Welcome back to sewing

I have alot of experience sewing but hadn’t done anything in quite sometime. This was a wonderful way to get back into making clothes. The patterns were simple and the instructions were great. Once I got going I made 2 dresses in a matter of a few days. I think this would be perfect for the beginner!

I had a little trouble with the burrito method pulling collar and sleeve through, but did better the second time. Clear instructions.

Piper dress review

The Piper dress pattern was a simple but chic pattern with very clear instructions. It was a dream to sew up and i have at least 3 models already. I know for sure that there will be others in the future.

Sweetest Piper ever!

LOVED sewing a sweet little Piper for the spring! I love that it is lined and the original back center seam is no longer there. This revised Piper pattern is so easy and fun to put together! So sweet and simple with plenty of versions to make and re-make!

Easy pattern with cute results!

I have made a few of the Piper doll dresses. The pattern is easy to follow and the results are adorable. I will definitely be making more for the dolls and possibly a few matching Pipers for my daughters.

Perfect as always!

I used this on a stuffy and it was a perfect fit. Easy to follow instructions though you can skip the burrito roll since the back of the dress is open, making it even easier.

I love this pattern!

I have already made both a dress and a top, with and without the bow. I love how simple and fast it is, and how timeless the design. Next up I'm going to attempt a boy version. It reminds me of vintage newborn clothes. Thanks for such a great pattern!

Simple and sweet!

This was a pretty simple and sweet dress I made for my cousin’s newborn. It was a little difficult pulling fabric through for the burrito method for the ruffle sleeve option, which may be because I was making it for a newborn, but otherwise pretty simple and quick to make with amazing results.

Sweet Dress/Top

Loved making the Piper top. My only issue was the back - hard to get on baby, so had to put a zipper in the back, which affected the bow. Needless to say, turned out very cute!!

Lovely vintage feel

Good explanations, a fun sew. I will understitch the collar next time and grade the sew allowance to make it lay better.
