Description
Here it is: Our c d d -version! ;)
I made this dress for my 14 years old daughter patty. It was my first download pattern . The test square was a bit less than 10cm, so I choosed the biggest size 42. I was surprised, but the sample I made was really perfect even thougt the correct size of my daughter ist 38/40. I attached no zipper because this dress is to put on without any closer (perhaps because of the big size – i didn’t tell my daughter ;))
I am a very slowly dressmaker that means I took about 8 hours to sew and I don’t consider the time to cut to size, however I think it was worth.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH ELAINEMAY FOR THIS FANTASTIC, CONGENIAL PATTERN!! :)

I am not sure why I haven’t commented here earlier, as I think this is a really neat version of the coffee date dress! Immi, your link from the Burda Fashion discussion forum led me here… :-)

Love this dress. I have been thinking about downloading the pattern. It seems so versatile. It looks so pretty and young on your daughter. Color is great too.
