Just was not very well put together,
By
This review is from: Creative Clothing and Accessories for Children (Milner Craft Series) (Paperback)
The patterns themselves are not sized, just a small note on them like " Pattern designed to fit 7 year old", so unless you had a 7 year old who was lucky enough to be the particular size of the pattern, you had to do a lot of altering. This is not easy because of the pleats and points and gathers on these dresses. This book only had three boy patterns, and they were for outfits that would only be good for halloween costumes. The patterns themselves have to be inlarged using the 1in=4in grid which is timeconsuming and troublesome. There were very few accessories, and in total only eleven outfits. It would have made more sense for me to buy a couple of patterns at the store, most come with several different designs for dresses, full size patterns in the size you need, and clear directions. I have bought other similar books over the years, but none as poorly writen as this one.
