**This is the LAST of the cruise clothing lol, thanks for taking time out to look at all the things I made**
Pattern Description: Dresses A, B have fitted, pleated bodice, front neckline finished with bias tape, back zipper, flared skirt and stitched hems. A: armholes finished with bias tape. B: three-quarter length sleeves and purchased belt.
Pattern Sizing: 14-22
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
YES!
Were the instructions easy to follow? I only glanced over them. Seemed straight forward enough lol.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Fabric Used: ITY Jersey
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I omitted the zipper. I hardly ever use a zipper in a knit.Here are a closeup of the neckline:
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I doubt if I will sew this one again, but I do recommend it.
Conclusion: Great dress.
Cute dress, you look great in that color.

Every time I look at your sewing projects, it makes me want to get my machine out. You already inspired me to yarn, mostly crochet with a little bit of basic knitting. Thanks for inspiring!
