Pattern Description: Misses Wrap Dress Kwik Sew 3489
Pattern Sizing: I cut the X-Small
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done with it? Yes for the most part.
Were the instructions easy to follow? This is a very easy wrap dress to put together and the instructions are very clear.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I love the classic wrap and this pattern is just that. It also has a collar you can add and if you really wanted too you could easily add cuffs. The sizing runs big but not terrible, I cut the X-Small and still took out about an 1.5" in the bodice for the fit I wanted.
Fabric Used: Striped Knit (links on the blog)
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I squared off the front wrap because I wasn't feeling the rounded edge.
Would you sew it again? Oh yeah, this wrap dress pattern will get many uses and because it is so simple you can add design elements easily like pockets.. now that I think of it I should have done that, LOL
