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? Yes.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I love the comfort and ease of this dress.
Fabric Used: Rayon Lycra knit I found at Joann's.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I used my sloper against the pattern for the armhole area of the bodice. I shortened the length of the sleeves and did a very small sway adjustment. I also did away with the front ties and used a belt instead. There was another reviewer who did the same and I thought it looked great.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I will not sew it again because I have too many other patterns I wish to sew!!! Yes, I do recommend it to others although it is out of print (I'm sure it may be found on ebay).
This looks so much better on you than the pattern model. Great choice of fabric too!
