dress itself. This pillowcase dress is quality made and so cute!
A Bit of History about the Pillowcase Dress:
The pillowcase dress was born during a time of thrift and frugality when nothing was thrown away and time was precious. I have sold my dresses in open air markets and people who looked to be at least 80 years old told me that they remembered the dresses from their childhood.
What do you do when one pillowcase is worn or torn and the other is good? Make dress out of it. What do you do with an empty flour sack? Make a dress out of it! Flour used to be sold in 40 and 50 pounds sacks made of about a yard of fabric. Flour companies used to make their brand of flour more attractive to housewives by making the sack out of pretty fabric!
The beauty of the construction of the dress was that you could use make the dress without cutting the bag or pillowcase to pieces. This was a great time saver. The other time saving part of this dress was that the dress can also be worn as a top, meaning the garment could be worn for YEARS.
