From Merchant & Mills, the Factory sewing pattern is inspired by working women, with a dash of the Twenties. The Factory can be made either as dress or as a top!

The Factory Dress slips over the head, features pockets and ready-rolled up sleeves. The Factory dress is 'easy fit' so use the bust measurement only for sizing.

Skill level: Beginner

There are 2 multi-size options available:
- a multi-size paper pattern including sizes 8-18.
- a multi-size paper pattern including sizes 20-28.

All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless otherwise stated.

Suggested fabrics: Mid-weight dress fabrics from linen, linen blends, tencel, cotton chambray, very fine wool or corduroy.

You will also need:

  • Matching Thread
  • Lightweight interfacing 0.4m
  • Inner pockets can be made in self fabric or lining.
