Pattern Description: Misses' costumes

Pattern Sizing: 6-12. I made a size 12.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes, except mine doesn't seem to be as costume-y.

Were the instructions easy to follow? The pattern pieces spoke for themselves. I didn't look at the instructions.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? Very easy and fast to sew. I like the Mod look of the dress.

Fabric Used: Gun metal stretch denim.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I made my usual short waist adjustment.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I may sew a sleeveless version next time. I would highly recommend it to others, even beginners.

Conclusion: Very quick and easy to sew. Has a unique Mod look. Highly recommended!

Your thumbnail looks interesting but the link is not working. Your blog link is fine though. Nice dress!

I enjoy the "mod" look! I bought a different pattern from Simplicity that was meant for a costume as well, but I thought it would make a cool dress. Nicely done! :)
