“It really was easy and came together beautifully. Nothing felt overly complicated or fussy. And it fit so well its a great baseline that I bet I could use to make other garments like kirtles or bodices.”

"I like the versatility and flexibility to customise how you want and well as the size inclusivity. The instruction booklet makes picking this pattern up and making it so easy for someone who has very little sewing knowledge and experience. "
