CHILD’S DRESS. This lovely child’s dress features a faux-pinafore look, but the dress is all in one piece! This dress has a pleated yoke with decorative button trimming up the front. The dress fastens up the back with buttons, and has ties inserted into the sideseam that tie to make a bow at back. The rectangular skirt can be decorated with gathered trimmings. This dress can be made with a short, puffed sleeve, a short, fitted sleeve, or a long, gathered sleeve.


ONLY ONE SIZE- Size 2- Breast 21"

At this time the pattern is only available in size 2. The sizing is unchanged from the period pattern source and may require some alterations for modern sizing.



- Difficulty -

Intermediate difficulty. Instructions are original to the time period and are somewhat minimal compared with today. Should be familiar with garment construction and be adventurous to try vintage techniques.



- Yardage Requirements-
Please see images. Allow extra for matching patterns, fabrics with a nap, or directional prints.


-Additional Notes-

Because this was based on a period original, a mock up is HIGHLY SUGGESTED. Test construction and fit on your unique figure before cutting into your fashion fabric.
The pattern shapes are unchanged from the period source, in order to keep historical accuracy. Some alterations may be required, as the pattern has not been tested for fit, construction, or truing. Please make a mock up first and save your pretty fabric for the final garment!



--HOW TO PRINT AND USE THIS E-PATTERN--
This includes both a tiled, print at home pattern, and an A0 file to send away to a print shop like Pattern Printing Co.

YOU WILL NEED ADOBE READER, A FREE PDF READER PROGRAM, IN ORDER TO OPEN AND PRINT THIS PATTERN.


This pattern is formatted for USA Letter Size and A4 sized paper. You will need to print this pattern to 100% scale. Open the "READ-ME-FIRST" File for instructions on printing and piecing your pattern.

This pattern is tiled into letter sized paper. This pattern file is formatted to fit on both sizes of paper, and there will be varying thicknesses of white border, which will be cut off, according to pattern instructions.

You will print these documents on your home printer, cut, and tape them together, to form a larger pattern layout. Then you cut and use your pattern just as you would a normal home sewing pattern.

This pattern comes in a ZIP folder that must be decompressed to use, and uses a LOT of paper.



About Wearing History Resto-Vival™ Patterns



Resto-Vival™ Patterns are original historic patterns that have been restored and revived. Original patterns are usually available only in single sizes, precut from tissue paper and totally unprinted, with details like grainlines and darts indicated only by small perforations. Resto-Vival™ patterns are printed on sturdy bond paper instead of tissue and clearly marked with drawn and labeled markings. These markings aid the modern sewer in understanding the markings of the original pattern and the construction of the garment. Resto-Vival™ patterns follow the period shapes of the original patterns, maintaining the historical accuracy of the completed garment. Original period instructions are included. These instructions are text only (unless otherwise noted) and fairly minimal, especially compared to instructions for modern patterns. At least an intermediate knowledge of dressmaking and a good familiarity with pattern construction is suggested. You may choose to have a modern or period sewing book handy to help with basic construction methods that the pattern instructions do not cover in detail. Also, fitting a muslin mockup is strongly recommended, as all garments were meant to be worn over period foundation garments or corsetry.

Beautiful Crossbody Bag
Color: Pure Black, Color: Pure Black
Two separate zippered compartments, one with a zippered compartment inside and one with two equal size pockets. Two external zippered compartments. The zippers and all hardware is black so no brassy gold or shiny silver on this classy bag. Beautiful leather at an affordable price. It’s easy to find the right strap length to suite the size of your body and arm length, easy to use and more than a little attractive. A long rectangular wallet fits and no matter what size phone you have, it fits. Eyeglass case, no problem. Comes with a black tassel which I replaced with the initial (sold separately).I love it and highly recommend it.

Nice Purse
Color: Pure Black
I love this purse! It has lots of room and pockets for its size. I appreciate that the zipper and accents are black and not gold or silver as it just seems to blend in nicely. I also like that my phone fits perfectly in the front pocket for easy access.

Great Travel Purse
Color: Pure Black
This purse is a great size and shape with excellent pockets. I use it mostly for travel because it’s not too heavy. If I could change anything it would be the color of the lining to a lighter or brighter color and to tack the lining down more securely. Otherwise it’s a very good purse.
