Simple but beautiful flower girl dresses

Lovely pattern and easy to use for an experienced dress-maker.

Stunner of a Dress

I was intimidated at first to make this dress even though I'm an experienced sewer, but I think it was mostly the tulle that was what was holding me back. I decided to use mesh tulle instead of the regular kind, and it made it not difficult at all. I used a satin crepe for the bottom layer, and nude mesh for the middle layer and the glitter star fabric for the main event. My advice for anyone making this dress it to break up the work and do not be in a hurry. The sew along videos on the Facebook group was very helpful as well when it came to getting all the layers together and putting in the zipper. I opted to do an invisible zipper. I really enjoyed making it, and I think it turned out beautiful. My granddaughter is 3 1/2 and I cut a size 4. I didn't make any alterations to the pattern. She loved it and wore it all day on Christmas. It's worth the effort!

I was a bit intimidated to attempt this dress, even though I’m an experienced sewer, but it was mostly about the tulle. I used mesh tulle instead of regular, and it wasn’t bad at all. Do not be in a hurry when you make this dress! Instructions were clear and the Facebook sew along videos were very helpful. It fit my granddaughter perfectly with no alterations to the pattern.

This is a lovely dress. I’m planning on making it for my granddaughter as a flower girl dress, but it will be for next September. I haven’t started yet.

Beautiful Dress

Directions were very clear and the sew along on Facebook was a big help for some good tips. The dress turned out stunning and fit my granddaughter perfectly with no alterations to the pattern. It was a challenging sew due to the tulle, but the design was really nice and it came together well. Give yourself ample time to construct this garment and you will be pleased with your final project.

Fancy and cute!

I enjoyed sewing up the Primrose. I made the woven skirt design and gathered inside. Love the short flirty sleeves!

Confusing instruction but happy with outcome

Had a terrible time trying to print it and cost me a lot more money to finally do so. Being a sewer for 50+ yrs, actually found some instructions confusing and it didn’t seem to follow a logical order. Happy with finished product but markings for important points would have helped. Assumed no prior and/or background knowledge.

More complicated VFT pattern

I love VFT and I bought this one to do during their sew along. It made for nice special occasion dress. That being said, it was one of the more complicated/time consuming dresses I have made from VFT patterns. I would not recommend it for a beginner.

Beautiful

I’ve made 2 of the simple woven versions with concealed waist seams and love them. I sized up so they should cover us for 2 summers but still look great now.

Maybe it’s my printer

but some pieces don’t seem to line up as well as I’d like. So far I’ve been able to put things together but it would be much easier if you had printed on each piece the name of the piece and the name of the pattern, eg. Flutter sleeve, 1 of 2, Oaklyn. Actually what would be perfect would be to have the option to have patterns printed at a printing shop and have full size pattern pieces. I get other patterns that offer you the option and it’s much better for me to get the printing shop to do it - and fairly cheap. All that being said, I love the patterns, and I love seeing all the finished garments. I am now the queen of plackets and KAM snaps - thank you for that!

Primrose is my next project

Each pattern I have purchased has been a joy. So many options keep them fresh each time. I have not yet made the Primrose. Going to have a weekend sew fest in my sewing room to make a few for my goddaughters. Thank you

Girls dress patterns

The number of stars is equal to the number of patterns out of the total number I purchased that I was able to print. Your patterns are so cute, but I have had so much trouble printing them I‘ve come close to shooting my computer. Some print perfectly, some not at all after several hours trying. Also, I would prefer less color in the instructions. When patterns do print, they use a lot (lot) of ink.

Vídeo tutorial

Mis conocimientos de costura son pocos, sería muy recomendable acompañarlo de un vídeo tutorial. Así seria mucho más fácil como otros que ya tenéis. El patrón me encanta pero no me atrevo a coserlo porque no tengo muy claras las explicaciones. Muchas gracias

Lovely dress

The pattern was well written and easy to follow. My first time working with tulle, and while I didn't love making it, the end result is worth it. My granddaughter loves it.
