Using this pattern was a lot of fun! This was my first time using the method of printing at home on A4 paper. Your instructions and layout made it such a smooth process for me. All the instructions were clear and easy to track with. I tend to operate best when things explained very clearly in black and white and I had no issues carrying on through this pattern! Through this process, I learned a couple new things I hadn’t done before. The box pleats were my favorite! It was really enjoyable overall!

@loganmacksews

Truly am obsessed with this pattern! I’ve never been disappointed by a Madswick pattern and still am blown away by the attention to detail every time! So many pattern designers are making the same things and Madswick always is unique! I felt so intimidated by the pleats and it was actually so much easier than I thought!! Truly such a good pattern The neckline finish is chefs kiss! Not having to do bias binding is lovely and looks so clean

@Grayce.andersen

I found this pattern to be so fun to make! I loved that there were many techniques used (box pleats, yolks, gathers) but everything felt manageable and rewarding to sew. Don’t let those intimidate you, the instructions walk you through every step of the way❤️
