The Sailor dress is all grown up and we love it. Mary White is the Skipper's big sister.

by Carolyn N.K. Denham, Merchant & Mills, England

Loose fitting dress or top with front and back pleats, side in-seam pockets (dress only), breast pocket and a sailor collar. Perfect attire for any board walk.

All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless otherwise stated.

Skill level – intermediate.

Chose from two size ranges, UK 6 – 18 or 18-28.

This is a multi-size PDF pattern including sizes UK 6 – 18 or UK 20-28. This PDF gives you the tiled (A4 pages, compatible with US printer paper) and A0 (36 x 48" pages) versions as well as a separate PDF file for instructions. We will email your PDFs files to you from info@lakesmakerie.org (check your junk mail if you don't see them)

If you would like Lakes Makerie in-house AO printing ($3/page), select the desired variant below. If you opt for our in-house printing we will ship your patterns or hold them at the shop per your order.

We would suggest using the following fabrics – medium weight dress weight wovens, cotton sanded twill, 6-9oz denim, linen, corduroy, tencel, tencel/linen. The more structured the fabric the more sculptural your top/dress will look. If you are using a heavier fabric you may want to use a lighter weight cloth for the under collar and front facings, to reduce bulk.

You will need 2 x 14 – 15mm buttons
