FABRIC
Please refer to the FABRIC REQUIREMENT CHART as one of the last images on this product listing. You can magnify this image by clicking on it if viewing on a mobile phone whilst in a fabric store.
The Flounce Tank & Shirt is designed for light-weight woven linen, cotton lawn, rayon or viscose.
The Flounce Dress works best is mid weight linen but equally can be sewn in a satin for evening or special occassion wear.
*Please also note that all (new) fabric should be pre-washed in case of shrinkage. 100% cotton & linen will shrink during the first wash. It doesn't hurt to be safe and remove any dodgy chemical build-up that may have occurred during printing anyway.

New ZealandFabulous Flounce
Have just finished the dress with short sleeves. The pattern is well designed it all went together perfectly I'm super happy with the result & I'm going to make the shirt next. I can see I'll use this pattern over & over. Well done once again Sewing Revival!
GermanyFlounce top sewn in linen
I used the pattern to make a sleeveless top in white linen. The fit is perfect, even the bust darts are placed perfectly for my body shape. Pattern instructions were clear, the process straightforward and enjoyable. I made another top (without flounce) because of the great fit, and consider making a dress as well. Highly recommended.
United StatesGreat pattern
This is an easy pattern to follow, and it made up beautifully. I’ve enjoyed wearing it. I think it runs a little large, but in this dress, that works fine.
AustraliaQuestion
I am wondering if anyone has made this without the frill? Thanks Glenda
NorwayGood pattern
This is a simple, easy and lovely dress pattern. The sizing is good and accurate and the instructions are easy to understand. I made the dress and will be making the shirt with the back pleat- hack soon.
CanadaFlounce dress
I’m a beginner’ish sewer, so I made the dress with the help of a very experienced seamstress. I think I would’ve had trouble doing the dress on my own. Thankfully, she has a surger, so she was able to do the edging of the flounce on the surger. I think it would not have looked great using the zigzag stitch on my sewing machine. I modified the dress to be long and I put a slit in the one side. Overall, it turned out nice, but the neck is not 100% due to the multiple layers of fabric and it was difficult to get a clean sharp edge. I might actually try this pattern again in a different colour just for practice.
United StatesVery nice dress
This is very simple to download, cut out & sew. For me - it’s the perfect summer dress.
United KingdomExcellent Pattern As Always
I an quite a new-ish sewer, but I know Janine's patterns will always work for me. I think this is my 6th pattern. I always feel confident because I now I know my size in these patterns I can go straight in and cut out my size without doing a toille. The instructions are always so brilliantly written and hold your hand all the way through. The thing I love is that there are so many options within the one pattern, which makes the cost of the pattern great value.
United KingdomFLOUNCE DRESS
I have bought and made a few Sewing Revival patterns and have been pleased with all of them. I loved the look of the Flounce dress and top. I made a wearable toile of the Flounce top. It went together beautifully. I used my overlocker to make the frills and it was so easy and looked so effective. The top is gorgeous but a bit too big around the armholes for me. I have managed to fit it okay though. I suspect I made it too big so plan to make a smaller size next time. It's a really lovely pattern and one of the prettiest and stylish things I've ever made. Love it.
United StatesI made a great blouse!
Overall, the pattern was easy to put together using the layer feature, and the instructions were pretty clear. I got a little tripped up on the ruffle. Once I figured that out, the rest was pretty clear. I love the finished product. My next project with this pattern will be grasshopper green linen in a full dress.
United StatesPretty and unique
I haven't finished the garment yet, but the pattern is well drafted and instructions are well written.
New ZealandThanks
Great. Been so busy sewing to reply.
The Sewing Revival
Brilliant!!! Priorities in the right order.
New ZealandMy Christmas Dress
I made this dress in a rich green linen and was thrilled with the result. I used the rolled hem function on my overlocker for the edge of the flounces and this gave a nice finish on the medium weight linen. Using an all in one facing for the neck and armholes gave a nice clean result. Overall a simple shift dress with that extra flounce made for a timeless dress that I will wear again and again. Great design excellent instructions. Thank you.
New ZealandLoved it
Nice and easy to make. Love the range of option. Looking forward to making lots of top using left over fabrics
AustraliaEven the most novice sewer could make this!
Instructions were really clear and easy to follow. Tricky bits had explanatory online tips/videos!
New ZealandFlounce dress, tank and shirt
As usual The Sewing Revival have done it again. A lovely design, easy to put together tiled pattern and sewed up with no glitches. I made the shirt in 100% linen and chose to do the back hack and the lower hem at the back as well. The double flounce was easy to do, if you took it slowly, there was no problem. I have had lots of compliments when I wear the shirt. Very happy to recommend to everybody.
New ZealandBeautiful Pattern
The pattern instructions were very clear and easy to follow. True to size. So good I made one blouse without the flounce and cuffs on short sleeves and one with the flounce.
