Not impressed

I was very excited when the tween Kennedy dress was released. I made the kids' dress in sizes 1 to 10 and was always really happy with the dress. However, I found that the Tween dress didn't fit nearly as well, the bodice was way too short and the cross-over wasn't sitting right. I tried this with two different fabric types, remeasured, and re-cut the pattern but I could not get it to work. I have been sewing for more than 30 years and really struggled with the fit on this dress.

I enjoyed making this for my granddaughter to wear to her calisthenics clubs 50th anniversary. I decided to use interfacing in the bodice to give it extra body and think it made it look better.

I really like this pattern (actually I love all your patterns). Very versatile and easy to use. I like how it can have so many expressions simply using different materials or changing a couple of pattern elements. Thank you very much for all the inspired patterns. I am a fan.

Kennedy tween

Alors le patron me plaît énormément mais après des heurede réflection je n’ai pas réussi à l’assembler . Ne comprenant pas du tout l’anglais je n’ai pas réussi à avoir une traduction suffisamment clair . Donc j’ai laissé mon ouvrage de côté . Dommage . Si les pdf pouvais être en français je régenterais inexpérience . Je suis plutôt couturière intermédiaire je pensais y arriver . Merci pour ces jolis patrons
