Sew Liberated - Ashland Dress Sewing Pattern

The Ashland Dress contours to your curves, with pattern pieces not just for sizes 2-20, but also for A-D cups. You get a great fit without tricky bust adjustments.

The Ashland bodice is fully-lined, allowing you to use lighter-weight fabrics. It looks great in wool too, making it an all-season design. Try the sleeveless version in summer and the 3/4-length sleeves in the chill.

Two pocket versions, a decorative sash, and buttons down the front complete the dress. Buttonholes are made optional by an invisible zipper that we show you how to install up the back.
