My sewing mojo is BACK!! I've made like 3 dresses, a tunic and a skirt lol. More reviews to come lol *please excuse my extra puffy hair, humidity ain't NO JOKE lol*
Pattern Description: Misses Dress
Pattern Sizing: 12-18
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
YES! Even the same color.
Were the instructions easy to follow? SUPER easy.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I loved the simplicity of this dress.
Fabric Used: Ponte Roma. I'm in LOVE with this stuff.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: None
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I WILL be making this again in black. I always say that lol, but this will be a perfect LBD.
Conclusion: SUPERB pattern. Very simple and I love it.

Here are a couple additional pictures:
A back view.
I wore it with a cardigan to church. What this made me realize is that this cardigan makes me look so "Susy Homemaker" lol. I'm going to make a "jazzy" cardigan. That would have really taken it up a level lol. *point noted* lol
Alright, back to the sewing machine I go!!! I did make a vest which was the WRONG thing to start with seeing as how I haven't sewn since MOTHER'S DAY lol. So the things I've been making are just simple things. Like REAL simple. Works for me lol.
The color looks amazing on you!

Love that color on you. Cute dress, bonus it was easy. I've looked at that pattern but wasn't sure about it. You've convinced me it's a winner.

That is such a pretty dress. It's going to look good in black too.

You often pick patterns that I would never choose and always make them look great. I would never have looked at the picture and though Suzy Homemaker.

I love the color and it's looks like a fun dress to wear, but you know that I want those shoes, lol.

You look absolutely amazing in this dress! I love those heels...just bought a very similar pair :D and especially like the fluffier hair!

Super cute dress!! I'm starting to feel like a lady because all of sudden I'm in love with all things pink. For years I avoided pink. And yep, I agree, make yourself a LBD like this as well.
Posted by: MrsTDJ | July 15, 2011 at 10:55 AM
Absolutely stunning in pink!!!
Posted by: Tany | July 23, 2011 at 06:29 PM
Great looking! I have the pattern and made one of the other views in a long dress. I was wondering if you used 2 way stretch fabric that the pattern called for? I would like to make it again and do not like the shades of the two way stretch. I found a stretch taffeta in a color I love but it is one way stretch.
