About a week ago I tricked my non sewing sister into stopping by Hnacocks with me to "pick up a few things" after our weekly lunch date. They were having a pattern sale and my sister spotted this and I had to have it. I loved the collar and the shoulder princess seams.
Pattern Description: Inspired by Project Runway.
Misses'/miss petite dress sewing pattern with slim or flared skirt.
Pattern Sizing: 12-14-16-18-20
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?
I loved the collar and loved the princess seams.Fabric Used: Grey wool woven. Dont remember where it came from!!!
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I always do an FBA. I did a 1 and 3/4 inch FBA. I also added 1 and 1/2 inches to the front and back bodice pieces at the lengthen/shorten lines. I added 3 inches to the skirt length, but next time I will add another 3 inches as I like my skirts a little longer. I used the cap sleeve, but I added 4 inches in length and I also added a sleeve band. I also did a full lining and used an invisible zipper.
Would you sew it again?
Would you recommend it to others? Yes, I really like the way this turned out and I will make it again someday.
Conclusion:
Great pattern that is stylish and easy to alter.
