Since Momma Mia hasn’t gotten a new dress in at least 5 days, it was time. I gave in! I had just gotten this awesome Liverpool striped print from Stitchin’ Pretties and knew she would love it. Royal Blue and black is really a great combo and I have sewn up a lot of it.
Sheila is from the 5oo4 basics line. The thought behind the basic line is that the patterns are easy to make without tons of options. Kinda like a skill builder sewing pattern. This makes the patterns perfect for new sewists as well as pattern hackers!
The Sheila Everyday Tee and Dress includes:
- Regular front bodice OR FBA (Full Bust Adjustment) front bodice
- Two Hem lengths: top or dress
- Three Sleeve Lengths: short, 3/4 or long
- Sizes XXS β 5XL

OK fabric chat:
June – Black and Blue Liverpool from Stitchin’ Pretties. This fabric is a great weight which was really easy to sew. I love sewing with Liverpool because it is slightly structured so it stitches neatly without too much work. Can you believe that Stitchin’ Pretties is still offering their buy 2 consecutive yards and Laura will send you a bonus 1 yard cut of something? She usually picks something that matches. π There is no limit on the free yardage either. Buy 10 yards (in at least 2 yard cuts) get a bonus of 5 yards!
Black was a leftover scrap. It is also Liverpool.
This is the dress length with 3/4 sleeves. It is size 1x graded to the 2x and then back in to a 1x. This dress is fun to wear solo, easy to wear with leggings, or you could add a belt for a new look. Such a versatile garment that is easy to wear and uber comfy.
So letβs run through the options first.
- Regular front bodice OR FBA (Full Bust Adjustment) front bodice
- Two Hem lengths: top or dress
- Three Sleeve Lengths: short, 3/4 or long
- Sizes XXS β 5XL
