 Hey guys, Lindsay here to review the new LeraLyn pattern from Blank Slate Patterns. Melissa has created a wonderfully simple shift dress here that is really for any body and any sewing level. The dress features a center front seam with a modest v-neck, no center back seam, deep welt pockets at the hip, and a molded cap sleeve. There is also a maxi version with long side slits and a hood, which looks super cute out of lightweight gauze or linen. This is a great pattern that's a breeze to sew up. If welt pockets make you nervous, don't worry. Melissa has you covered. She makes them seem much less intimidating, although you do have to cut into the front of your dress, which will always be nerve-wracking to me no matter how many times I do them, but her instructions are clear and I just love how deep they are. I have made it here out of a linen rayon blend from Joanne's fabrics. The fabric and the shape of the dress really make it one of the most comfortable things I own. Blank Slate Patterns, as its name implies, are patterns that are perfect for embellishing, hacking, and truly making it your own. For my next versions, I'm considering making one with a center front exposed zipper, another with exposed leather bias tape at the neckline, center front seam, and welt pockets, and I really want to give the hooded version a try with the right fabric. Be sure to join the Blank Slate Patterns Group on Facebook to see tons of tester picks and get even more inspiration. I have linked the pattern down below, so feel free to check it out, purchase it, download it, and make your first Larellen dress. Thanks so much for watching. See y'all next time. Bye.
