My TNT Pattern Challenge: Dresses

Saturday, February 08, 2014

Next up for my TNT pattern challenge, let's talk dresses.  With dresses it's reaaal easy to get sucked in to a complicated dress pattern because it's sooo pretty and yes I wanna feel like Cinderella!!  But that's a problem, the pattern is so complicated there is no way you ever want to make it again, even if it did fit perfect, it's too dang fussy!  So the patterns I chose should all be easy makes.  2-3 hours tops once all the fit issues are taken care of.  (I've already mastered one of these that I will share later next week).


CATEGORY: DRESSES


FAUX WRAP DRESS: NEW LOOK 6097

I've had this pattern in my stash for a while now.  The fact that it's just for knits and someone mentioned it as their favorite TNT pattern made me dig it out.    If your on the hunt for a free pattern check this out!  



SKATER DRESS: KITSCHY COO

My favorite style of dress.  I've made it twice now and it's a definite TNT.





SHEATH DRESS: MCCALL'S 2401

I debated on this last pattern.  I've realized I like dresses but I love them even better when they are made of comfy knit and contain NO zippers.   But for good measure I included a woven sheath dress.  Actually I just read the pattern envelope and double knits can be used as well, sweeet!  I like this pattern because of the different neckline options.

Have you made any of these patterns? I mean hasn't everyone made the Lady Skater? I know why now! It's awesome.
