Pattern Description: Raglan sleeve bubble dresses can be made from a woven or firm knit fabric. They have a kangaroo pocket on front, elastic at the pocket openings, neckline, bottom edge, and bottom edges of sleeve. Leggings w/o side seams have elastic casing at the waist.

Pattern Sizing: XXS to L. I use XS based on my g.d.'s measurements from November visit.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? I think it will look like the photo when it is worn. Hard to get the effect on a hanger.

Were the instructions easy to follow? Super easy directions. Not a lot of steps and only 3 pattern pieces for the dress.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I liked everything about the pattern---nothing to dislike.

Fabric Used: I used a cotton print from Joanne's to make a muslin to check for fit.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: She is at the upper percentage for height on growth charts so I added 1" in length. No other changes.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I do plan to make this again & want to use a knit for the next version. I also plan to make the leggings. I recommend this to anyone looking for a cute pattern for little girls.

My inspiration came from Dixie DIY's blog which I was reading over Christmas. She made these little dresses as gifts & they looked adorable! I did not realize that sewing children's clothes was instant gratification.

Conclusion: A cute & easy pattern that is also stylish!

Your thumbnail photo looks good but the link is not working. Do you have your album set to 'private' or 'public'? Congrats on your first review!
