For the calculations provided in the fabric requirement table, we have used the standard European fabric width, which is typically 140 cm (55 inches). The measurements are presented in centimeters, with the equivalent in yards provided in parentheses below each figure.
Please note that different fabrics can shrink differently after washing, so we recommend adding extra fabric to account for this shrinkage. It's advisable to purchase additional fabric to ensure you have enough for your project.

I havent seen the pattern yet
Is the best pattern i have bought
I just finished my first Bluebell dress and I'm smitten. I've sewn multiple Lelani Cullots and Petsl Blouses and they are staples in my daughter's closet. This was my first dress pattern from Flora. I ended up redoing the yoke on the first go because I was being particular, and my daughters' sizing is a bit crazy. That being said, the end result was completely worth the extra 1/2 yard of fabric to make her the perfect size. It's really such a sweet summer dress.
This pattern was easy to follow and turned out so beautiful. I had a question (due to my inexperience) and Kristina answered it very quickly and seems so friendly and encouraging. I love that there are so many options to modify the garment. I already have fabric cut for the next one!!
Supermooi model. Duidelijke stap voor stap uitleg en snel in elkaar.
