The Everyday Chic Dress is a softly fitting A-line shape with a boat neck and V opening neckline. It has deep integrated pockets and generous raglan sleeves. The optional smocked panels at the back and under the bust pull it in for flattering and comfortable fit. The front cover version is shown without smocking.

The workshop runs from 10am – 5pm and includes the cost of the pattern and a light lunch. Tara will be your teacher for the day – she has a relaxed, cheerful manner and plenty of experience teaching everyone from beginners to the more capable. She will be able to help you with every element, from taking your own measurements to creating the perfect neckline trim.

You do not need to bring anything except your own fabric and thread. There are sewing machines, scissors and everything you could need on hand at the studio, however, if you prefer to sew on your own machine, that is fine too. You are very welcome to bring your own.
