I had this pattern in my stash since December 2023. I actually asked for this pattern for Christmas! I was so excited to make it, but I was also intimated. I didn't know if I was ready to make a fitted garment like this.

I'm so glad I decided to take the plunge because this is now my new favorite dress. Sew along with me, and stay till the end for the reveal and my honest review of the dress pattern, The Mathilde Dress by Alli's Patterns.
