Fantastic versatile pattern

I made this pattern up in an organic pinwale corduroy for the autumn and I am delighted with the dress. The pieces fit together very well giving a satisfying result.
The pattern instructions were very clear and easy to follow with plenty of images. In fact I learnt some new ways of doing a collar, a sleeve placket, and a sleeve cuff that made the process easier. As the shirt element doesn't have a yoke or darts or require fitting, it removes some complications, and it still draped nicely.
I chose to add one single tier to my dress because I had less fabric than the pattern stated and it worked well - I just lenthened the first skirt tier.
This is an impressive pattern with lots of variations and I know it's going to become a favourite of mine for years to come. My head is busy imagining it in a lighter fabric for next summer!
