Tester Reviews

Mandy: "The peppermint swirl dress has been a favorite of my daughter's since I sewed her one age 2. She is now 11 and was sad when she outgrew the children's sizing. I love how easy Candy Castle Pattern's sew up and we were both thrilled to see the extended sizing on this add-on! My daughter loved how the stripes looked with the continuous bodice and she is happy to be twirling again in another swirl dress."

Beth: "This pattern is explained so clearly that making this amazing little dress for my daughter was so easy! Any questions I could have had were explained perfectly."

Jen: "This is a clear, concise, deceptively simple and beautiful pattern. It was easy to use and well written!"

Chelsey: "The Continuous Swirl Bodice Add-On pattern transforms the Peppermint Swirl skirt into the most epic rainbow dress!"

Leigh: "If you want a dress that looks super fancy but that even a newbie can make then this is it! So many beautiful options you can make and so many new skills you can learn packed into one brilliant design."
