MCCALLS 6083







Pattern Description:

Pattern Sizing:

I made view c size 18


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? Super easy

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I saw the jumsuits made by Erica B. and Myraida and I said I have got to have one of those. I wore this on Saturday night to an event out with my husband and it was a hit.

Fabric Used: White linen/rayon blend from Joann's. I bought this fabric on Saturday morning and wore the suit on Saturday night.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I lined the bodice in self fabric and I also lined the pants to mid calf. I made the top a little wider at bust level instead of doing an FBA..I also added 6 inches in length to the pants for my height. I also made the lilttle shrug from butterick 4731.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yep...another one planned in hot pink for my trip to Jamaica

Conclusion: Love it!!!
