Pattern Mashing: Going Places Dress
Pattern Mashing is when you combine 2 or more patterns to create a new look.
Whether this is your first mashing experience or mashing is your jam, the Going Places Dress is the perfect for a fast & easy sewing project.
You can combine both the Spellbound & Wanderlust bodices with the fitted Going Places skirt section to create a fitted dress with armholes. Go sleeveless or add a sleeve of your choice.
In the Going Places tutorial (pages 33-42), I show you:
- how to mash different patterns together to create new looks
- which pattern pieces to use
- which sewing instructions to follow.
Below is a brief glimpse.
