See below for a review of this pattern:
'A darling dress straight out of the 1930s! I made this pattern twice out of two different cotton fabrics: a yellow large floral cotton voile with the shawl collar, and a white cotton eyelet with the ruffled collar. Both versions made up very well. The instructions were detailed and easy to follow.'
