United StatesLove love love
This pattern is wonderful. Easy to make, and would be fun for a learning sewist to practice some new techniques.
United KingdomEasy to Follow / Minimal Design
The TAL Box Pleat Dress was an excellent introduction for me to sewing. With incredibly easy-to-follow instructions, including a visual glossary of basic sewing terminology and techniques, this pattern gave me the confidence to begin my sewing journey. I'm still hooked on sewing two years on, all thanks to this pattern. The design of the dress is minimal, with subtle details, making it timeless and unique (like the rest of TALs patterns!). Definitely a pattern you can make over and over again.
NetherlandsVersatile with beautifull lines
Very clear instructions. Not a difficult make. This one is my toile from denim with a little stretch. I already bought a beautifull dark blue linen to make another one!
