So I have made this pattern a few times and I am about to start on another one.
I know this is a very popular pattern and for good reason there are so many lovely details and it all comes together really well.
I love the gathers in the back especially in this fluid poly, the belt hoops, the collar is a nice size and it has pockets!!
I sized down 2 sizes from the body measurement sizes, based on the finished garment measurements.
My only real tip is to make sure you mark all the pleats clearly, I didn’t on my first one and it was a bit of a nightmare.
