This is a digital PDF sewing pattern, not a physical product.
The Hallon Dress is such a happy, swingy dress! I hope wearing it makes you feel like a summer day.
View A has a very relaxed fit, and a lovely ruffled hem. The back sits low and loose, so the shape of your gorgeous back can be seen.
You will learn how to:
- Make and use bias binding
- Gather fabric
- Sew darts
- Sew French seams
View B has a straighter fit, with no back gathers so it sits closer to your back. It also has side seam slits. In addition to what you will learn in View A, you will also learn:
- French seam side slits
You can of course mix it up and put the hem ruffle on View B, and vice versa, not use the hem ruffle on View A and instead add side seam slits.

ABOUT THE DESIGNER
I was born and raised in Sweden, and studied Fashion Design and Pattern Making there. In my twenties I came to Hawai'i, fell in love with a local surfer, and now we are raising our three boys on the island of O'ahu. I feel incredibly blessed to call this amazing place home!
I started my pattern making/technical design career in 2016 in Honolulu, working for small, local brands. After a few years I fell pregnant with my first son, and decided I wanted to freelance when I became a mother. My job now is so fun and multi-faceted. I still work with a lot of local brands, and I even get to pattern and grade for a lot of people that I met through Instagram, in addition to running my own little pattern design studio, Paradise Patterns. I love having one foot in the clothing manufacturing business as well as the home sewing community!
Thank you so much for stopping by, and please feel free to email me with any questions!
