The Skipper Dress Little Girl Pattern - Merchant and Mills

Little girl pattern for ages 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 years. Inspired by the classic sailor bib, we pay homage to the ancient port of Rye (our hometown).

Skill level; Intermediate

Irresistibly redolant of carefree summer days and never growing up, the skipper is born to play. Featuring relaxed styling for easy dressing in rough seas, the Skipper has dropped shoulders and casual rolled cuffs whilst the neckline has an internal popper at the front V insert. Our sample has been made using our Goodnight laundered linen. We recommend medium to lightweight woven fabrics such as denim, cotton chambray, laundered linen or lightweight wool. You will also need a plastic dress popper, approximately 0.75m of shop bought 13mm bias binding, matching thread and lightweight fusible interfacing.

This is a multi-size paper pattern in an envelope, including sizes 3 – 8 years.

We think this would look amazing made up in Merchant & Mills "soapy cove" linen! You can add some to your basket here: https://schoolofsewingcarolynrose.co.uk/collections/linens/products/soapy-cove-merchant-mills-linen
