Lilja Dress, Pinafore, & Blouse Pattern
The Lilja is a charmingly unique wrap garment that comes in three different variations: an ankle-length dress, a pinafore dress and a blouse. You can sew any of the variations either sleeveless or with bohemian, ¾-length puff sleeves. You can also choose either a round or square neckline, or a combination of both. The round neckline can be finished with either a facing or a binding with back vent and ties. This versatile garment is both simple to sew and easy to wear.
Sizes: EUR 32-56 | US 0-24 | UK 4-28
Recommended Fabrics:
For any variation, choose a light or medium weight non-stretch fabric. You can opt for a low drape shirting, such as poplin or light seersucker, or choose a fabric with drape, for example crepe or rayon challis.
If your variation features bindings, you can cut them from your fabric, or use a premade binding.
