I saw a cute pattern for a maxi dress on Pinterest the other day and just knew it was something that I could do. So I went to Hobby Lobby and found some scrumptious tie-dyed material and brought it with me to my lake house for the 4th of July week. While hubby was playing golf one day, I drug out the old sewing machine and started sewing. Actually this pattern requires very little in the way of cutting a pattern and not much sewing. Very easy. One thing though, at first I didn't think I got enough material to actually be a maxi dress, but I really wanted one that went above my ankles. I am 5'4" and bought a yard and a half of material and it goes to about mid-calf or so. Just perfect. I will provide the link for the dress instructions here
