Which view and size did you make? 8
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 liked the style cause it would fit my heavy top child. I didn't like the fact I had to redraft the top to fit her. Once I added the knots the bodice went up way to high making the bodice go right under her armpit. So it didn't fit.
Fabric used Cotton woven
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend The bodice is to small and my child measurements where that of a size 8 for her pattern. Her weight was 63 pounds.
Would you sew this pattern again? No
Would you recommend this pattern to others? No
Any additional comments I like it once I redid the top but I should not have had to do that since my dd was the correct measurements and under the weight for size 8.
