Recommended Fabrics, Supplies, and Yardage Requirements

Fabrics & Supplies

Recommended Fabrics

We recommend knit fabrics that don’t fray, like stretch neoprene or scuba knit. You can also try stretch lace, nylon tricot, or ponte knit. The sleeve and gown hems are unfinished. Your fabric should have around 50% stretch (4 inches of fabric should stretch to 6 inches).

Notions & Supplies

Bryant Gown pattern from Charm Patterns
Fabric for the dress
Thread to match
Non-stretch lace trim (We used 2-inch-wide Venise lace trim, but use any width that is easy to shape around the neckline.)

How do I download, print, and use my PDF pattern?

If you have never used a PDF pattern before, this short video is full of tips: How to Use A PDF Pattern. It will show you how to choose which PDF format to use, how to print just your size(s), and how to easily assemble and cut out your pattern pieces.

We offer digital patterns in two formats: letter-sized PDFs to print at home and A0 sized PDFs to print at a copy shop. In the US, we highly recommend printing A0 files with The Plotted Pattern. Outside of the US, these printers have been recommended.
