Pattern Description: Dress with sleeve and shoulder strap options. Features pleats and pockets on the skirt.

Pattern Sizing:I made size 8.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?Sure did!

Were the instructions easy to follow?
Very easy.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?I liked that it came with the different bust size pattern options - always ensures a better fit with far less mucking around. I also love the pocket/pleat combination - makes your waist look smaller AND hides the tummy flab. Hooray!

Fabric Used:A Donna Karan cotton stretch.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:None.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?I would sew it again if I didn't have so many other projects vying for my attention. It would amazing done up in a sparkly fabric as an evening dress, or in a duchess satin for a snazzy cocktail number. So many projects, so little time!

Conclusion: Love this dress - the colour is great, and it's a pretty snazzy design. You can check it out more on my blog, Jorth!
