More and more covers in bilingual French English versions

3 new patterns have been available at ikatee since July: the Milano kids' dungaree dress, and the Anna dress for kids and women.

Milano kids 3-12, a pattern with several versions

After the baby version, Milano is now available in a children's version in sizes 3-12.
Milano can be worn as is in summer or layered in winter. It's truly a must-have in any little girl's wardrobe.
The dress is characterized by a lined bib on the front, wide straps , with or without ruffles, which are crossed in the back. The waist is elasticated on the back and on the sides . The skirt is gathered under the bib. Finally, two styles of pockets are offered : short or long and an option with straps tied on the front. The most basic version can be embellished with optional piping around the bib and at the top of the pockets.

Anna, in kids 3-12 and in women

Anna is a complete dress because it can be worn in summer or winter thanks to its options : short tied sleeves, long sleeves, long or short skirt. The neckline, slightly more scooped in women's style, remains high enough to be worn in autumn and winter as well. The crossed back can also be adapted to the front (we explain how to do this in the tutorial and in the video). The finishes are as always neat with French seams on the sides and a facing at the neckline and front.

Anna Mum is designed for a height of 165cm. We explain to seamstresses (in the tutorial and in the video) how to lengthen or shorten the pattern pieces if they are larger or smaller. A video on the website also explains how to make arms wider.

Videos available on the site

As with all the latest pattern videos, seamstresses can jump directly to the chapters that interest them or view all the tips and assembly steps. Ikatee takes special care in the preparation, filming, and audio recording of these video tutorials to ensure accessible teaching and easy sewing.
