I recently emailed Maaike to ask if she would recommend this pattern being made from the chunky cotton knit and she responded promptly and gave great advice. It was so convenient to be able to have the pattern printed in A0 size too.
Quality classic pattern.
MaaiDesigns are a favourite.
I've made three of these and absolutely love them!
The fit is great and the style goes with heaps of things.
I'm super happy with this pattern
Bought the Box dress pattern as a PDF, printed and put together to make in the washed denim.Oh boy! Pattern went together really well and directions excellent.
Fabric is gorgeous and so happy with the outcome. Have put in second order for fabric and patterns and now waiting for fabric to dry before making up. QUALITY
