I am so excited! This pattern is definitely in my top two of favorite vintage patterns.
The jumper has darts in the front and back bodice and there are four buttons up the back. I personally prefer bias binding to facing, so I opted to use the same fabric for the bias that I used on the shirt.
The cotton fabric for the jumper was purchased at JoAnns. I love the variations of color and dots in it. I am very partial to polka dots, so this fabric also is in the top running for favorites.
I also love the fit of this pattern. I did not have to make any alterations at all, a perfect size 2.
One of the things that I love most about this pattern is the shirt. I love the vintage shirt patterns and I am always keeping an eye out for them. But I sometimes miss the shirts that are included in other patterns. Huge bonus for me this time around.
I love, love, love the sleeves on this shirt. It folds up, then is sewn in to make a cuff. It fits wonderful and I will definitely be making more of this shirt pattern.
I used a cotton polka dot fabric purchased at JoAnns.
I used a smaller polka dot cotton fabric for the bloomers.
