Kelly's Kids Knockoff Dress Pattern
Months ago, I made my friend's daughter this cute Kelly's Kids Caroline Dress for Easter. You can read the original posts here and here.
I've had several requests for the pattern I came up with to make it, and about a month ago, I finally decided to scan in the pieces. Well, I didn't stop there. I also figured out how to digitized the pieces so I would have professional looking pattern! I've finally learned just enough about Photoshop to be dangerous!
Anyway, I've put together a pattern and instructions for making the dress in a size 8. Now the instructions are not a full tutorial with pictures and such, but I've provided a lot of useful written details on how to sew your very own Kelly's Kids Knockoff Dress! If I ever decide to make this dress again, I promise I'll put together a picture filled tutorial to share on the blog, but for now, this will have to do.
If you'd like to download the pattern and instructions, click HERE.
And if you have any questions or find any major errors with the pattern, please email me at sewvery(at)gmail(dot)com.

Thank you! I am about to attempt to download this pattern. I actually need a size 10, but I am going to try to enlarge it. It probably only needs lengthening, because my daughter is slim, just taller than a size 8.
ReplyDeleteLove, Love, Love the pattern. I have a lot of friends that buy Kelly Kids and I do think they have some cute designs...but choke at the idea of dropping that much money when I know I can sew!! :) Thanks for the pattern.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Amanda! I'm so glad you like it! It makes me feel good knowing that others have actually downloaded the pattern and were able to use it! I know my sewing and pattern making skills have improved since I first made this and published it, so please feel to let me know if you have any questions.
