Dresses!
A quick glance at our catalog will reveal that we have a soft spot for children's dress patterns. In fact, you'll find 22 of them, and we're not counting the different options. Who can claim to have sewn them all? 😉 This has allowed us not only to develop a certain expertise on the subject, but also to offer a complete range. We've selected four to present to you this week!
Milan
✂️ Difficulty level: easy
👗 Size range: from 6 months to 4 years and from 3 years to 12 years
🎬 Video tutorial available
When ikatee revisits the apron dress, the result is the Milano pattern! An easy-to-sew model with beautiful options like ruffles on the straps or a small bow closure. You can play with materials and layering depending on the season: wear it over a halter top in summer and with a sweater in winter.

Stella
✂️ Difficulty level: intermediate
👗 Size range: from 3 to 12 years
Stella is a refined dress or blouse pattern that you can use on multiple occasions. With its pretty yokes, its slightly loose fit, and with or without sleeves, you're sure to find a version that will please you, and above all, one that will please girls, young and old. The two large ruffles included in the seams give this pattern a lot of allure... for princesses!

Sakura
✂️ Difficulty level: intermediate
👗 Size range: from 3 to 12 years
🎬 Video tutorial available
Sakura is a pretty blouse or dress pattern with a bohemian look. It can be worn all year round: with short, airy sleeves for hot weather, or with long sleeves over a sweater in winter! We particularly like the bib that allows you to insert piping, lace, or even a ladder cut on the sides of the yoke. Special care is taken with the finishing touches: lined bib, cutouts, French seams, your project will be as beautiful inside as it is out. It's all in the details! This pattern is also available in a women's version from size 32 to 52.

Lena
✂️ Difficulty level: easy
👗 Size range: from 3 to 12 years
Chic evening or beach day: with its thin straps, Léna will be the pattern for your summer dress. Contrary to appearances, Léna is rather quick to sew and accessible to the most novice seamstresses: a few straight seams and, as usual, all our tips are available in the tutorial booklet. Still, plan on a good length of fabric: Léna is a dress that spins, and that should please little girls 😉. Léna also exists in a women's version from 34 to 46.
