XL Problematic
Posted by Dee White on 2nd Nov 2017
I'm a professional seamstress and costumer. I was so happy to find a larger sized historical pattern. However, this pattern has several problems. The proportions are off. The upsizing was not done to a real body. The sleeves don't fit the armholes which are way too small for a garment of this size. Then, there's the instructions which are illogical and entirely too minimal. I would not recommend this pattern to anyone who is not an extremely experienced sewer, or without the intended wearer available for fittings.

Not for me
Posted by Susan Hershey on 30th Oct 2014
First and foremost, I got extraordinary customer service from Amazon Drygoods, making sure that the pattern was in stock and that I'd receive it in time to use it. On the other hand, I had so much hope for this pattern, but after sewing a muslin sample, it became clear that it's shape was not going to fit me. Before I gave up, I was able to track down the pattern designer, as the instructions were quite difficult to follow, but I ended up having a lovely chat with her to help answer my questions.

great pattern
Posted by Unknown on 22nd Oct 2014
Loved this pattern and plan to make more than one. I had gotten the wrong size initially but with one phone call it was quickly and easily taken care of.
I only gave 4 stars because the instructions were difficult to follow. the final product was perfect and I received many compliments
