Pattern Description:
A long sleeved dress with gathered skirt

Pattern Sizing:
I made the size 7

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?
Because of the fullness of the skirt, it needed to be lengthened a few inches. Girls want to twirl in a skirt like this & we don't want them showing their undies.

Fabric Used:
Cotton

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
Omitted ruffle trim

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes, yes.

Conclusion:

In the Christmas fabric I used, she looks like Mrs Clause! Check out the photos at my blog if you have time-SewsNBows
