Pattern Description: Girls' jumpsuit, dresses and wrap

Pattern Sizing: Sizes 7-14; I probably made the 8

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes, mostly

Were the instructions easy to follow? From what I can remember, yes - although there were a few places that had me scratching my head

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I really liked the novel adaptation of a jumpsuit. I know it's not for everyone, but I have a big admiration for wacky things that don't go over the top. The saggy crotch look seemed really awkward (and it's not that flattering when you come down to it) but it's weirdly charming and extremely comfortable.

Fabric Used: Knit fabric from one of Joann's collections

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I don't think I made any intentional changes

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I would sew it again, but I'd have to use completely different fabric since you really don't need more than 1 striped pink saggy crotch jumpsuits. I would also recommend it to others, because it is really comfortable (even just as a nightgown if nothing else) and she's actually gotten lots of compliments on it.

Conclusion: Give it a try! It's unique but fun and very easy to sew and wear.
