Yes, the pattern itself was not difficult in fact. Just need to know the tension of the fabric and adjust size.
I hope you will enjoy making yours!! Thanks!!

I love it! I always vote on jersey for it being confortable and fitting. This dress shows it can be chic, stylish! (Something like tha PanAm ladies with Leo DiCaprio. Haha) Cute collar!
