Penny Dress – Sew Over It

A review of Sew Over It Penny Dress

Reviewed by AnaPlanda on 19th October, 2018

The Penny was long time on my sewing list and I made this top version few weeks ago. I love it and it is perfect in this light viscose fabric in the summer heat.
I did not have enough of this fabric for a dress and wanted to test the pattern before making it in full length. Love the shoulder detail and also the placket and collar construction. It was easy and straightforward to make. I used both instructions and sewalong for collar and placket construction on their website for extra help. I initially wanted to make the front tie hack from their blog, but probably made a mistake along the way and it did not work. Then I chopped some length off and got this boxy shirt. I like it like this and already wore it few times.
