Hattie dress

Loved the way the collar (which is cut on the bias) was applied. No puckering or gathering! A great back to school dress with nice details and not a lot of fussy time consuming details,

Cute Easter dress

Pattern was well written and easy to follow. The only part that was tricky was lining up the collar. Your measurements and seam allowances have to be extremely accurate in order for it to line up perfectly with the front bodice edges. I would have actually preferred having a separate collar and stand, but I made it work.

Hattie is cute, but make it button all the way down

The bodice button only option is very difficult to get on and off. Since it is designed for woven fabric, it’s not comfy for my daughter to raise her arms either to be honest. I love the look, but she doesn’t love the dress.

Hattie

Relatively straightforward. I wish you’d add markings to ease in the making of your patterns. For example, there is a notch on the sleeve but not a corresponding one on the bodice. I also found that the bodice lining could have been changed to have a facing only in the main fabric and a lighter weight fabric for the balance of the lining that could be used or not depending on specific choice. When you’re using expensive fabric it’s costly to use it for lining. In this particular pattern you need to use the same material on the facing area because of the turn back collar. As well the fabric could be a little heavier which doesn’t serve well to be a lining.

Great pattern

Hattie is a great pattern! I had no issues at all sewing it up! The instructions were very clear and concise. No hiccups like I often have with other pattern companies. I’ve made 4 of your patterns so far and plan to do many more. Thanks!

Hattie Dress

The plaid dress I made was adorable. But, the child had to struggle to get it on. I may add a placket to the front.

Rasy to follow instructions. Although I did some mistakes, I'm sure I'll be better at the second attempt as I'm planning on sewing many more.

Cute!

Love this pattern! My only complaint is the same one I have with the others- so many exposed seams! I wish the instructions included options for enclosed seams and other more technical finishes.
