I sewed her the Simplicity 1612 with an inexpensive ITY knit as a hopeful wearable muslin. $7.20 for a dress she LOVED is good. I'm winning the MOM trophy with her this year so far!

The pattern went together pretty easy. I was surprised that only a few seams were serged. The princess seams at the bust made fitting nice but there was so many layers of fabric (unserged) that you can see the fabric seam allowances.
Girl M loved the keyhole at the neck and that ties in the back. I tightened the gathers on the skirt front. She liked that look better.

This was an easy sew and I really like how it turned out. I'm thinking another version in a print would be nice.
Until next time................
