Pattern Description:
This is a simple shift dress/tunic from Simplicity's Cynthia Rowley collection.
Pattern Sizing:
I cut a 4 on top and graded to a 10 at the hips.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
No, but I planned some alterations.
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I liked the simple to follow instructions and straightforward construction.
Fabric Used:
Interlock Knit
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I made mid-length bell sleeves instead of using elastic and raised the neckline a little because it fell really low on the pattern.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes and yes!
