Olivia Pattern Description
Hooded Dress w/ over dress Which view and size did you make?
98/104 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?
No If not, why?
I didn't actually go with the directions that came with it. I went to their website and used the step by step with pictures. This worked great.
I would not call the directions that came with it sufficient for a beginner. What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I love how easy it is to modify this dress. I find it difficult to remember which bit of the hood is for around the face and I have to mark it in order to remember. Fabric used
Light weight knits Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
Just have fun! It's so easy to change as needed. Because my daughter is so skinny and tall I make the 98/104 without any seam allowance but made the length the at 110, honestly it could be even a bit longer for growth room. Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes Would you recommend this pattern to others?
Yes Any additional comments
