PATTERN FORMAT

Cute, comfy and effortlessly stylish, the Indigo smock has no fiddly fastenings so you can throw it on and go. Sew it with classic gathered seams or elevate it to a stand-out piece in your wardrobe with the pretty exposed frill seam.

Indigo has a bodice shaped with bust darts, gently curved empire waistline, and floaty gathered skirt. Make it as a top with dipped hem ending at the low hip, or a knee-length dress with straight hem and pockets (yay!). Choose from three-quarter flounce sleeves or slim-fitting bracelet sleeves. You’ll want to wear one every day of the week.

Want to get even more out of your pattern? Get the PDF Indigo add-on pattern, or choose PDF bundle option above, which includes extra pattern pieces and instructions for a midi skirt tier, button back opening, short ruffle sleeves and puffed sleeves.

Indigo is available in TWO size bands. If you are in between the two size charts, check out this post to see which one is right for you. Remember to select the option you want when purchasing.

          Beautiful dress

          A really easy dress pattern with infinite possibilities. The best bit is choosing buttons so you look good whichever way you are facing x

          Excellent

          I haven’t started it yet but it looks fabulous and easy to understand so I’m really looking forward to starting it.

          Hi Jayne, thanks for your review! We can't wait to see what you make! Hope you enjoy the process. :) Happy stitching! Virginija x

          I’ve made this pattern so many times, from a cotton tunic exactly as the pattern says, a super comfortable jersey version, to a fancy lined, silk maxidress that gives the beautiful print a chance to shine. Great instructions, and the printed pattern paper is substantial enough to live on for yet another version. Would recommend to any beginner as you’re more than likely to end up with something wearable and it’s a really useful pattern to have on hand.
