Urban Garden Dress and Tank

OHeya! Just recently I tested the Urban Garden Dress and Tank. Heeeeh. It's the newest pattern by Sew Straight and Gather. Fun pattern, with such a wide range of sizes! It's such a classic style, it can be worn by toddlers and teens. :)


Terri is such an awesome person, It's so fun testing for her. :P I am so glad she's extending her sizes! It's my first time sewing up a pattern from her, and I am impressed! Her pattern is so professionally made.

The sizing is spot on. :) I love it! It's my first time sewing up with knit for myself, and I am hooked. This dress almost feels like it's store bought. Or maybe I'm just not used to sewing with knits. lol.


I love this dress so much, I always find myself reaching for it after it has been washed. I am sure you'll love it too!


Grab your copy in the Shop now! The pattern is on sale for only $6 until the 22nd. :)

Bonnell

Recently, Dixie from DixieDIY released a new dress pattern. The BONNELL dress!! And i was lucky enough to test for her.


It's the perfect summer dress! Features a jewel neckline, V-neck in the back (which i sadly didn't take photos of!), invisible zip, and my most favorite part, side cut-outs! There's actually a very similar dress from somewhere that I've been eyeing for sometime,  i just got so excited when i saw Dixie announce her new pattern!


The cut-outs make it look complicated, but it's actually a very easy sew! The hardest part, i guess, is installing the invisible zip, its my weakness! lol. The instructions we're thoroughly written, and will guide you through every step. You wont get lost, i promise. Hehe.


The inside of this dress is very clean because both the bodice and the waistband are lined! I love it.


I'm will surely make a couple more of this, and maybe omit the side cut-outs because I'm sure it'll still look lovely without them. The bodice is such a nice shape.

Thanks for having me, Dixie!
