3588 Pattern Description
Child's dress or jumper with bodice variations Which view and size did you make?
View A, Size6 Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes If not, why?
- Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes If not, why?
- What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I really like the pretty asymmetrical front and the bell sleeves with the elastic below the shoulder. I like anything with an Asian look and the front accomplishes this. Fabric used
Heather Ross City Dogs in Orange Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
The pattern does not suggest lining the bodice, but I prefer to add linings to hide seams and give a better body to the garment.
So, I used the front and back bodice pieces to make a lining and it worked beautifully. Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes Would you recommend this pattern to others?
Yes Any additional comments
The pattern runs a bit wide so next time, I plan on making it a size or two smaller but will cut the same length as I used this time. Did you SNS what you made from this pattern? If so, add a link to your SNS here.
