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.

Neck pain NO more!
Size: 2.7"H (Queen)
Favorite!!!! Fantastic pillow! It is not real high, so your neck stays in a proper, and comfortable angle to your spine!!! It’s soft, BUT not to the extent that your head sinks down. I have arthritis in my neck, and this pillow is SO COMFORTABLE!! I wake up with no pain in my neck. It is not memory foam, it’s latex, so it remains cool. I normally sleep on my back, or stomach, and either way, it’s great. When I sleep on my side, I add an additional small pillow. Nothing but high marks from me for this quality pillow. I love it! I’ll buy a smaller one for travel.

The Best Pillow I Ever Slept On
Size: 2.7"H (Standard)
I can't say enough about how wonderful this pillow is I am a side sleeper and I have to say since purchasing this pillow I have had the best sleep that I have had in years! The problem I had with most conventional pillows was that they would be so thick and poofy that my eye that was against the pillow would get buried in the pillow Loft and I would wake up the next morning with a dry scratchy eye and it would take hours for that Vision to be completely normal. This may look like it is incredibly thin and it is thin but not too thin if you are a side sleeper it is the perfect thing. The resiliency/bounce of this pillow keeps your eyes from being affected by the pillow Loft perfectly aligns your head neck and spine and it is also incredibly cool to sleep on no more waking up with your face and hair matted in sweat. The only downside of this pillow is that it does have a fairly strong rubbery smell but I found that after about 2 days that pretty much completely goes away. It is so completely worth dealing with that rubbery odor for a couple of days for the amazing comfort that this pillow brings along with a truly great night's sleep I wish I had known about and bought it years ago I will definitely have these on my bed as long as they are available to purchase I highly recommend this to anyone who is a side sleeper and anyone that is looking for a pillow that is tremendously comfortable and cool to sleep on I would give it more than five stars if that were possible!

It Is Slim But Very Firm With Virtually No Give
Size: 2.7"H (Standard)
I bought this pillow hoping that it would lift my head gently but not push it forward. They said in the description that it was soft but it isn't, it's really quite firm and no ones head is going to sink into it hence it just pushes it up. Now if that's what you are looking for, then you've found your pillow. They were very good about the return and it is packed very well and very nicely.
