I am so excited about this.....Sunflower Seams now has JUNIORS patterns!! And the first one is the new Buttercup cross over bodice dress/top.
This is such a lovely and classy design. This teenager is just growing out of children clothing (and has forbidden me from sewing anything woven for her), and some of the adult clothing is a little weird on her tiny frame. Enter juniors sizing!
This design is so so pretty, not only does the bodice cross in the front, but also in the back, making a lovely back detail.
The skirt is not a full circle skirt like the children sizing, but rather a more reserved half circle skirt, making a flattering silhouette. This pattern includes options on sleeve and skirt length, to bring it from cold weather into the summer months. If your teen (or yourself!) is not super comfortable with a lower neckline, I also wrote a blog post on how to add a modesty panel. You can check it out here.
The fabric for this project is cotton lycra from knitfabric.com.
I am so happy to have accessible patterns in this teenager size range!
Happy Sewing!
