retro romper : 129

Adorable!

This romper is absolutely precious! I did feel like the sizing was a little large around the neck. As an advanced beginner the instructions were great, I only had a hard time understanding the collar.

Cute Design, Pattern has faults

This Romper is incredibly cute and seems very accurate on sizing. However, I was hugely disappointed with the below: 1) The instruction file - each page isn’t numbered and the steps aren’t either. So if you’re anything like me and like printed instructions be sure to take the additional step to number the pages and steps. 2) The printed pattern assembly - So confusing to cut! I have nearly a 100 digital patterns and this was the most difficult to assemble. 3) Missing steps - The pattern fails to include an important part of serging the raw edge of the front snap panel area before sewing. I thought they’d have you turn it in at some point, sewed most of my garment and got to the end with the ugly unprofessional looking seam on the inside. With all this being said, I’d still buy another pattern and next time will be sure to follow all lessons learnt and hope that B&T considers adding basic needs to the document (like page numbers/steps etc).

So cute and fun to sew!

I don't know why this pattern didn't catch my eye until recently. Maybe cause I finally invested in a KAM snap kit? Anywho, I find this pattern VERY fun and satisfying to whip up and it takes very little fabric! Less than the pattern says it requires, in my experience.
