Thank you so much! I just made three dresses to wear all summer, because I like it so much. Just adjusted an additional little panel in the front, because of more bust.❤

Loved, Loved, Loved this make so creative and yet so simple. I can see how it can be adapted for fall and winter use with a long sleeved turtle neck, and legging. Which I would make out of feather wale corduroy.

Dropping the waist ties down 4 inches for my friend with a long body. 13" seems ok for us short-waisted folks though. Using a double gauze cotton.

Hello do you have a tutorial that shows how you gather the back ? Thank you for the dress it’s beautiful

@user-fs6xc6yk7g Жыл бұрын

It’s lovely thank you. It would be helpful to have the amount of ease you allow for the garment.

@SewingTherapy Жыл бұрын

Thank you! The amount of ease you choose for your bodice measurements largely depends on your personal preferences! Feel free to adjust the ease according to your comfort and style preferences.

@daxafer Ай бұрын

I agree. For example, you could share the finished measurements across the shoulders and where the ties are added (folded flat) .. then suggest adjusting to the same width as a dress, shirt, or jacket that fits the sewist. Make the length of the ties as “waist circumference plus _____ “ instead of 46” … I suspect I would need longer ties and wider panels, but knowing the model’s height and waist size would help. Keep it simple, by using the largest of the required bust, waist, and hip measurements to help beginners avoid wasting fabric on a garment that is too small to wear.

@marianaito1 11 ай бұрын

Great simple pattern but be careful, I suggest anyone making this really consider the front panel widths. I did as suggested at 11" and the dress would be a very straight tight dress for me at size 124 UK, 168 cm tall. ( I also lengthened the dress for me) Luckily I have extra fabric and can work out new wider front panels which means drafting a new neckline. Definitely would not be as loose as shown here unless you are very thin.

Hi, I love this, it’s stunning. I sew quite a bit so can easily do it and have some gorgeous soft fabric. BUT it was the quick info re measuring sleeve bit etc, I can’t grasp it! I am a size 14 Uk and 5’3”..do you think your measurements at the end will be sufficient for me to use? Thank you.

This is lovely and really want to make it but how do you work out what size each piece should be using your own measurements?

@SewingTherapy Жыл бұрын

In the video, I briefly explained about the measurements. To decide the width of the bodice, start by deciding where you want the sleeves to end. Then, take a measuring tape and measure from one sleeve end to the other. It's important to note that the measurements don't need to be exact, as slight variations won't significantly affect the final result.

@SewingTherapy 11 ай бұрын

I've created a short measurement guidelines and it's now available in the Shorts. Feel free to watch the video for reference.

How many yards of fabric , is safe to buy to make this length please

@SewingTherapy 11 ай бұрын

It depend on the measurements you select and how you arrange your rectangular pieces. A rule of thumb for purchasing fabric is to buy 2 times the length of your preferred dress length to ensure you have enough material.
