Upton Skirt

I loved making the pleated Upton skirt for an event. It came out beautifully. Looking forward to many more.

Wedding Dress for my niece

My niece asked me to make her wedding dress, thanks for making a pattern with cup sizes so I could get a perfect fit!

Cute and comfortable

I love this pattern so much that I made two iterations back to back. I'm a little past the cup size range, and after doing a muslin of the bust, I elongated the band by an inch and raised the armseye a little to accommodate. Worked perfectly and both dresses got many compliments, plus they were comfortable and came together smoothly.

Upton Mix & Match Pack is Outstanding!

I made a top with the Upton pattern and it fits wonderfully. I truly appreciate the size, fit, and design versatility of this pattern pack and will be using it often.

A pattern that has it all!

The Uptown dress pattern is almost magical, in that it has so many options for fitting, including various styles. I have made it in a drapey rayon for a fancy wedding, but I have plans for one in a fun cotton lawn. This will definitely be my go-to dress and skirt pattern.
