PDF Low Bib Pinafore Pattern - Sewing Therapy

An afternoon sew

I had the pattern printed at a copy shop, highly recommend if available to you. I cut the pattern and fabric at lunch and had a pinafore by dinner! I used a striped linen fabric, very lightweight woven so opted to interface the front bib as well as the angled pocket liner. I would definitely recommend watching the YouTube tutorial before starting, then reading the pattern and checking your measurements before cutting anything. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned sewist my favorite thing about Sewing Therapy is the reminder of best practices for the best results — press when the pattern tells you, mark your notches, and don’t be in a rush :) For sizing, I did choose to make size 24. My hip measurement is 50.5” and my waist is 42” - so I didn’t want to risk size 22 not being comfortable. I do not have a very large bust and I feel like the finished garment sits to the side as intended. Also as recommended in the pattern, I cut the back elastic to 20” and adjusted so the back piece felt a bit more snug around my waist. If I had to guess the final elastic size was probably 18” - it was nice to have the extra for insurance. A big thank you to Sara for your hard work, for such an easy to follow pattern, that produces such a beautiful garment.

This is the handmade item you NEED in your wardrobe!

I made this pattern two weeks ago and have been obsessed with it ever since! It goes so well with so many items I already have in my wardrobe and can be styled so many different ways! It has a simple yet flattering design that is beautifully drafted to provide a touch of romance and whimsy to the everyday. I really appreciate the detailed instructions that Sara has taken the time to write as well as the sew along video. It is a simple and enjoyable sew and I will definitely be making more!
