Cordelia Dress Paper Pattern

The Cordelia Jersey Dress or Tunic is simple and elegant with a clever little twist at the front empire seam and gentle gathers that fall gracefully down the front. The back skirt has darts to give a nipped in shape, so it’s perfect for all shapes and sizes and will take you through all four seasons with ease.

Version 1

This is sleeveless so perfect for the hot summer days to come. Alternatively you can layer it over your favourite T-shirt too

Version 2

This has straight, set in sleeves that are 3/4 length, a little bit more covered up for cooler days.

Version 3

This has pretty flared short set in sleeves that give a softness to the overall feel of the dress.

All versions can be made to the shorter length to create a versatile tunic.

Light to medium weight jersey fabrics such as single jersey, double jersey or even a French terry jersey.

You will also need narrow 1/4 wide elastic and the correct needle for your fabric. A twin needle on your machine gives a great finish to the hems too.
