Pattern Description: Misses fitted wrap dresses have waist seam, flared skirt with shaped front edge, V-neckline, bust darts, and self-fabric ties. View A ties at the side and has collar and full length sleeves. View B has wrap around ties that tie in front, and very short sleeves

Pattern Sizing:
XS - XL - I used Small on top and Medium on bottom. I normally would go for a medium all around but after reading some online reviews, I felt the small on top would be a better fit. It was great - I do need to wear a cami underneath however.

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?
What I really liked about this pattern is how the instructions are so clear and descriptive. Very easy to follow!

Please be advised the photo goes to my blog - the pictures where I'm wearing the dress are a bit dark.
Fabric Used:
Cotton jersey - the photo links to my blog where I post information about the fabric and where I purchased it.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I made version A with the neckline for B - I didn't want a collar but I did want long sleeves. I also squared the skirt because I didn't want the curve. I may use the curve for a summer dress.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes! and Yes!

Conclusion:
Great, great pattern if you love wrap dresses - I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it

	sewbehind said... Nice dress. Vogue 8379 is a true wrap. It looks as if Vogue 8379 has a fuller skirt than this one, although I can't be sure. In any event. Your dress looks lovely. (Stay away from high wind situations ;) 1/19/13 11:28 AM
