The Hinterland Dress offers a timeless, comfortable, and elegant silhouette. Featuring three sleeve lengths, full, half, or placket-free options, customizable length, and inseam pockets, this is a pattern workhorse that spans the seasons.

The fit of the Hinterland Dress is loose, with side bust darts and a gathered skirt with optional waist ties, and is easily modified for maternity and nursing. Don’t feel like buttons? Cut the front bodice on the fold for a placket-free look. You might consider lengthening the bodice and hacking it into an adorable cropped top, too!

This pattern is suitable for advanced beginners. You will learn how to do a full or small bust adjustment, sew bust darts, bias facings, inseam pockets, button plackets, and inset sleeves.

* AFTER the bodice fitting session on June 15, please come to the SECOND class with your fabric washed, dried, ironed, and cut out.

*If you come to the SECOND class with your pattern cut out it maximizes your working time in class. If you need help choosing your pattern size or need assistance with cutting we are always happy to help! You are welcome to come into Home Ec Workshop to cut out anytime except when there’s a class going on in the workshop.

Supplies Needed:  Fabric per pattern requirements, basic sewing kit (thread, scissors, marking pen, pins, seam ripper)

You will receive 15% off all supplies you purchase for class!
