Pattern Sizing: Size A (6-18). I made a 10, was a bit big in the waist
Instructions: They were easy to follow with lots of extras for the new sewer. I think this is a great feature plus it is on a cute and stylish pattern.
Changes: The pattern calls for the pockets to be finished with bias binding. I used the pocket pattern and used it like a facing and it worked fine. Much better than bias with this fabric. Different fabrics and styles call for different treatments with bias and/or facings.
I also used an invisible zipper in the backFabric: A stretch cotton from Joann's, very nice.
Conclusion: A great pattern for a new or experienced person, plus it is cute and stylish. Great for all types of fabric.
Meredith ready for school |
Kwik Sew denim jacket I had made years ago for Erin, it is too short in the sleeves for Meredith but just roll the sleeves. |
