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.
