The Kelly shirt dress is designed for woven fabrics, with a fitted darted bodice and lightly gathered skirt. 
It features inset diagonal style lines on the front and back which you can sew plain, or add the optional ruffle into the seam for a playful extra. 
The darted bodice also includes three different bust fit styles so you can spend less time fitting and more time enjoying sewing! 
The tailored elements such as the stand collar and seamed-on button band are balanced with more simple gathered puff sleeves and a gathered skirt. Choose from short puff sleeves or three-quarter length, and two length options for the skirt. 
This is a great skill-building pattern, with lots of core sewing techniques to practice and perfect with our thorough instructions. We hope you love all the details!

Note from Jo, designer: You may be wondering why we don't have a beautiful photoshoot to accompany this pattern. I am currently suffering from severe Long Covid and have had to suspend many activities, including sewing.
In the meantime, thank you for your patience and support in this extremely trying time. 🤍

Interfacing

1.1m (1.2 yards) of lightweight woven fusible interfacing.
0.5m (0.6 yards) of lightweight soft flexible interfacing.

Notions

Thread, thirteen buttons with a diameter of 1.3cm (1/2”) to 1.5cm (5/8”). Some views will require less buttons (see buttons table in materials chart).

Fabric requirements

Allow extra fabric if lengthening the garment, or cutting large scale prints.

See image slideshow for the fabric requirements charts.


Skill level

Kelly is labeled as an advanced pattern, but is a great choice for intermediate sewers that want to upskill themselves. The detailed instructions will help with the tailored elements such as the stand collar and button band. For an easier sewing experience, pick a stable, opaque fabric.

Great moisturizing body wash, but the scent takes some getting used to
Scent: Fragranced, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I've been using Dove products for years and this body wash does not disappoint when it comes to moisturizing. My skin feels genuinely soft and hydrated after every shower without that tight, dry feeling I get with other cleansers. The no sulfates and no parabens formula is a big plus for me as I've been trying to be more conscious about what goes on my skin. At 30.6 oz it's also a great size that lasts a good while. My only real note is that the scent is a bit different than what I expected — it's not unpleasant but there's a slightly unusual undertone that I couldn't quite put my finger on at first. It took me maybe a week or so of using it before I stopped noticing it. If you're sensitive to scents it might throw you off initially, but it does fade quickly once you're out of the shower. Overall a solid body wash that delivers on the moisture promise — just go in knowing the scent might need a little adjustment period.

Wow, Dove really outdid themselves. Great product.
Scent: Fragranced, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Wow, what a difference what a difference Amazon basic body wash is what I was using before to be honest and it used to be very good. I don’t know if they changed the formula but that formula now it doesn’t lather up. You have to use half the bottle to get it to lather up this one lathers up amazingly well and you only need a few pushes. As a guy, I love it. We have dry skin too, just like anybody else so between moisturizer and lather , the scent the skin protection the skin softeners the whole thing it’s great. And you get a lot of of it too, which is awesome so overall at least to me a great value for the money

Best skin care product ever tried
I am 74 years old and have been using this product for 23 days. I could see a difference the first time using it. My face was a lot smoother and hydrated. I apply it after cleansing my face morning and night followed by my regular moisturizer. It has diminished wrinkles and makes my face glow. It also blends well with liquid foundation. I have been getting compliments but have not told anyone what I am using yet. It also helps to smooth the tops of my hands and arms. I have tried many skin care products and never gotten results like this.
