Product Reviews
love the petar pan collar and pleated bodice
This dress is really cute!! I love the cap sleeves and Peter Pan collar. This was my first time ever making pleats in a bodice. It was really easy to do with the directions in the pattern.
One of My Favorites
This dress is so versatile and has really expanded all of my sewing skills working with pleating. The directions are easy to follow and I loved the results. This is one of my favorite CKC patterns I have ever made.
My favorite CKC pattern!
The instructions are easy to follow and the end result is beautiful! The back of the bodice can be finished with buttons or snaps, and I love the pleated front option. For a quick sew I leave off the collar, pleats, and sleeves. Thanks CKC for an awesome pattern I can dress up or make casual!

I have not had a chance to make this yet, but I really like the ideal of having so many different ways to change the pattern up.
