Petworth Dress
Description
The Petworth Dress offers a flattering relaxed fit that suits every body shape. On trend and perfect for Spring/Autumn transition wear. Light enough for warmer days, wear with a cardigan for the slightly chillier ones. Relaxed and comfortable it works just as well at the office as it does for an evening out or a country walk.
If the length is not to your style, make a shorter version by shortening the skirt frills or just leave the bottom frill off - you’ll also benefit from needing less fabric - useful for using up some of your stash!
If the narrow binding at the neck looks a little tricky, why not make a much wider strip and tie in a pussy bow?
