I am Cinderella, a sewing pattern with multiple possibilities. I come in two lengths: a dress and a blouse. You can choose between 4 different sleeve finishes: a sleeveless version, a short sleeve, a short sleeve with ruffles and a short sleeve with double gather bands. I have a V-neckline, in-seam pockets for the dress version and I am very loose fitting. Try me on with a belt for a more feminine silhouette. Whichever version you choose, my simplicity and comfort will charm you.
I AM Patterns are designed to be traced off. The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper. This means that you will be able to make multiple sizes of the garment and adjust the pattern as you trace it if necessary. For this you could use tracing paper, baking parchment, thin wrapping paper; or we can supply you with some spot and cross pattern paper.
The pattern is enclosed in an envelope. It contains the sewing pattern along with a step-by-step illustrated explanation guide.
