Purchased pattern to make a dress for my daughter to attend a friend’s birthday picnic. Thorough and clear instructions and a breeze to make. Thank you for sharing you’re creativity.
I really enjoyed the sewing process. The only issue I had was some excess bulk at the point. Not sure if it was how I interface the V and the insert. This was a wearable muslin from some cheap fabric I had at home. The pattern lends itself well to stripe play too
Looks a fab pattern either as a top or dress. Just need the time to make it.
I am making a top. The directions are very clear and easy to follow.
I’m really excited about this pattern! I’m going to be making the Olive dress for my daughter in a mustard yellow linen check (photo will follow later), and can’t wait to plan some tops for myself. Megan Nielsen patterns rock!
