Super easy and fast!

This is a great staple for any closet. Can be worn with or without an under shirt. Super easy and cute as a top or a dress and even a maxi. This is my go to for quick gifts for birthday paties.

So quick and beautiful!

I love how quick I was able to make this! After making 3 of another pattern that was very time consuming, this was a breath of fresh air! It sewed up very quick, the instructions were very clear and easy to follow, and the end result is adorable!

easy and beautiful

I had the baby version but she’s starting to outgrow it and someone with an older girl needed a dress. Of course this was the go to. You can do so much with such a simple dress. It’s so easy and comes together very quickly.

great for beginners

This was the first CKC pattern I tried putting together. All in all I am very pleased with my end results I learned a lot. I’m already starting to look on doing two other patterns.

Perfect!

I had a customer send me a picture of a dress she wanted and this pattern was EXACTLY what I needed. I love that I don’t have to print pattern pieces out and it’s just measuring squares to piece together. Extremely easy to follow and turned out beautifully. I adjusted the bodice to make it longer but even that was beyond simple to do!
