A beautiful dress

Love the pattern. I have made 1 dress and received many compliments. It’s my first dress I have sewn. (beginner sewer)

I just finished sewing the two tiered version out of medium weight (5.3 oz) linen. I think it is a flattering style for any figure type. The sewing intructions were easy to follow. This was my second PDF pattern and it was easy to print and tape together. I plan to lengthen the sleeves and make another dress for winter.

This is the first pattern I’ve purchase from Itch to Stitch and I am very happy with it. The fit was very good and I was especially pleased with how well the sleeves fit me which I usually have problems with. I did need to lengthen the bodice about 1″ which is a normal alteration for me. However, even though I am 5’9″ tall, I shortened each tier by 1″ which was perfect for mid calf length. I wanted the two lower tiers to be fuller so I cut the pattern piece to encompass the full width of my 45″ wide seersucker fabric. I love it and it was so fun to make!

What a gorgeous dress! I’ve only been sewing for two months but because the instructions were very clear and easy to understand, I had no problems putting this together despite being a beginner. I am absolutely thrilled with the finished product and know I will be making many more versions of the dress

Another smashing hit! I just finished sewing the Comillas dress and absolutely love it! I was twirling around so happy with my make 🙂
Thank you for making such high quality patterns where I KNOW the final garment will look exactly like the photo. I sew a lot but the garments I wear the most are all Itch to Stitch patterns. I would like to give five stars for the printing layout as well – I chose to print the letter size sheets since I was so anxious to sew as quickly as possible. Unlike other pattern companies I didn’t have to print 60+ pages (I am looking at you Simplicity) – your layout was so thoughtful that I only printed 21 pages for a 3 tier dress.
This is probably my favorite pattern after the Mountain View jeans (I am in the process of sewing my fifth pair of those).
I added 1cm length to the bodice so the elastic casing is under my bra (super comfortable that way). And while it was a bit fussy the 3 elastic casings are cute and extremely comfortable to wear. I made the 3 tier skirt but adjusted the ruffle lengths a bit since my fabric had gorgeous embroidery that I didn’t want to cut off.
I plan to sew several more Comillas dresses!

Great pattern, great fit, thank you!

I love my Comillas! This pattern is fabulous, came together perfectly and fits beautifully.

I loved making this dress! The instructions were well written. The dress itself went together beautifully and surprisingly quickly . I chose to make the two tiered version in a linen cotton blend. I used an embroidery function on my sewing machine on the front bodice plackets and on the lower aspect of the two tiers to personalize the dress and I love the way this looks. I’ve already got plans to make it again in a print this time. Another great design Kennis!
Bridgit –
Love this! Very flattering so far with very little altering needed except my usual FBA
Kathleen –
Such a lovely design! And Kennis creates such excellent instructions.

I was very good and made a test garment of the 2 tiered version with some polyester crepe fabric, and it went really well. Excellent fit, and really looked good, and whilst the fabric would not be my 1st choice, i will be taking it on holiday as it is a very wearable toille.
For my 2nd attempt, I am making the full 3 tiers, and using a viscose fabric, and have lengthened the top bodice by 1″, just for a tiny bit more ease, I am 5ft 71/2, so taller than the pattern is drafted for, other than that, I am making the pattern as is.
I absolutely love the 3 channels of elastic around the bodice, and whilst its fiddly, its does really look good, and is so comfortable, i did toy with the idea of using 1 wide strip of elastic, but think it would be less comfortable than the 6mm elastic strands.
really happy with this pattern, and can see myself using it over and over again,
Susan –
Absolutely thrilled with this pattern. I made my dress in a batik rayon in a size 14 with the full bust option after making a muslin in both the full bust and regular bust options bc my measurements are right at the dividing line between full and regular bust sizing. The step by step instructions are excellent, and the result is a very attractive dress for women of any age. I will make this dress again. It didn’t take long to sew either. Happy customer. 🙂

Nice dress with a nice fit

I made this over the weekend, wore it today and got so many comments! I used a light weight block printed cotton fabric. I chose the shorter version and it fit so beautifully I didn’t have to make a single alteration. I am already planning to make another. I actually love that the ruffles are subtle (low volume); I was afraid it would look a little too juvenile but they are just perfect.
