Nice pattern but why no UK sizes on the pack?
Nice pattern, easy to make, versatile but why on earth are there no UK sizes on the pattern. The shop assistant spent more than 20 minutes on the internet trying to work out the sizing in UK clothing sizes and in the end I just gave up and took a chance. There are measurements on the pack, but the child I was making for lives 200 miles away. I find the same with lots of patterns.

A pretty dress but tricky to put on
Makes a lovely dress and fairly easy to follow but it’s difficult to get on and off my daughter with only 3 buttons. I’d add an extra one or use a zip instead if I made it again. A made the version with tied sleeves, which are fiddly but turned out nicely. I was also surprised by the length of the dress because it is much longer that I expected based on the photos/drawings.

Excellent for beginner
When I first opened this pattern I did take a sharp intake of breath and think oh goodness I am never going to be able to do this but after a coffee and my weekly dose of sewing bee I sat down at my machine for the first time in 10 years and made my daughter a lovely dress! I have since made another using the same pattern and am really happy with the result

Easy to follow pattern
I have only had my sewing machine for two months now and I'm still very much a novice.
But I'm loving my new hobby. My granddaughter is very happy with the dress I made her . This pattern is very easy to follow for beginners and the end product looks professional . My daughter couldn't believe I made it.

This pattern was relatively easy to follow and the dress turned out well
I am a beginner when it comes to machine sewing but found this pattern relatively easy to follow. There were some steps that could have clearer if split into two separate steps, but on the whole I managed to decipher it. The dress it produced was just what I wanted!

Cute outfit
I bought this to make some dresses for my 2 girls. The pattern is easy to follow and not too hard to see them together. Also I love how they include the patterns for the cute animals to sew if I want to. It is a wonderful pattern to work with.

Lovely childrens pattern.
Ideal pattern for my three Granddaughters. I can use the three variations in the pattern for each of them. The designs are unusual and individual, so should make good dresses. Also includes optional accessories which look good.

Great pattern
This is a pretty little dress for a young girl. It’s good having the three options as well as the bag and hair band. My granddaughter loves the rabbit appliqué. I am sure cat lovers will love the cat version as well.

Granddaughter is fussy
Granddaughter’s school has no uniform and she likes a clean dress daily, also ones that are different to chain bought. This pattern gives a good selection and is adaptable.

Fairly straightforward to make
I didn’t notice pattern was US sizes so was too big for my toddler grand daughter but managed to adjust. My daughter was delighted.

Very nice pattern.
My grandaughter was thrilled with this pattern. However, I now need to make matching handbags for each of the dresses!
