Vogue 9237 in Rathdowne Fabrics Cotton Sateen

Does anyone nickname their patterns? This pattern is affectionately known as the “ruffle butt dress” to us, but is correctly known as Vogue 9237 😂 This pattern has been the dress of summer – this is the fourth version in our family in the last year! With a loose fit and only one button, it is comfy to wear and a rewarding dress to sew ✂️

The fabric for this dress was from Rathdowne Fabrics that we picked up from their remnant pins at the back, with a tight amount of a fabric the printed landscape was perfect for the ruffle but didn’t leave enough room for sleeves on this version so we used a bias finish on the inside. 

Pattern: Vogue v9237

Vogue 9237 is a Very Easy Vogue Dress pattern with a loose-fitting pullover style that has a round neck with a button and loop closing at the back neck. The main feature is the back ruffle panel create a playful design element.
