The Penny Vintage Dress



Hi! Today I am sharing with you the Penny Vintage dress which is one the amazing patterns from the BundleUP - Girls edition!

The BundleUP includes 11 new patterns you can choose from to make your own bundle at a great price. Read more about it here! 

I was given the chance to try the Penny Vintage pattern, which includes in fact two patterns - a dress and a spring coat! I have opted to sew up the dress and I am in love...







I have already had the chance to use one of Ellie Inspired patterns - the Sugar Plum sweater - and I knew I wouldn't be disappointed with this one. The pattern fits perfectly and the instructions are wonderful. Laura guides you through all the steps with lots of detail. It feels like having a sewing lesson.

I have used a neoprene like knit for this dress. It is very light-weighted so the skirt could be gathered easily. The ruffled collar was left with a raw edge because it would look too bulky otherwise...
I had this fabric on my stash for some time and I was saving it to make something for me, but I couldn't resist using it for this dress. I think it was the perfect choice. She loved it! 

I had to layer it with a sweatshirt (from Zara) since it is too cold these days for a sleeveless dress, so you can use this pattern all year around.

This pattern comes in sizes 1 to 16! The dress can be made with a knit bodice and a drop-waist skirt in either knit or woven. It features an optional ruffled collar. 

The coat is also super cute! It is fully lined and it features a peter pan collar, gathered sleeve caps and a gathered skirt with ruffle at hem.







I have had the chance to sew two more patterns from this bundle and I will showing them this weekend. So stay tuned! They are amazing!

Make sure to check all the great patterns on the BundleUP! It ends this Monday, Feb. 2nd! Hurry up!
