SIMPLICITY 2638 REVISITED










Pattern Description: Misses Dress or Day Gown


Pattern Sizing: size 6-16


Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yep..


Were the instructions easy to follow?

I didnt use them since I have made this one previously


I love the style of this maxidress...it is my TNT maxidress pattern.


Fabric Used:

I was reading Ms. Sheila's blog and she had made her daughter a beautiful cotton skirt with this same fabric in a blue colorway...I loved that fabric and I inquired where she had gotten it and she replied that she found it at Joann's in the quilting facrics...So I went looking for that fabric and found it and this same fabric in this pink/green colorway and bought it with the intentions of this maxidress....Thanks Sheila!!!


Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made:


I lengthened the bodice front and back by 2 inches and also did an fba...added 2 inches to the lower length.


Would you sew this again: I'm sure this one will get sewn again!!!


Conclusion: Happy sewing!!!

  2. Looooooove it. After you mentioned finding the other colorway I went to Joann's in search of it but no luck.

    The dress looks great.
