The Paper Doll Dress

Update: The Paper Doll Dress Pattern is now available in my Etsy shop. Giveaway winners (Liz and Desi) at the bottom of the post! Thanks everyone for the entries and nice comments!

I've been sewing up a storm (along with my wonderful pattern testers!) trying to get my two fall patterns finished. The Paper Doll Dress is ready for release and will be in my Etsy shop this week. But FIRST....you have a chance to win it! See details at the bottom of the post and I'll pick a winner this Tuesday evening. My fall recycled knit pattern to come soon....just adding some options to it!

How great are the big "collecting" pockets?

So comfy and perfect for layering......can't wait until it is cool enough for ribbed tights and clunky brown boots.

Wow, was this a pose?

I've stocked up on "home spun" cotton plaid. They are great for mixing and matching and usually run between $2.99 and $3.99 a yard.

The pattern includes an "idea" book for customizing your dress.....

.....and different pocket and applique templates.

If you are scared of buttonholes...... this is the pattern for you. I show step-by-step how to create a button hole WITHOUT having to use any fancy settings or attachments. An easy solution.

There are no zippers or buttons in the back....the dress is easy to step in and out of (or over the head) with the straps buttoning in the front
