ARE you struggling to find the perfect summer dress?
If so, have you ever tried making your own?
For many of us, we can spend hours walking around the shops, only to be left with disappointment when we can’t find the exact thing we are looking for.
But one fashionista decided to take things into her own hands and instead of spending hours looking for the perfect dress, attempted to make her own one instead.
Megan Crampsey is a lover of painting, but recently turned her hand to a sewing machine, to create a gorgeous summer dress.
And to make her stunning dress, she used an Asda bedsheet – yes, you heard that correctly.

Rather than buying an expensive roll of material, Megan picked up a bedding set from her local Asda, costing her just £9.
With her skills and a sewing machine, Megan was able to completely transform the bedding set, into an oversized tiered maxi dress.
Megan took to TikTok to show off her DIY dress, with the caption ‘From an Asda duvet to a dress fit for a Spanish summer’s evening’.
At the start of the video, Megan shows off the Asda duvet set – a King size, easy care set, covered in tigers.
