Pattern Description:
This skirt and t shirt were made from asew along on my blog. We are drafting patterns from the book Design It Yourself Clothes by Cal Patch
Pattern Sizing:
I made the t shirt and skirt pattern from my measurements. It was drafted onto paper. I did make muslins first to perfect the fit.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?

Were the instructions easy to follow?
The instructions in the book are very easy to follow. Even a beginner can make these patterns.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I love having my own pattern blocks to design other fashions from now.
Fabric Used:
I used a hand block printed fabric by the designer Celina Mancurti who sent me a yard to review on my blog.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I had some problems drafting the armhole of the t shirt. To read Cal's tips on drafting knits copy and paste this link http://www.sewcountrychick.com/2012/11/design-it-yourself-clothes-sew-along.html
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?

Conclusion:

Pattern with more than 5 reviews!
