Well, it has been a bit quiet in my neck of the woods for sewing these past few months. Finally, I have sewn something. The Mayberry dress by Jennifer of Jenniferlaurenhandmade.com I have been drawn to the "classic vintage" style of her patterns. I have a few of her patterns: Bronte top, Enid Sweater, Gable top on my to-sew list and I am now eyeing the Juniper cardigan. My sewing plans for 2018 are to focus on sewing things to build my wardrobe with garments that meet the needs of my everyday life. This was the perfect pattern to get back into the swing of sewing and starting point for building my wardrobe. Mayberry Dress Pattern Review Fabric Choice: Cotton with a little stretch from my stash (Not sure of the exact contents of the fabric. It has been in my stash for quite a while). Fabric Source: Joann's Fabric (From my fabric stash) Pattern printing: I had the pattern printed at my local print shop. I just don't have the patience to tape together and then trace plus I find it more difficult to store the taped together patterns (doesn't roll as easily). Garment Construction: The pattern came together easy.
Did it look like pattern: Yes! Would you make again: Yes! I like the way it fits. It is comfortable and wearable. It definitely is a dress for all seasons. I see more in my future.
