I sewed up the Norah Dress by Welcome to the Mouse House for Miss Marion and she looks so so sweet! This pattern is another great one in the Sew Fab Bundle. I loved how easily it came together and how nice it looks on my girl.
Since the Norah Dress is a simple A line, the assembly was very straight forward. The collar and sleeves came together beautifully! I was pretty relieved not to have to do any skirt gathering!
The dress is lined only on the top which was really nice for the finish but kept it from being too heavy as fully lined dresses can sometime become. Also, the back closure is a simple button and loop which looked great! I can finally do a decent button hole but appreciate avoiding the process if possible!
I added 2 little white buttons under the collar fo some extra interest since my dress fabric was so simple. I love how sweet and nostalgic this turned out! The norah dress is a wonderful staple to have in your patterncollection. It doesn't use too much fabric, it's easy to assemble, and it produces a lovely dress. Hurrah!

A cute dress but I think it would look 100% better if the collar was cream colored to match the fabric!!.
