Okay, so I know that this isn't new or anything but I'm just so proud of how they turned out that I had to show you guys! This is an altered version of rostitchery's original pattern for the infinity dress; I had to change a few things because of the material that I used, and I also wanted to make it REVERSIBLE. Cool, no? The bridesmaids loved it, and that means that my main goal was accomplished...no ugly, wear-once dresses to hang in the closet and forget about, and the best part was that they each costed about $20!







I hope you liked them! Smiley

Well done indeed!  I love the colors you chose.  What type of fabric did you use and did you finish the edges on the straps?

ETA:  Oh wait!  Did you join both colors together along the lengths of the straps?  If so, genius!

These are fantastic!!! What an awesome idea, I never thought about the infinity for a maids dress, but it's perfect. The fact that yours are reversable bring it to a whole nother level of fabulousness.
BTW the last picture is great, I hope you had a wonderful wedding.
