Fabric and Pattern Review!
Ponte de Roma Knit Solid Light Green Review
This ponte de roma double knit fabric is perfect for creating skirts, dresses, structured tops, heavier T-shirts, jackets, pants and more! It has a soft hand, full bodied drape and 25% four way stretch across the grain.
Sorry, My camera doesn't help with the color much.
The Front view of the fabric has a Egyptian cotton look to it, you know the way 600 luxury sheets look. Here a example picture of the sheets I'm comparing the texture too.

Overall I give the fabric a top (5) for winter sweater weather.
with 2 yards I was able to make two dresses one to give to a friend and the other to keep for myself although I could've made a cute sweater (evil bunny face).
Pattern Description:
Pullover, close-fitting, lined or unlined dress that has a draped side and narrow hem.Pattern Sizing:
I choose to cut the size 6
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Well I opt to sew the draped sides and just sew the lining, But YEA!! It look just like the picture as i imagined.
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yea the pattern only take to sew the side, shoulders and hem. If you wanted to extend your learning this would be a great base piece.
I particularly liked about this pattern that I can used it for everyday wear. Having something as simple as this pattern handed complements my skills as a seamstress. If someone ever wanted something customer to this scale I would be two steps ahead.
I Would recommend it to others most Def.
Conclusion:
Sometimes simple is best!
