I made the dress with the flounce sleeves from the Besties Tee. A perfect combination in every way. I love wearing it and loads of people stop to give my compliments on what I am wearing. Have already made a second with a scoop neck and 3/4 sleeves.
I love the pattern but have not had a chance to sew it out. I have been very busy redesigning my sewing studio and remodeling my home.
This is a nice easy pattern and as always the instructions are great. I have only made this once so far. What I found is that it feels a little snug under the arms even though I made the correct size for me (size 12). This could be because I used a fabric without a lot of stretch. Next time I am going to size up a bit and see if that helps. It could also be because I don't like clothes to fit too snugly. Apart from that, the pattern is great and fun to make.
Hi Kate,
Yes, this pattern definitely needs the recommended 4-way stretch fabrics (see page 6). Low stretch would absolutely make it quite snug & a little uncomfortable.
I made the dress out of french terry. I chose to bind the neckline and the sleeves (3/4) using a woven bias. I did make a mistake on the arms in that I incorrectly used 1/2 seam (read instructions!) v. 1/4" serged seam. I recut a second dress and sewed that correctly, and the arms were perfect. This is a fantastic dress for beginners or those who have let their garment skills go dormant to have a low stress re-entry into garment sewing.
I made this top in a long tshirt length using a very soft viscose jersey. Beautiful. Worn quite fitted around the shoulders and sleeves and skims over the bust and drapes to the hips. As quite a pear, i expected this top to accentuate my hips and loose the shape of my waist. Quite the opposite. The style of this top is very flattering. Lovely pattern and excellent instructions.
