Take The Chance | Tiered Shirt Dress PDF Sewing Pattern
I love this pattern. I've made it more than once but I don't wear dresses much so I shortened it into a shirt. I've gotten so many lovely compliments on them, and I want to sew 10 more.
I love that you’ve adapted it to suit you! Thanks for the lovely review Trish.
I'm tall and long waisted, and with only a minor torso adjustment, this pattern fits perfectly! I usually have to do a full bicep adjustment but I just used the wider sleeve option; I also usually do a swayback adjustment but didn't need to either. Made my first dress out of quilting cotton and my husband has said multiple times that it's his favorite of the dresses I've made. This pattern will be on repeat for sure!
I love this pattern it’s so easy to use and the fabric I chose cotton lawn made a fabulous dress
Just what I was looking for. I really love it. Thankyou
