Poppy Dress Pattern

The Poppy Dress is a versatile and playful dress, fitted at the shoulders and relaxed through the body thanks to tiered gathers in two lengths. Make Poppy your own with your choice of short sleeves or long sleeves gently gathered into cuffs. Use flannel for a cozy winter dress, make a breezy picnic dress in cotton lawn, or choose a glittery lamé for a special party look.

Techniques involved include sewing straight seams, setting sleeves, creating a button placket, continuous plackets, attaching cuffs, adding a band collar, gathering, inserting buttons & buttonholes and basic hemming.
