Zadie Dress Pattern

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Zadie dress pattern by Tilly and the Buttons is a dream! Designed for stretch knit fabrics, you can sew it on a regular sewing machine (no overlocker or serger needed) – hooray! Throw on your Zadie dress for comfort and style at work or play. The dress has striking diagonal seams, concealing lovely (and practical!) in-seam pockets. The fitted bodice has a flattering empire waistline and round neckline finished with a neckband. It flares out into a feminine, knee-length semi-pleated skirt that’s great for swishing. Choose from cap, three-quarter or full length raglan sleeves. If you’re a fan of the Coco or Agnes patterns, this project will take your knit fabric sewing skills to the next level. Like all Tilly and the Buttons sewing patterns, Zadie includes easy-to-follow instructions with photos showing you how to sew each step – making it easy for you to create gorgeous clothes you can be proud to say you made yourself.
