Girls Sleeveless Flowy Tent Dress (2-10 Years)

This sleeveless tent dress is a relaxed, easy-wearing style for girls who want something comfortable to move in. The A-line shape falls softly from the shoulders without a waist seam, so nothing pulls or binds during play, and the sleeveless cut keeps things cool when the weather turns warm. The simple silhouette makes it a friendly project for sewists who prefer a straightforward make with a quick finish.

Light, drapey fabrics show the flowy shape at its best. Cotton lawn, voile, double gauze, chambray, linen blends and soft rayon all work well, and crisper quilting cotton gives a slightly fuller swing. Wear it to the park, on holiday, at summer barbecues or over a swimsuit on the way home from the beach, and layer it with a long-sleeve tee or leggings as the season cools.

Sizes run from 2Y to 12Y (2Y, 3Y, 4Y, 5Y, 6Y, 7Y, 8Y, 10Y, 12Y). The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on US Letter or A4 paper (one file for both), and it also includes an A0 file for printing at a copy shop. Each size is a separate file, so you print only the size you need.
