2943 Pattern Description
fitted dress/jumper with a square neckline has tiered, bubble & ruffled skirt options. Which view and size did you make?
size 5 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 did NOT like the way the neckline fits. The elastic in the back made the neckline seem bulky and the neckline gaped in such a way that a tank shirt was needed underneath. It turned out cute, but definitely wouldn't make another dress using this same pattern without drastic alterations. Fabric used
cotton/lycra Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
I didn't put a ruffle on the sleeeves. Simply not enough fabric.:) Would you sew this pattern again?
No Would you recommend this pattern to others?
