  1. April –

    Beautiful pattern

  2. Delores –

  3. Barbara –

    ITC patterns fit my style better than any other brand.

  4. Debbie –

    Sew beautiful!!!

  5. Diane –

    Love this pattern! So elegant and chic-with a dash of whimsy!
    I am going to make one for our granddaughter next-she loved ❤️ mine! 😊. (She’s 31)
    So happy plus sizing is included- as my hips are 19 1/2 larger than my waist-therefore making it so much easier to adjust the pattern for my weird body! 😎
    As usual, Kennis’ directions and pattern drafting reign supreme here-my favorite pattern company!

How to choose your size

  1. Determine your cup size—subtract the circumference of your over bust from the circumference of the fullest part of your bust. If the rounded difference is 1″ (2.5 cm), use A cup; 2″ (5 cm), use B cup; 3″ (7.5 cm), use C cup; 4″ (10 cm), use D cup; 5″ (12.5 cm), use DD cup.
  2. After determining the cup size, compare your bust circumference (fullest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Using the corresponding row for your cup, choose the size that best fits your bust. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  3. Compare your waist circumference (narrowest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that best fits your waist. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  4. Compare your hip circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your hip best. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  5. It’s OK to use different sizes for the bust, waist and hip. The instructions for blending sizes are included in the pattern.
  6. If you are taller or shorter than 5’6” (168 cm), you should consider lengthening or shortening the garment. The instructions for lengthening or shortening are included in the pattern.
