Honeycomb Shirt and Dress - PDF sewing pattern

The lovely beginner-friendly Honeycomb Shirt Dress pattern helps to make a beautiful and feminine design featuring a stand-up collar, front button placket, two different versions and lots of options to choose from. Also you can opt for the shirt that comes with a nice gathered peplum or the dress, with a midi length that you can alter to your desire.

There are as well several sleeve options: regular long sleeves and long sleeves with bows for the colder months; and then short sleeves and a sleeveless alternative, perfect for Spring and Summer. Apart from all this, the Honeycomb Shirt Dress sewing pattern comes with side panels and straps that make the fitting part much easier. The design is naturally loose but with the straps you can adjust it to get a closer fit.

To sum up, with lots of detailed instructions, technical drawings and tips to get the best results, the Honeycomb Shirt Dress pattern will become a staple, with a twist, in your handmade wardrobe.

In addition, you can also learn how to make the sewing pattern on our YouTube Channel.
