Fabric Recommendations
The dress is designed for stretch fabrics such as ponte or jersey. If you use a fabric that is not stretchable you should add a zipper on the side seam to be able to put on and off.

The dress is fairly easy to sew and you can also download detailed sewing instructions.

Sewing with Knits
Sewing with knits can be tricky at the beginning, but once you learn the basics it is even easier than sewing with woven fabrics. Below are some tips:
- Cut with a Rotary Cutter.
- Use Ball Point Jersey Machine Needles
- A Serger will make your job a lot easier, but if you don’t have a serger you can use a zig zag stitch.
- Use a Stretch Twin Needles for the finishing (hem and sleeves)
This is a beautiful dress, I hope you like it!
