full dress shot

semi-action shot

Pattern Description: High-waisted dress with lined bodice and option for full or narrow skirt.

Pattern Sizing:I cut in between sizes 10 and 12.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?It looked like the line drawing; I think the fabric selection made a big difference with the overall look on the cover. I made view C.

Were the instructions easy to follow?yes, very easy.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Like: only a few pattern pieces to cut out, easy to sew up, looks very tailored, is flexible in terms of what fabric to use. I made this dress start to finish in one day.

Dislike: nothing at all

Fabric Used:cotton

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I understitched the bodice and sleeves and used horsehair braid at the hem in order to flair out the skirt a bit.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?Absolutely yes!

Conclusion: Very easy and great for work and play!
