| Pattern Review | 6/9/11 5:09 PM | Simplicity - 1218 1944 Misses Housedress
I fell in love with this pattern on Etsy and I think it's pretty obvious why: POCKETS. The pattern dates to 1944, and it's a printed/perforated pattern.

Pattern Description: Pullover dress: it has an option to look more like the ubiquitous 'duro' but I chose the view with set in cap sleeves and a V neckline.
Pattern Sizing: 6-8-10-12, I made a 10 (although I think it was an 8 in some places).
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern enve...more... |
