Plumpton Dress PDF
Description
The Plumpton is a practical, loose fit knee length dress with flattering princess seams, a square neckline and lovely big pockets.
Make up in a woven fabric with a bit of stretch (3%) for easy dressing. Use denim or wool for Autumn/Winter and pair with tights & boots. Make up in a Bengaline for Spring/Summer and wear with sandals and a cardi.
The dress is fitted at the bust and loose over the waist with no zips or fastenings. If you prefer a more fitted waistline you may need to add a zip to the side seam or use a fabric with more stretch so you can still get it over your shoulders.

No Paper Trimming Needed and Fewer Sheets of Paper
Our PDF sewing patterns come in a no-trim format, meaning you simply tape the pieces of paper together at their edges without any trimming of the paper required. This saves a lot of time and hassle and also reduces paper and ink usage, so its better for both the environment and your wallet.
