Pattern Description: Pullover dress has fitted, mock wrap bodice, shoulder ties, elasticized shoulders and raised (seamed) waist, fitted, narrow hem, thread carriers and self belt.
Pattern Sizing:8-24
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Pretty much except I omitted the shoulder ties.
Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Like: How this simple style showcases a bold print.
Dislike:The shoulder ties. They were very narrow and difficult to turn and in my case useless.
Fabric Used: ITY Knit
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I omitted the shoulder ties in back. Once they were on I realized that I did not need them. Everything stays in place very well without them.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I probably will not sew it again as one of these is plenty. I would recommend this pattern to others.
Conclusion: I'm happy with how this dress turned out. Please note that it has a deep plunging neckline.
Buy this pattern for $14.96 List Price: $19.95Add to Bag
