  1. [...] Here’s a cute 1930s Vintage Inspired Dress Pattern now available for purchase at Liberty Jane Patterns!  [...]

    This was my last purchase from Liberty Jane. I loved the collar on this dress and that was the main reason I bought it. However, the sleeves were so tight I had to redo them and ultimately alter the sleeve pattern. It was also way too tight around the waist. I have four AG dolls and some of the older ones are a little more chubby so this pattern doesn’t fit that well

    Please help! I ordered 2 patterns, The midnight gala dress and the 1930′s dress pattern. I clicked on the free Shiney Happy dress and printed it and went back to download the 1030′s pattern & it was gone. What did I do wrong and can you reload it for me to print.
    I also noticed that when the midnight gala dress printed, the sleeve instructions looked like they were for the 1930′s dress. I need help don’t I? Thanks Crystal

    I see above that another person bought this pattern with the same results for the sleeve. Shame on me for not making a muslin of the dress before cutting out several dresses to sew. I am wondering if there is an update to the pattern with corrected sleeve sizing? I will change the sleeve pattern myself for future projects. Sadly that won’t be done for those already cut as I was working with a minimal amount of heirloom 30′s fabric.
    I did not, however, have the same problem with the waist. The dress, now sleeveless, fits nicely on my daughters older PC doll as well as the new AG doll. I can’t speak for the other generations of the AG dolls.

  5. Kathy E says:

    I love this dress but I’m concerned about purchasing the pattern since 2 people have commented on the sleeve problem. I am not experienced enough to change a pattern. Does anyone know if the pattern has been updated?

  6. Dawn N says:

    I would really love to buy this pattern, but I am not a very trained seamstress. Do you have any advice on how to handle the sleeve issue?

  7. Aleesha says:

    I downloaded this pattern about a month ago and just started stitching it today- the sleeve pattern is REALLY tight. Its almost like it was made without a seam allowance. It says it is sized for a 1/4 inch seam but even the skirt needs a little extra. You don’t need extra fancy sewing skills to modify this pattern- just pretend there is no seam allowance and cut it out with an extra 1/4 inch or so all the way around. And yes, I did print it out at “actual size” and not “shrink to fit”
