A forgotten MOOCHi dress

I was writing a post on my recent scrappy makes when I realised that I had forgotten write a post on the last MOOCHi dress I made. It's a free pattern. It's also a very much loved dress in Miss Four's wardrobe that will unfortunately have to be retired soon. The voile I thought was cotton turned out to be a poly blend and it has pilled horribly. The dress has had a LOT of wear though.

 
 
The back skirt has a centre back seam that is not in the actual pattern. I was a little short on fabric.
 
 
 

This is the elastic back version with an extra little skirt overlay.


Apparently the overlay makes it particularly good for twirling. You will recognise this exact dress in some of the photo instructions of the free pattern.

 

 

 
And while I'm on the topic of the MOOCHi dress, you should head over to Another Sewing Blog to check out the super cute versions there.

  1. Debbie, thank you for sharing the pattern :) I am sure I will be making more of these coming into summer. We just had 2 consecutive 30 degree days in Sydney!

    1. You are most welcome! I think we have the same temps here right now. But that's pretty hot for this time of year in Sydney!
