Waves & Wild Child Eclipse T-shirt and Dress

Buy the Baby/Child Eclipse T-shirt and Dress sewing pattern from Waves & Wild. The Eclipse is an amazingly versatile t-shirt and dress pattern. There are options for t-shirts and dresses with long sleeves, short sleeves, gathered sleeves and a self-lined crossover hood.

The Eclipse is the sister pattern to the Emi T-shirt and Dress, so the sleeves and skirts of the two patterns can be mixed-and-matched, creating a huge number of different designs from just two patterns! The Eclipse skirt can also be combined with the free Lunar T-shirt and Amber Singlet patterns to create even more options.
