Like the look of dress. Really easy to put together but huge sizing for me. Had to take in at the back seam a couple of inches and don’t need a zipper which is good because the pale green sage linen I bought didn’t have matching zipper–couldn’t find anything close!! I like but just a little frumpy from the back.

This pattern was bought as part of a birthday gift for my daughter. I had sent the email announcing its release to her as I liked it very much but I am no longer slim and it would not have suited me. She liked the design hence the purchase. She has a demanding job, husband and two kids to care for but has cut out the dress and is hoping to finish sewing it this week end. She is still liking it.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
