Sew along: By poppy #11; blouse dress
The idea
My lovely pink cotton was used for a shirtdress for me, so I thought it would make a great shirtdress for my girl too.
The pattern
Shirt dress with inserted gathered skirt pieces, full length sleeves and stand collar.
Additional info:
- 104-176 (EU) (4-14yo US)- I'll make a 104/4 yo.
- Recommended fabrics: cottons, linens
- rated 3/6
- By poppy #11.
- ca 1 meter pink cotton with white daisies.
Cutting the fabric.
I like to turn the wide skirts upside down so the triangular shape of the skirts take up the least amount of fabric. It only doesn't work with prints with a very obvious up and down. I also put patternparts on the cross grain as the weave of the cotton is the same in both directions.
