The Mayla Dress sewing pattern (Sizes 2 to 10)
|This is the Mayla Dress pdf sewing pattern from the designer The Freckled Pear.
The Mayla Dress is a fantastic dress with lots of ruffles. And who doesn’t love ruffles, they are so much fun!
The designer describes her Mayla Dress as perfect with so many fabrics – so many different looks… classic, boho, homespun, bright “fun in the sun”. You can sew it up in a fancy fabric for an elegant look, or go casual with a top like a denim jacket in the cooler months.
If you like, you can also leave the ruffles off for a more tailored look.
You can use one fabric for the skirt and ruffles and a coordinating fabric for the center bodice. There are a whole lot of possibilities with this sewing project!
The Mayla Dress is knee length with a fully lined bodice and buttons in the back. There’s even an optional bow!
The designer rates her project as suitable for an advanced beginner to intermediate sewer.
