Pattern Description: Misses' dress with sleeveless or cap-sleeved bodice and slim or flared and pleated skirt.

Pattern Sizing: 8 to 18

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

Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I loved the princess seams in the bodice but disliked the bodice fit.

Fabric Used: Cotton stretch sateen

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I did necessarily alter or make any design changes but I made View A with the added details of View C. I did not put the stripes on the bottom of the dress as seen in View C.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes, but I would make sure I paid close attention to the sizing of the bodice. I also recommend it to others.

Conclusion: This dress was very easy to make. I have issues with the fit in the bodice of most garments, its either too tight or too lose. But I will make this dress again with the full skirt with the sleeveless option for the summer.

I think your dress looks lovely. That is some cool blue fabric! Good luck with your fitting issues, although it looks pretty good from what I can see.

Very cute dress! Hi fellow Michigander, the beading and fabric isles are also my favorite places in the craft stores! Would love to know how you're managing to find time to do both! I'm having major difficulties figuring it out!
