Pattern Description: A reproduction of a 1940's dress

Pattern Sizing:6-22

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?Yes, see my blog http://sewingforfun.wordpress.com/2013/02/25/simplicity-1777-1940s-dress/

Were the instructions easy to follow?Yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?Love the pleats, but they took time and acuracy to make.

Fabric Used:ITY jersey

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:Omitted zipper, because the fabric is so stretchy I didn't need it.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?I like the dress, but one is probably enough. Unless someone else needs one too....

Conclusion: A nice dress.
