A line dress



Book:  Girl on the Beach, style F
Size:  100 cm
Fabric:  Textured cotton

The original design does not include pockets but were requested by the wearer.

This was intended for the younger sister but was too big.  I finally measured them both yesterday and 1 is 101 cm and the other is 88 cm.  I am torn between what sizes to draft for the girls because 100cm and 90 cm fit perfectly right now but I want them to fit for several months.  I am drafting a combo of 110/100 and 100/90.  I am also taking note of which books run larger.

Linen pants



Book:  Girl on the Beach, style R
Size:  110 cm
Fabric:  Linen
I added 1" to the length of the hem.  The crotch length seems too long, I think taking off at least 1/2" at top would allow for better fit.  These pants are fuller than I expected so next time I may also pinch out 1/2" down the front and back of the pants as well as add front pockets.  It may be that they are just all around too big and will look better next summer (that is if I get the cherry juice stains out).


The 3 tiered pants were made last year.  More about them here.
