Julia Pinafore Dress sewing pattern (9-12mths to 12yrs)
This is the Julia Pinafore Dress sewing pattern for babies and girls from the designer Shaka Laka Patterns.
This timeless Pinafore Dress has a gathered skirt at the waist which creates a lovely fullness around the waist. The patch pockets make it extra cute and it has a front button closure, and you can choose to make the whole thing fully lined or you can line the bodice only.
The Julia Pinafore Dress is rated by the designer as super easy to make and she says it’s perfect for intermediate sewists.
