Today's Dollar Store Craft is an incredibly
adorable toddler-sized bathrobe! It's perfect for throwing on after a bath or a
swim, and best of all, it's made from TWO dollar store dish towels! It's so
simple to make, yet certainly has a lot of bang for your two
bucks!
SUPPLIES:
~ Two terry dish towels -- mine measured about 14.5"x24"
(This size of dish towel yielded a robe perfectly sized for my almost-18-month-old, although these towels are a bit on the smaller side. I am sure you could find larger ones for an older toddler.)
~ Approximately 3 1/2 yards 3/4" wide cotton twill tape

~ Approximately 3 1/2 yards 3/4" wide cotton twill tape
STEP ONE:
Prewash and dry your towels and twill tape!
STEP THREE:
Fold your second towel in quarters to find the center and mark. Fold from hem to
hem and cut from one edge to the center, as shown.
STEP FOUR:
With your towel still folded cut a small neck opening, as shown.

STEP SIX: Lay
one of your dish towel halves on top, right sides together, with the raw edge
centered on the edge. Pin, being careful not to stretch the towels. Sew with a
3/8" seam allowance.
(Note: You
COULD do things in a different order -- skipping steps three and four until
after five, six and seven. I did mine this way because it was easier to fold and
find the center point of my towel before attaching the other towel
halves.)
STEP EIGHT:
Remove a small amount from the "underarm" area of the robe. Fold your robe right
sides together and cut away a 1 1/4" width rectangle. This makes the sleeves
narrower and more fitted, and also eliminates the bulky finished edge of the
towel.
At this point I serged the seams where I attached the towels to each other, then topstitched the seams down. I do recommend finishing the edges to avoid fraying, but you could certainly use a zigzag stitch if you don't have a serger.
STEP NINE: (not pictured) Sew the side seams on each side from the hem of the sleeve all the way around to the hem of the robe. Use a 1/2" seam allowance. Serge or zigzag for a finished edge on the seams. Note: If you like, you can add twill tape loops for your robe when you sew the side seams.

STEP TEN: Cut
a 1 1/2 yard length of twill tape and press it in half lengthwise, as shown.
This will be the binding for the raw edge opening of your
robe.
STEP ELEVEN:
Carefully bind the robe opening, starting at the hem on one side (finish the
ends of the twill tape by folding them inside before you sew), and continuing
all the way around to the other hem. This finishes the edge of your robe
beautifully, without the need for bias tape or a facing!
