Françoise is a chic and easy-to-wear mini dress, inspired by sixties fashion yet always in style. The design features striking French darts and raglan seams. Choose from two-piece three-quarter length sleeves or a sleeveless version, with optional collar and waist tab. With its simple flat sleeve construction method and jargon-busting instructions, this pattern makes a great first dress project for beginner sewists. More experienced stitchers can add the optional collar and play around with design variations – how about adding piping to the raglan seam lines? The Françoise dress is a PDF pattern only. This pattern is not available as a printed pattern. SKILL LEVEL – Confident beginners PATTERN SUPPORT – Need extra Françoise sewing help? See our FREE tutorials!
