 really been on a journey with this pattern. Am I right? This is my second although technically second in the half new and improved, nonetheless, version of simplicity 2147. You might remember my first version of this dress and then the subsequent half of a make. It was that pink one that I made out of the floral linen. Remember the bodice was ill-fitting mostly in the arm side area. So I took the bodice off, made a whole bunch of adjustments with the help of my ditto form and then sewed the, well not even really the bodice, sewed the yoke back on to the skirt version which is why it's kind of like a half version that I made. The fit of that pink dress is pretty spot-on now albeit it's still a little bit short. So today I'm showing you how this pattern fits after making all the adjustments and lengthening it. You might also recognize the fabric as it's a tablecloth that was originally sold at Target but that I got for four bucks at my local Goodwill. I really scored that day on getting some home decor type fabric that works really well for clothing. The quote-unquote fabric for tablecloth is 100% cotton. It has a little bit of texture to it making me think it's like a dobby or something similar. Obviously it was super easy to work with being as it's cotton. Also it's a little bit more structured because it was you know a tablecloth and those aren't usually very drapey so it was really easy to cut, really easy to sew, really easy to press. It was kind of a dream to work with. I kept the original hem of the tablecloth and used that as the hem of the dress so I had just one less thing to sew. But one final thing I might change about this pattern is the length. I will get it right eventually. So the original version is super short and that might be because I have like a larger hip area and so it kind of raises the hem a little bit more. But a lot of you said after seeing the pink version that you thought it should be me-length so that's what I did to this one. But now I think it's too long. I'm losing most of my body's shape in this dress as it is being as that it's kind of like an A-line baby doll dress. I have no waist in this at all. And so when it's also this long and I'm losing like a leg and you know a knee and a thigh it's starting to look a little frumpier or maybe more like a nightgown. I think if I were to shorten it just by like three inches or so to where it hits at my low thigh it will be the perfect Goldilocks length for an A-line dress like this one for me. But other than that I think I got the bodice to fit pretty well. There's a teeny bit of gaping at the center front where those panels overlap. But I actually think that that's a sewing error and not actually a fitting pattern error. But be sure to check the description box to get the links to the previous videos that I have posted about this specific sewing pattern. It will really help you kind of understand the journey that we've been on and also the progression of making a wearable muslin, fixing it, fixing the pattern based on things that you notice in that muslin, and then making your final version. It's been really fun to work so hard on a basic design to get it to fit perfectly. All right that's gonna do it for me today. Please let me know what you think of this new version of Simplicity 2147 and if you have any thoughts or comments about the length please let me know those as well. Thank you so much for watching. I will see you all very soon. Bye!
