1. Printer Settings. It's important to select the correct printer settings to ensure your pattern prints to the correct scale. You'll find printer specs in your tutorial &, for more detail, here on the website.

2. Page Printing Guide. You don’t need to print every page or size – just the ones you need. Our guide in the tutorial helps you identify exactly which pages to print.

Take the chance tiered shirt dress

I am surprisingly pleased with the way this dress has made up. Relatively straight forward. I did add more tiers and another 100mm to the length. I did a Fba and finished the sleeves differently. I have made the dress for an after wedding luncheon at a winery and wanted something comfortable and different. I will also wear this for Xmas Day.
Instructions were very comprehensive. So much info that I had to read it more than once . I am now wanting to sew something else from PE. Just can’t decide!.

Hi Vicki. Thank you for your detailed review of the Take The Chance Dress! We're so glad to hear that you’re happy with how your dress turned out and that it will be perfect for your after-wedding luncheon and Christmas Day. If there's anything we can improve to make your sewing experience even better, please let us know. We’re excited to see what you sew up next! Best, PE.
