Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes the instructions were very detailed and provided good picture diagrams to indicate what to do. I didnt get lost at any stage making this dress.

Sizing:
Vogue sizing 12

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I had this pattern and didn't really think too much of it. It looks really nice and the sleeves, neck and design of the dress is great. It wasn't until I saw this version on Pattern Review by JanleeC which got me wanting one of my own. I loved her longer version and thought that would be perfect for me.

Fabric:
Lightweight knit material.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I just added the length to the skirt. I made it go a little wider at the hip to accommodate for the longer length. I think I also made the elastic a little bit smaller to ensure it wasn't showing too much of my chest. This was an easy fix and can be for anyone else to ensure you get the perfect fit for you.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes I would definitely sew this number again and recommend to others.
