Really lovely dress

This is a very lovely dress, and comfortable to wear. The instructions are easy to understand and it is not a complicated pattern, so  confident beginner should be able to manage it. I previously made Megan’s Olive dress which again was lovely and a very similar design to this. The Olive dress I made in my usual size 12 and is was too big so I decided to make a toile for the Darling dress (thank goodness) as a size 8 fitted me so perfectly,it’s only necessary to make the toile for top and sleeves . Love these dresses with pockets. The only thing I would change is the tie belt insertion I would prefer to insert this into the side seams and make the belt much longer. The fabric I used was Liberty Tana lawn which suited this style.
