20 DIY Dress Tutorials for Spring

Believe it or not, the weather will heat up and the days of boots and leggings with everything will fade in lieu of something lighter. If you're feeling adventurous, why not try sewing a dress this spring? It's easier than you think (and cheap!) to make something functional you'll love. 

Now, let's be clear. I'm not talking the kind of "dress" where you take your husband's shirt, tie a few quick knots around the girls, and hope nothing flops out as you hoist children in and out of the shopping cart. No. No. I'm talking an actual dress for women who maybe have birthed a few kids, who's parts might appreciate a supportive undergarment or two (hand raised enthusiastically), and who definitely will do moves similar to yoga to get said children through a public restroom unscathed. You need something cute, quick, and functional... I get it!  So prepare to shave those pasty legs and paint those neglected toes... spring is coming.
