The Schoolhouse Sundress is a beginner-friendly sewing pattern designed for creative play and joyful making. This breezy summer dress features a relaxed silhouette with spaghetti straps, a softly gathered neckline created by elastic channels at the front and back, and a high waist with delicately gathered side panels for a touch of volume and charm. The fit is intentionally loose and carefree, making it comfortable, flattering, and easy to wear in warm weather.

Fabric Recommendations:
The Schoolhouse Sundress is designed for flowy, relaxed woven fabrics that enhance its loose, voluminous, and dreamy silhouette. Choose fabrics with movement and softness for the best results. We recommend light to midweight linen or linen blends, cotton voile or lawn, cotton shirting with drape, or rayon/viscose wovens.
