The first time I made this pattern I made it for my sister, who’s next gift request was a jumpsuit. After completing hers I knew I wanted one for myself (I tried it on before gift wrapping it). I used this double knit fabric to achieve this look. I accessorized with a couple of easy DIY jewelry pieces, some button earrings and fabric covered bangles. I am a hoarder when it comes to scrap fabric, but my hoarding is justified because I make beautiful jewelry pieces from my scraps. If you’d like to see a tutorial on these piece let know. Alright, let’s jump into the review.

Pattern Sizing: I cut the 6
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I liked the minimal amount of pattern pieces

Fantastic job on this one. I would love a tutorial on this one. Where do you purchase the McCall’s patterns?

Thank you! I purchased the pattern from Joann’s. If I make another one of these, I’ll be sure to do a tutorial. Thank you for the suggestion.
