I needed a classic, but not too dressy black dress for the fall/winter.
This pattern was wonderful! It was my first return to sewing after many years and I had NEVER sewn with a knit. I chose a black Liverpool knit fabric hoping it would be less wiggly than lighter knits.
The pattern was very easy to follow and I learned some new techniques along the way. The dress came out beautifully and I now have a classic black dress I feel confident in!
I will absolutely be making this pattern again.
This pattern was simple to construct, required almost no modification, and went together quickly. The result was a very comfortable and flattering summer dress. I’m already planning to make more for the fall season!
Awesome first project, and the dress turned out phenomenally. Now working on making an Appleton to try that style out too. Customer service has been top notch too- happy to be on this journey with this company.
I've made 3 of these in the past 6 weeks. I have made several before as well. I used the pattern I had adjusted about 2 years ago (I should have redone, but was lazy), and I still wear the other ones. I have plenty of fabric stashed for more. I'm thinking one for every holiday. The green one was for Halloween, the maroon one was for Thanksgiving (decided the night before I needed something new to wear), and the snowman one was for a Holiday Craft Fair, where my class was selling the candles they make. I had a Upton planned, but ran out of time. I'm thinking I need one for each Holiday-my students would enjoy that.
I love this dress! It was a quick and easy sew. I made a 12 C/D cup graded to a 14 at the waist and hips. The size calculator said grade back to a 12 at hips but I did not do that. I added the pockets found on the Cashmerette website and lengthened the skirt by 3 inches for a midi length. The fabric was an Art Gallery knit, 95% cotton and 5% spandex, purchased from Children’s Corner, Nashville, Tennessee. The instructions are clear and there’s a sew-along on the Cashmerette website. The dress is extremely comfortable—almost like a nightgown. The V-neckline is flattering and not too low.
I have already ordered fabric from Mood Fabrics for another Turner. This time I’m going with a ponte that does have 50% stretch. This version will have the 3/4 length sleeves. I’ll use a lighter weight fabric for the pockets and lining.
I actually bought this for myself since the nursing expansion only comes in the larger sizes. I discovered I work better with the smaller size range so I freehand duplicated the expansion style and have been quite happily making tons of concord nursing tees and lengthening it to make dresses. My friend was visiting the area and I asked if she was interested in sewing since I had the pattern in her size. It turns out she doesn’t have time but none of her clothes fit properly. I took her measurements, got fabric on my way home and had one sewn for her without staying up late before she left for the airport the next morning! Thank you cashmerette for such easy to grade and well fitting patterns! It’s wonderful to see someone’s expression having a dress fit for the first time!

It was the night before a wedding and I needed a dress to wear. I downloaded the turner dress pattern and printed. Went to my stash and got some fabric, cut and sewed this dress in 1-1/2 hours and it was a perfect fit! I received many compliments at the wedding. I will make several of these dresses, very comfy and really flatters my apple shape, 38 G bust. I used a Liverpool knit fabric.
I'm in love with this pattern. I've always had problems with ready-wear clothes as well as sewing for myself (I couldn't master all the alterations I needed). But this pattern fits me like a glove. :) I used size 14, as the skirt is wide enough I didn't need to grade to 16 as I usually would. After first try I decided for few alterations for this dress - shortening the skirt (I'm only 5' 1"), wide shoulder adjustment, full seat and full bicep - the best part is that once you do it you just use the same pattern all over. I've already made three dresses, one skirt and one lace top just from this one pattern. I'm planning even more as it is so easy to sew. Only tricky part is the under-stitching, I'll need more practice with this. But I'm so happy I finally decided to buy this pattern. Great investment!
I had to ask for help to get assistance for the proper size for my mom. My email was answered in record time. They told me exactly how to grade the pattern. The dress was a perfect fit. It's a great pattern!
The Turner was the first Cashmerette pattern I tried to sew and am now a convert, the drafting is great. I'm not quite the usual Cashmerette model as while definitely curvy I don't have the full bust. But this pattern worked for me choosing the correct sizing for my bodice and grading out for the waist/hips. I will be adding several more Turners to my wardrobe over the next few months including a couple of definitely Work Turners and an overlay Turner for going out. Love it.
