Clover Maxi Hack & Giveaway
Oh Clover, you have been my most recurring pdf pattern. I have made Clover Child, Clover Tween, Clover Dress add-on Child, Clover Dress add-on Tween and now Clover Dress Misses pattern. I have also hacked Clover into a top and now I want to share with you how you use the original sewing pattern and turn the Clover Dress into a maxi length dress. Below I will have measurements for all size ranges Child, Tween and Misses.
But before we get down to business, here are some maxi dress photo inspirations…
Clover as a maxi is just so dreamy!!!
Fabric Details:
Misses Dress: Spoonflower
Tween Dress: Atelier Brunette
How to Assemble the Maxi Skirt:
-Cut your skirt according to the charts below.
-Sew the front and back skirt side seams together with a 1/2" seam allowance just as you did with the Hi Lo skirt.
-Follow the tutorial instructions just as you were sewing the Hi Lo skirt. Hem, with a 1/4", 1/4" seam allowance. So simple, right?!!

I love to decorate for the holidays & enjoy a nice evening by the fireplace. Also, sewing while the winter is blustering outside.
My favorite winter activity is to take our kids sledding. We have a husky who loves to pull the sled and hearing their little giggles is just the greatest!
My favorite winter activity is either sewing or reading snuggled up with some hot cocoa and my kitty Hunter. I so love your patterns!! I get so much inspiration from your Facebook group too. Thank you !!
Our favorite winter thing to do is make Christmas ornaments with the kids!
Love all the winter things! Hot chocolate, baking all the things, and bundling up to watch Christmas movies!
