How to make a Rockabilly Dress...with free pattern!

[@roninelenion4805]

I got my little sister obsessed with historical fashion, and she's asked me to make her a 50s style dress for prom. Thanks for the pattern and the tutorial. She's going to be so happy.

[@ZennaDonna]

That is awesome! Glad to help :)

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

Great instructor, thank you. I’m owning my cold weather sewing.

[@ZennaDonna]

Have fun!

[@knallbunterschluepfer2520]

I am excited to try this out 🤩 have just printed it and going to start tonight 💪

[@ZennaDonna]

Awesome, hope it goes well!

[@sonyagower1720]

Thank you for the Pattern. I love this style dress.

[@ZennaDonna]

Thank you Sonya :)

[@MabruBlack]

That tip for gathering the skirt is genius! I'm always fighting to get it even and that looks like the perfect solution... my bust unfortunately is too large for the pattern size but your tips are so awesome 😊

[@charlisabeth]

This is a great pattern! I especially like the neckline. My only worry might be the fit, because I am quite curvy, but I am sure I'll make it work. :)

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

Oh, crap! Metric! Such patience. Impressed, lol

[@reneemeyers6251]

I really like how you double stitch

[@citrineraven8423]

I love this! I'm just learning how to sew and do this kind of stuff and I love your videos! Thanks so much! I was wondering if you can do a video on how to take out or alter a fit and flare style dress with a zipper back?

[@RK-rz9ep]

Your dress is very kawaii.I love it.Thank you!

[@LEE-kq9tq]

[@jeannieleasa1579]

[@yagnnachacon]

[@stephaniecardebrandt7599]

This is amazing! Thank u so much for this video! 😍

[@ZennaDonna]

+stephanie cardebrandt Thank you :)

[@lah1667]

I only have double straight stitch with on my machine, not overlock. Can I French seam instead?? Thanks for a nice video.

[@ZennaDonna]

Thank you for the question. Yes you can french seam or zig zag stitch the seams.

[@lah1667]

@@ZennaDonna thank you... I will try to make this 😊

[@franciscasacleux503]

hello, thank you for the video and the pattern, will try soon with my red polka dot cotton fabric. One question, can I also put the lining for the skirt? Which type of lining fabric can I use? Again, thank you.

[@juleswarner6123]

Great video. Thank you!

[@singerkredmond]

can you do a vid on how to size up the pattern. I''m a size 30 and love these style of dresses. I just can't find patterns in my size.

[@jmpintx]

Have you had any success at sizing this up? I'm a 24/26 and I'm gonna need to size up. if you haven't when I figure this up I can write back on how to do this.

[@sameoldsonganddance]

Genepher phariss I’m waiting too

[@tkmmd1220]

@@jmpintx I am in the same boat am a size 24/26 and would love to know how to up size

[@Hannahcheg]

I've sewn some but not a ton, do you think that this would be easy enough for a beginner? I watched the tutorial and I feel pretty confident, but I might be overly confident haha. But I think It might be fun to make my own dress

[@heathercontois4501]

I hope you made this. It's an easy pattern and she give good instruction to follow.

[@arletteleathem8742]

Love this

[@oreoandme2978]

Great job!

[@MichellesHandmadeCreations]

Did you get the size 16 pattern made? Would LOVE to get that to make as I follow along with your video.

[@realpinkmonkey]

Hi. This is so cute. I've seen a few videos where they do the "lining"(?) part, could u please tell me the purpose of that? Is it to have a nice finish to the neck line and arm holes? Thank you

[@therainbowmushroom13]

thank youuuuuuu i needed this

[@morgannaavalon7686]

Could I ask please what bust and dress size this comes out as roughly, as im a large bust, so usually need to size up in clothing for that..just trying to figure out if 2.5 would be enough

[@ZennaDonna]

This dress pattern is a size 12, so if you were going to size, you will need an extra meter of fabric.

[@clauditasan1211]

No entiendo lo que dice pero se ve que explica muy bien 😊

[@sarahsales6069]

Thank you so much

[@jaydp18]

is the 2.5meters for the whole thing including skirt? xx

[@ZennaDonna]

+jaydp18 Yep it sure is. Thanks for the question :)

[@jaydp18]

+Zenna Donna you make it look so easy ive got all my bits together for my first dress ... wish me luck x

[@ZennaDonna]

+jaydp18 Good luck! Let me know how it goes.

[@sonialyndon5754]

Hi I can not find pattern for the top xx

[@justcallmeangel2805]

Dont you use a pattern for the skirt part?

[@lah1667]

No

[@holdpoliceaccountable]

Anyone size this up?

[@toastyfc7984]
