A PDF sewing pattern made for petite plus sizes
If standard sewing patterns often feel too long or the waist sits in the wrong place, a pattern drafted specifically for petite proportions can make sewing your own clothes much more comfortable.
The Carmen Dress was created for petite plus-size women who want a feminine dress with a comfortable, easy-to-wear silhouette.
