Scrap heap project: Completed 2

Left: Pale pink dot poncho tunic, Right: Dusty rose poncho dress

I completed 4th and 5th projects from my scrap heap! My 1st through 3rd projects are posted here. I wanted to make something new, but quick until I get up to my speed while I recover from the delivery. These tunics are super easy to make, and you can make them in so many different variations. These tunic and dress are made out of one big rectangle fabric! Can you believe it?

I first made the one on the left as a tunic. While I was sewing the tunic, I realized that it could be a dress by just lengthening the rectangle. I also added a waist sash for the dress version to make it somewhat different.

Is anyone interested in tutorial of how to make these tunic/dress? I can write a simple diagram of how-to if anyone wants to know:)
