Remake of B5211+ the dress
I have so many things I want to make and the newness and potential of each pattern calls to me. The rational side of me says, make as many of this one pattern as you can so you can move on to something else. The impulsive side says, cut them all, make them all now!! lol I try not to listen to the irrational side, I always rush through the garments and I end up hating my makes. This time, I erred on the rational side this month and made multiple views of this pattern before putting it away. I know there are some sewist who make a pattern once…

Pattern Review:B5211+ dress hack= Tunic
Sometimes you just want something easy to sew, this is it. I’m learning how to fit the flat pattern and make design adjustments. I made this tunic and a dress on Saturday and I like the way both turned out. This is an oldie but goodie pattern that has been reviewed 40+ times on pattern Review. Pattern Description: Dresses have back neck opening with button and thread loop closure, extended shoulders, side pockets and topstitching detail. A: Front upper and lower sections. B: Self-belt. C: Gathered sleeve with elastic casing, length 2″ above mid-knee. I made view bPattern Sizing:16-24 Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done…
