I finally decided to use this free fabric I got as part of the Michael Levine gift bag from the Mimi G conference in 2014. This pattern is a great way to use up those shorter cuts of fabric. I’ve made this dress before so it was super easy. The only differences from the previous version is that I made this one V-neck and long sleeved.
Pattern Description: MISSES’ DRESSES: Close-fitting, pullover dresses have neckline variations, and stitched hems. E and F: neck bands.
Designed for medium-weight moderate stretch knits.
Pattern Sizing: A5(6-8-10-12-14),E5(14-16-18-20-22)
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?Definitely!
Were the instructions easy to follow? Super, I didn’t need them though because the dress is just that easy.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I like the style of the dress but I love the ease of putting it together.
Fabric Used: I used an ITY for this version
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I made View E because I wanted to try the V-Neck. I also pegged the hem a bit for a better fit.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Uhhhh Yeah! Pronto!
Conclusion: This is a great looking and easy dress to make. It has multiple lengths and neckline options so you can make many versions of this dress and have them all look different.
Great job! I love your fabric color choice. The fit is perfect too. Great work!
