Fibre Mood Nellie Dress

Buy the Nellie Dress sewing pattern from Fibre Mood. There’s no need for bells and whistles with this simple mini dress. Both the sleeves and body flare towards the hem. The round neckline is finished with bias tape. A button and loop secure the deep slit at the back. Sometimes straightforward is best. Loose, no-nonsense, and easy to wear – who wouldn’t want that?
