  • Very nice pattern! The instructions were pretty easy to follow and it didn’t take too long to make. I decided to do a different arrangement of buttons because I thought it would fit the garment better.

  • Great pattern, clear instructions. I also deeply appreciate instructions that include how to add lining. I'm a confident intermediate seamstress, still learning though. Sizing, for reference I'm a 36/32/41 and I thought I may be a large, but I'm really glad I cut the XL because I felt it was VERY snug and I could've gone up a size.

  • As my first project as a beginner sewer, the guides were incredibly clear, and the patterns easy to use and to work from, overall I absolutely loved making it! My only key concern was that it was advertised as going from XXS to 3XL, which was the main reason why I bought it, thinking it would fit my body shape without issue (as someone who fluctuates between M, L and XL sizes). Make sure you check your measurements before buying because following the guide, I went with the largest size and turns out it's still a tad too small xD My bad on that I'll make sure to check next time! Overall it's still a great pattern and I would really recommend it, especially if you find your measurements fit the guide, absolutely go for it!
