[2] - Reviewing McCall's 8385 Shirtdress

This is my review of McCall's 8385 pattern. The take-aways are:
The waist is dropped too low and needed to be raised approximately 2 inches for my body type.
I added set in patch pockets
I elongated the sleeves
I omitted the collar.
Current Measurements
Bust - 52
Waist - 45
Hips - 57
I cut a size 34 in this pattern. That was too big once I made the adjustments.

I’ve had this pattern for a little while and never got around to sewing it. I love what you did with it especially the green outfit. I made note of the long waist, thanks for sharing that. This will make a good transition piece (depending on fabric) for fall, so hopefully I can get this done soon. Great video 😊

I'm glad it helped. I Will probably use the sleeves on other things now. Thank you for watching!

Thank you so much! It has been wonderful to learn to sew again after so long away.
