Moira: Grey Dress

Just a simple a-line dress—with a surprise in back!

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/moira-grey-dress • Posted by emilyrose

Moira is a simple a-line dress from a pattern I draped and drafted myself (see attachment for a picture of it), with a basic darted skirt... except for the row of pleats in the back, which give her a bit of kick and swirl! The collar is sewn down with home-made bias tape (boy was that fun to iron, just shoot me now!), and the back zips up. Yus, I am super proud. My first utterly hand-made pattern, a success!
