McCall’s 5848

McCall’s 5848

Pattern Description: loose fitting, flared, lined dress above mid knee

Pattern Sizing: 4-10 I cut the 6

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?

YES!
Were the instructions easy to follow? I didn't use them.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? Jaelyn loved the style of this dress.

Fabric Used: Vera Wang Cotton

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: Jaelyn didn't like the collar and decided that she wanted a bow on the side lol.

So I basically made a long sash and finished all the edges, I put the dress on her and pinned the new collar to the dress and made sure it was placed correctly.

That was pretty much it. She loved it.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I doubt if she wants this one again, but if she does I'll make it for her. I think it's OOP because I couldn't find it on the website.

Conclusion: Cute and easy dress for my daughter.

    Wow! What a terrific job you did! I always wonder whether or not my little girl would want me to sew for her as she gets older. I guess it if looks that cute, then the answer is yes!

    So pretty! Your daughters are so lucky to have such a talented seamstress for a mother.

    That is pretty. I have a navy and white dress in the same style that I haven’t worn in a while. Gonna have to pull it out and put a springy cardigan with it. I love the neckline/collar!
