The Austin Dress is a semi-fitted sleeveless dress paper sewing pattern with armhole darts and a keyhole opening at the center front. Customize the Austin with your choice of a knee length A-line or midi-length gathered skirt and add optional patch pockets to carry snacks for you (and your furry friends!). Topstitched seams and button band closures at the side seams add both function and interest.
Techniques involved include sewing a straight seam, darts, hemming, topstitching, applying bias facings, inserting buttonholes and attaching buttons.