I have made five Turner dresses so far. I have tweaked the fit to be almost perfect for me. It seems to be similar to the Skater Dress that is in fashion this year. I’m looking forward to the next five makes!
I love this dress pattern! I hacked the sleeves into flutter sleeves and I also added pockets. My waist looks so good and the sizing measurements did not run too big or small; it was perfect to where I don't feel the need to suck it in! My husband said it made my curves look great :) best part is the nursing access hack, I will be making a ton of these!
So nice to not have to worry about fitting-I love the swishy skirt.
Easy to cut out and fun to sew.
I've only made it once, so far but it's already one of my top 3!! I tweaked it by removing the lining and banding the neckline - the only reason it's not 5 star. I received so many compliments and I can't wait to make it again. Very easy and very flattering. I'd highly recommend!
This dress was a dream to sew and it fit beautifully. I raised the neckline by perhaps an inch and a half while also making it into a scoop neck dress. I also added about 1/2" to the shoulder seam--the side that includes the neckline, not the shoulder side of the seam. I have narrow shoulders so this is a common alteration. I absolutely fell in love this pattern and plan on making more dresses and trying more of the Cashmerette line of patterns.
I've made this twice now and it's so easy. I really like how it is easy to change the neckline and to colour block. I used Jenny's tutorial to add pockets to this version. I raised the neck 1", lowered the hem 1.5" and widened the sleeves a bit. I highly recommend this pattern and I am awaiting fabric for several more.
I've made two so far. The first, I unintentionally made as sleeveless (I'd cut out the sleeves, but was apparently dreaming of summer when I sewed it up). That has a double layer bodice from soft stretch knit, with a heavy linen skirt (cut on bias to accommodate the stretch). I made a wide tie from the same linen and it's now a fun dress for work during summer. Sleeveless loots good with this dress. And it was no worries about the missing sleeves because it was so quick and easy that I had time the next weekend to make another for the intended purpose - a trip to Boston for a niece's graduation. For that, I made the the bodice from a stretch lace, lined only in the trunk, not sleeves. I paired it with a dark, solid double knit for the skirt. It was the perfect outfit, as it traveled nicely, looked appropriate for the occasion, and was super comfortable. I also REALLY like pairing this skirt with the Upton top, which is also a huge favorite of mine!
I love this dress! It's a simple make but very stylish. I made a size 16 C/D cup. It's like wearing secret pajamas. The instructions are very clear and the pieces matched well. I'm planning a few more of these in different fabrics for occasions and casual
I’m not an experienced sewer and made my first Turner in 4 hours with no problems. I made the 20 G and it fitted well with no adjustments (which to be honest I don’t really know how to do). I’m delighted with the result and see many more Turners in my future!
The Turner dress is the 2nd item I have made in knit fabric...ever! The instructions were so easy to follow, the pattern is well drafted and I can't believe how happy I am with my finished dress! It is so floaty and feminine. I can't wait to make more
This is my absolute favourite pattern. So quick and easy to make, fits perfectly and is so comfy. Can’t wait to make more!
I needed a classic, but not too dressy black dress for the fall/winter.
This pattern was wonderful! It was my first return to sewing after many years and I had NEVER sewn with a knit. I chose a black Liverpool knit fabric hoping it would be less wiggly than lighter knits.
The pattern was very easy to follow and I learned some new techniques along the way. The dress came out beautifully and I now have a classic black dress I feel confident in!
I will absolutely be making this pattern again.
This pattern was simple to construct, required almost no modification, and went together quickly. The result was a very comfortable and flattering summer dress. I’m already planning to make more for the fall season!
Awesome first project, and the dress turned out phenomenally. Now working on making an Appleton to try that style out too. Customer service has been top notch too- happy to be on this journey with this company.
I actually bought this for myself since the nursing expansion only comes in the larger sizes. I discovered I work better with the smaller size range so I freehand duplicated the expansion style and have been quite happily making tons of concord nursing tees and lengthening it to make dresses. My friend was visiting the area and I asked if she was interested in sewing since I had the pattern in her size. It turns out she doesn’t have time but none of her clothes fit properly. I took her measurements, got fabric on my way home and had one sewn for her without staying up late before she left for the airport the next morning! Thank you cashmerette for such easy to grade and well fitting patterns! It’s wonderful to see someone’s expression having a dress fit for the first time!
