You can make this adorable flouncy sundress or top with a trendy tiered design! It looks lovely with alternating tiers of only 2 fabrics, or as many as 5 can be used for a really fun mix-it-up effect. Shorten it by following the included instructions, and you have an adorable tiered top she'll love. This is a great pattern for showcasing your favorite fabric coordinates, or mixing up your fabric stash in a whole new way!
The only needed materials for constructing the dress are fabric and bias tape - no fasteners are needed - and instructions are given for making your own bias tape from fabric if purchased bias tape is not used. Once you learn to make your own bias tape, you'll never go back to purchased! Perfect for beginning sewers on up.

Very easy and fun pattern. I can see myself making several for my Grand-daughter. Wonderful way of using scraps of fabric that aren't enough for a whole dress...

Love this pattern. again I had a bit of difficulty with binding in the beginning, but after a few tries it goes together quickly for me.
Keegan, Poppy - January 18th, 2012
Wonderful range of sizes in one pattern. My daughter wore her Flouncy Sundress more than any other last summer and always received compliments on it. I will definitely be making more, very simple and so many possibilities for mixing fabrics.

VERY easy to put together, with endless variations. Simple to follow instructions. I even shortened this to one tier for use as a top - my daughter loves it!
janks - January 4th, 2012

Wangerin, Becky - January 3rd, 2012
Love this pattern! Its so easy to put together, and a great way to use up fabrics leftover from other projects for the tiers. Completely adorable, fast and easy to put together ,and easy to follow pattern!
Tracy Minyard - August 1st, 2011
I am SO pleased with how easy this dress came together and by how beautiful it is. This is a unique way of assembling a dress with an amazing result. The explanations for making your own bias tape from a fat quarter are a huge blessing to me, well worth the cost of the pattern. One fat quarter was more than enough bias tape for the size 8 dress. There will be many more of these sweet dresses made in my house!
Sunshine Letsinger - August 1st, 2011
I LOVE this pattern! I went on a recent pattern shopping spree and this sundress is my favorite to sew! My daughter loves wearing it, too! When she says it's fast and easy to sew up, she isn't kidding! I have very little patience for sewing clothes, but this pattern has turned me around! I'm on my second sundress and trying to think of other little girls I can sew them up for! :O)

love this I wish there was an exact pattern like this for adults
Patricia KRENCIK - August 1st, 2011
I was amazed at how quickly this dress went together. I did do my homework before I got started by making my bias the instructions are included. Such a cute dress - I would include a picture but there was no place to do that.
maryann protasiewicz - August 1st, 2011
Awesome Beginner dress, I made it for my daughter for her 2nd birthday. easy to adjust, no hemming, no buttons, no zippers. Plan to make a few as gifts. oh and uses minimal fabric. great scrap project too.
Alisha Crandall - August 1st, 2011
