However if you want a simpler construction method without the mobus strip moment do what I do. Sew both side seams on both dresses, then with right sides together sew the dresses together all around the top edges starting at one under arm, going up the front strap around the neckline and finishing where you began. Clip or trim and turn out. Then press the hem up all the way around and your final stitching is all the way around the hem. Which is much easier as you have more room to turn the dress out and it looks like a top stitched hem. Which was what you intended anyway, Right! hope that helps.
