My review of the lovely Elodie Wrap Dress by Closet Core Patterns, including how I applied binding to the seams and added side seam pockets. Also links to posts detailing how I fit the dress and increased the skirt wrap coverage.

My review of the Simplicity 4428 cardigan, with its waterfall front, cute peplum and slight batwing sleeves. It comes together so quickly and easily with only 3 pattern pieces.

My review of the Avid Seamstress Culottes, including details on what I did to improve the fit for me.
