Hey Friends!!  How are you all holding up?!  Summer is just around the corner, can you feel it?!  Time to break out of all this isolation and  get some fresh air (at a distance from everyone else of course 😁).  And we have the perfect new pattern to celebrate with: introducing {Viola}!

 

Viola is the sweetest little sundress AND romper pattern...yes, yes you read that right - one pattern with option for a sundress or romper!!!!  How awesome is that? It is available in baby, girls and doll sizes, so summertime sews are definitely going to be easy to coordinate if you have multiple little ones!  
Viola features a delicate hi/low shape to the front bodice, with simple straps to allow for all day play without fussy sleeves or risk of overheating.  You can create the bodice plain, with a flounce, or create a plain bodice with a mini waist ruffle!  Viola also features an elastic back panel for easy fit and comfortable wear!!
Whether you decide to create your first Viola as a cropped romper for all-day play and exploration, or create the dress option for a little more of a fancy look, this will definitely be a pattern you are coming back to use, over and over again!  Oh, and did I mention, it also includes optional side seam pockets?! YAAASSS!!!!
We'd love to know in the comments below - which option are you going to sew up first!?!?  Such a hard choice, am I right?!
As always, Happy Sewing!!
