Another Picture at Nightsew

Pattern Sizing:
I made a size 1

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 didn't get out the instructions but it is a very intuitive sew.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? Good solid pattern. Right proportions in skirt to yoke & sleeve flutter to yoke. Easy to cut out and sew

Fabric Used:
Silk Dupioni

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I made the final length somewhere between view A and B. I wanted it to be a dress but I like little girl dresses to be at the knee or shorter. I think it is easier for toddlers to play. I also modified the back to substitute buttons and a placket for the zipper and cut the back pieces on the fold so the self lining folds in rather than having a seam at center back.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Definitely. I'll probably make a few dresses this shape for my daughter in the summer. It makes a classic easy to wear dress in a few hours.
