I am super dee duper excited to release the Ressica Raglan top and dress pattern today! It’s been a long time coming and I am so glad it’s out!
The name is based on my nickname as a kid-one I love! Ressica Jachel…hehe, obvs just my first and middle initials being swapped in front of the names….my dad used it and even sang a little song.
Ok since I know you want to know how it goes….
“Ressica Jachel! Cuter than a bug, sweeter than a pea, oh my yesiree!”
Now that I’ve sufficiently embarrassed my Dad….
So when I couldn’t think of anything that went with Raglan-I went with the old standby nickname!
A HUGE thank you to my testers-come back later today or tomorrow for a post with all their lovely Ressicas!
Purchase your copy right here! Sizes 12mo-8 years!
I went pretty classic with all the sample fabrics this time-this polka dot and pale blush are delish, right?
I wanted to show the dress in all one fabric, and this lovely plaid fit the bill! (all of the fabrics are from Joanns)
and I LOVE this one! grey and white tiny pinstripes? SOLD.
On my beautiful Kraken? even better. (want to know about that nickname? hit up my Instagram! lol)
O do they look smart! Fit seems really good, nice work ๐
Love!!! Added to my “must buy” list for pay day! lol
I love the new pattern! Your girls look adorable as usual. I was wondering, do the buttons have to be opened to get the top/dress on? My littlest girls will not wear anything with buttons! If the buttons are decorative I could substitute them with something else like a trim.
not really! I usually just unbutton the top one, if that! ๐
Release the Kraken! (also a running joke on an Australian current affairs spoof “Mad As Hell” I can only imagine your little angel going all crazy octopus on you – or have i completely misunderstood the joke? Anyway, cute little pattern, well done!
you have it exactly right! lol
So adorable Jess!!!
Thanks Delia!
Wow so cute! !! You’re so talented! This is my fav pattern yet
thank you!!
Everytime I look at fabric in our local fabric shop I see this adorable plaid seersucker but haven’t bought it because I had no plans for it. Well, now I know exactly what I’m going to do with it! Thanks for another cute pattern!
yay! I love when fabric is bossy like that. ๐
Do you think a Peter Pan collar could be added easily enough to this dress? Or do you think the neckline is too loose?
hmm, I haven’t tried that or thought of doing it. Not sure!
