The Kelly shirt dress is designed for woven fabrics, with a fitted darted bodice and lightly gathered skirt. 
It features inset diagonal style lines on the front and back which you can sew plain, or add the optional ruffle into the seam for a playful extra. 
The darted bodice also includes three different bust fit styles so you can spend less time fitting and more time enjoying sewing! 
The tailored elements such as the stand collar and seamed-on button band are balanced with more simple gathered puff sleeves and a gathered skirt. Choose from short puff sleeves or three-quarter length, and two length options for the skirt. 
This is a great skill-building pattern, with lots of core sewing techniques to practice and perfect with our thorough instructions. We hope you love all the details!

Note from Jo, designer: You may be wondering why we don't have a beautiful photoshoot to accompany this pattern. I am currently suffering from severe Long Covid and have had to suspend many activities, including sewing.
In the meantime, thank you for your patience and support in this extremely trying time. 🤍

Materials 

Fabric

Kelly is designed for light to medium-weight non-stretch wovens, such as chambray, poplin, shirting, flannel, double gauze, swiss dot, stable viscose/rayon, and linen.

Interfacing

1.1m (1.2 yards) of lightweight woven fusible interfacing.
0.5m (0.6 yards) of lightweight soft flexible interfacing.

Notions

Thread, thirteen buttons with a diameter of 1.3cm (1/2”) to 1.5cm (5/8”). Some views will require less buttons (see buttons table in materials chart).

Fabric requirements

Allow extra fabric if lengthening the garment, or cutting large scale prints.

See image slideshow for the fabric requirements charts.


Skill level

Kelly is labeled as an advanced pattern, but is a great choice for intermediate sewers that want to upskill themselves. The detailed instructions will help with the tailored elements such as the stand collar and button band. For an easier sewing experience, pick a stable, opaque fabric.

Forget-me-not patterns are designed for a height of 5’6” (168cm).

See image slideshow for the sizing charts. There is also a full explanation of how the bust sizing works in the pattern instruction booklet. See our sizing page for additional information on Forget-me-not sizing.

Nice Sturdy Decorative Piece

She is a bit bigger than I expected but makes a great hand towel holder in my bathroom.

Love this Greek Goddess Statue!
Size: Gallery
Very pleased with this piece! In my opinion it is reasonably priced and worth every penny! Arrived on time and securely packaged. Placed Venus of Arles in a niche in the entryway of our home, she fits perfectly with our decor and definitely makes a statement! So glad that we made this purchase.

Poor quality and does not match photos
Size: Gallery, Size: Gallery
Exceedingly poor quality and does not match the photos depicted the finish is very poor and shows paint bubbles and zero attention to detail. The casting is also subpar compared to others that are available many parts of the resin blended together and were a terrible looking in comparison to the images provided.

Decent quality, but not as described.
Size: Grande
Well when it eventually arrived (promised twice but only shipped on the third promise date). The quality was not as expected. It looks like molded plastic, not the "resin and crushed stone" in the description. I have two lions made by the same supplier and they ARE made of resin and crushed stone, and look like real stone. This statue looks like smooth molded plastic and does not look like $325 yard statue! On the whole we decided to keep it, and it adds a nice enough feature in the yard, but would not order from this manufacturer again. One other thing to note is that in the sales description and replies to questions it states it is suitable for outdoors. However they include a leaflet in the box once you have received it that states its not for outdoors year round... t heir way of creating a get out clause shod you have issues by using it outdoors...so inconsistent advice before and after you buy it!!!

Nice Piece of Art for Decoration
Size: Gallery
This statue looks great in the living room. The sunlight really makes it pop. It is heavy enough that our cat did not knock it over when rubbing on it. Since it only seems to take interest in expensive looking things, I took it as a compliment. And it is true, this piece looks fantastic. The only give away is that when you touch it, it doesn't "feel" expensive. But people (or animals) shouldn't be touching it anyway, so that isn't a problem for me!
