Naturally, that story held no purpose to this post. Just my inner need to search for validation, I'm sure. ;)
Back when I did Flip this Pattern, I practiced sewing up The Hattie Dress by Brownie Goose, so I thought I'd share what I thought about the pattern.
In my humble opinion, one of the biggest things going for this pattern it's cute semi-vintage vibe. Tunic or dress, it felt very Brady Bunch but modern enough that it still works.
The collar was a fun twist on a normal collar.
And I always like when a pattern uses cotton just because I have so much of it in my stash. I also thought the front pleat was functional and cute. The back is held closed by a button and elastic, which was simple to attach.
The sleeves were also cute and I liked the little gather + cuff on the end made for a more professional finish.
I did recieve the pattern for free as part of Flip this Pattern, but these are my thoughts, free or not. :)
PROS:
Easy to understand instructions
Cute pattern and unique pattern. {Not like a lot of other patterns}
Uses cotton which is easy to sew with
Fit was accurate {a little on the loose side, but that's the style of the pattern}
CONS
Honestly, I don't even know if this counts as a con, it's not a pattern that I would normally sew with, if that makes sense. I tend to gravitate towards knit based patterns. That's not really the patterns fault. I just usually opt for a different style, but the style of the pattern can easily be modified and it's a fun sew!
Overall, I feel like it's a cute pattern. I made a dress for Lila and a few tunics for Madelyn and they've held up well!
Cute little Cindy Brady! This is darling. I'm guessing the collar is tricky, but you make it sound easy!
