Notes	Very impressed with the pattern drafting on this one, when I pinned the paper pattern together to work it out the shape looked really good. Made from a green linen fabric, no stretch. Having previously worked out the construction by pinning up the paper pieces, this was very easy to assemble and quite quick to sew - although a bit of patience needed to ensure the front section seams were very accurate as these are a feature of this style. I added a hem band to finish this off, the pattern length finished about 5cm above the knee so I wanted to add just a bit of length. No other modifications to the pattern. This is a great fit, comfortable and a very practical style, I definitely plan to make this dress again.
