Pattern Review: Jocole Ladies Quick Dress and Top Pattern

A few months ago, I sewed up several outfits for myself for a super fun experience (can’t wait to tell you guys!) and I haven’t really had time to blog about the sewing projects yet… until now!

First up, is the awesome Jocole Ladies Quick Dress and Top pattern, which is sized XS-XXXL.
**Pattern was provided to me at no cost, but the opinions are 100% my own.**

I chose to make the top version with the contrasting yoke option.
I made the size XS and used a bright pink knit for the lower part and a sheer floral polyester chiffon for the yoke and back.
I originally purchased the fabric at Joann Fabrics and found THIS as a close match.

The fit is spot on in the chest and waist.
The only modification I made was creating a curved up waist and back for interest, otherwise, it would have been straight across.

I love the sheer chiffon back.  I do wear a nude colored camisole underneath, but this is such a store bought looking top.

    It’s so pretty Hayley. How did you attach chiffon to knit? Any tips?
