I enjoyed making this - some instructions were slightly opaque but on the whole great!

Not very much for quite a lot of money.

Hi there So sorry to read you are not so fussed with this pattern - we love it here. Not sure if you watched the sewing bee and the two fantastic dresses that were made with it in the first episode? The templates are minimal to make this fabulous dress. You will mark out the other pattern pieces directly onto your fabric - just choose the cutting plan depending on your size and the width of the fabric you use. This is a really different sewing method, and it takes a little while to get your head around. I recommend you read everything before diving in and it should make much more sense. The instructions are pretty comprehensive. I do hope you give it a go - it is very clever and ingenious, and the designer has put so much time and thought into making something special, and as zero-waste as possible. If you still need some advice then do come back to us. I have made this dress myself should be able to help. I hope you enjoy the process, good luck! Very best wishes, Anna

It was easy to put together although the initial layout looked complicated. I’d certainly make it again.
