Simplicity Pattern 2147-Mini Dress

Mini Dress FrontMini Dress In Library

Mini Dress SideI'm so excited!  Why?  Because Simplicity Mini Dress Pattern 2147 won for the most votes!  Not that I would have complained if any of the other patterns won, they were all great, but I wasn't really looking forward to possibly modeling the toddler duck costume.  (I would have done it though, because that's the kind of person I am.)  Instead, I have a pretty new dress that I absolutely love!  Not only did mini dress B come out super cute, but, as advertised, it's great pattern for beginners.  A+ for ease and A+ for fashion.  It doesn't get any better than that.

So as promised, we broke down pattern 2147 and created an awesome video tutorial that goes over each step so you can also make this cute dress or tunic for yourself.  We hope by learning with us, you'll be more confident in doing other Simplicity patterns and before you know it, you'll be skipping (or elegantly walking) down the street and say, "oh you think this is cute?  Yeah, I made it."  I think that's the best part in sewing, trying to figure out humble ways to brag.

You can easily purchase this pattern from Simplicity or your local fabric store and still get an awesome outfit out of the deal.  So let's get to creating!

    I absolutely LOVE this dress! I can definitely see myself wearing it year round! I can wear it with heels,espadrills,or cute sandals during the summer or with leggings or tights and boots in the winter! I think it’s perfect!
