Patterno review Patch#

The skirt is just a rectangle, so it is easy to customize it to the length you want.įabric Used: A yarn dyed striped cotton from Imagine Gnats.įit: I did struggle a bit with fit on this project (which again, I should have made a muslin). This is the shorter version of the skirt, though I found it a bit short so ended up facing the hem to keep as much length as possible.

I did add some patch pockets because I wanted to play with the stripe direction in my fabric. My waist and hips are out of the size range for this pattern, but there is a lot of ease in the waist (6.5 inches) and with the gathered skirt, it didn’t really matter, so I just focused on shoulder and bust fit.Īlterations: Other than fit alterations, I sewed this pattern as drafted with the partial placket option. I cut a 22 at the shoulder then graded out to a 24 at the bust and through the waist. I measured the shoulder to shoulder width on the pattern and decided that the 22 (which matches my bust measurement) would actually be fine. But do as I say, not as I do, I would suggest muslining this parttern. Pattern Size Used: I had some concern about the fit of this pattern in the larger sizes, based on the product photos and other versions I had seen around the internet, so I decided to take careful flat pattern measurements before I cut my fabric. So keep your eyes out for that if you are interested in this pattern! This dress is currently only available up to a size 24, which is 48.5″ bust, but the pattern designer seems to be working on upgrading the sizing on her patterns up to a size 34 (hopefully that will be about at 58″ bust) and she recently sent out a newsletter stating that this pattern will soon be in testing for that new size range.
