Pattern Description: Maxi Wrap Dress

Pattern Sizing: 10-20 I cut the 14


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? I read over the instructions once just to make sure there wasn't anything tricky about it and it wasn't. Very easy, very straight forward, unlike the instructions in the Burda Magazine.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I loved the style of this dress. It is indeed a classic.


Fabric Used: Jersey


Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I only shortened the sleeves.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I plan on making this one a few more times. I really love it.

Conclusion: This is such a great pattern. VERY well drafted. Pick this one up if you like this style. It's a winner!
