I made the dress recently. It was fairly easy to make. This is the second dress that I have ever made and her video was really helpful.
Muy lindo, uno de los pocos patrones que venden bien construidos. Están perfectos ningun problema para montarlos.
The most informative and precise digital sewing pattern I have ever found. I printed on a4 and papers matched each other perfectly. I made some modifications to suit my personal styles. Added sleeves. Reached out to seller for some questions and she is very attentive and helpful.
Amazing pattern. Not for a beginner but a lovely chalange to sew!
Ich würde dieses Schnittmuster immer wieder verwenden! Freue mich schon weitere Kleider damit zu nähen :)
Easy to follow and adjust
Great and stylish pattern. Just make sure you select the right size and not the finished size like I did. It came out beautiful but unfortunately I have to make all over again, but that was my mistake. My granddaughter loved it.
Nice pattern, super easy to follow, plus the video tutorial is great!
Great pattern! A bit complex, but I'm a beginner so it should be a walk in the park if you have more experience than me.
I'd definitely have to recommend watching the corresponding youtube video (its linked in the pattern instructions)! It was very helpful
What a cute pinafore pattern! I made this in a day using stretch pleather.
Facile à faire, et très joli rendu.
Excellent pattern and easy to follow.
