Framfield Dress
Description
Suitable for beginners, this is a really flattering & comfortable dress with V neck, in-seam pockets and a pleated skirt.
Make up in a light cotton or linen for sultry summer days or go for a heavier weight linen, denim or wool mix for Autumn/Winter.
You can get a different look by adding patch pockets, shortening the skirt or omitting the sleeves.
This pattern also comes with a free tutorial video that takes you through all stages of construction. You can view the video before buying the pattern if you’d like to get more detail about construction - just scroll to the bottom of the page.

About Our Patterns
Our patterns are printed on high quality paper rather than tissue paper, making them much more re-usable and less likely to tear. Patterns are packaged in a sturdy re-usable string and washer envelope and come with a clearly written and illustrated instruction booklet, along with a QR code that will take you directly to the corresponding YouTube video tutorial.
Our tutorial videos all features chapter marks, allowing you to jump directly to specific construction steps without needing to search through the video manually. They also contain useful hints and tips from the Sussex Seamstress herself. Tutorials are produced with the maker in mind, and are to-the-point and informative.
Format
This is a paper pattern plus instructions. We aim to mail out patterns the next working day.
