Premium Pattern: SewGirl Cecily Dress

A gorgeous boat neck dress with a bodice with bust darts, pleated on the waist, make with short or long sleeves, an optional side concealed zip (it can be made without a zip as it can easily go over the head), side pocket and optional tie belt.

Suitable for intermediates, i.e sewers some previous dressmaking experience.

This is a dress that you will make again and again, it looks great made up in bold patterned cotton fabric, as Fiona has done with fabulous African fabric or just as lovely in simple understated plain linen, denim fabrics or spots and stripes.

The pattern comes in sizes 8-20.

Suitable for medium weight cottons, linen and linen mix fabrics.


Here's what customers say about the Cecily dress...

This is a great pattern. Easy to sew and the fit was excellent for my chosen size. Presented on good quality paper. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. Would highly recommend.


The Cecily dress is available to buy from the SewGirl store for £18.50, but during the month of November 2021, it was available for CraftWorld Premium members to download for free as part of our Designer of the Month program.
