Can this dress be made with normal 100% cotton fabric or does it have to be made with a knit type of fabric? I would like to make it out of plain cotton. I don’t have a very good selection of knit fabrics at my fabric store.
The Salina Dress is my favorite pattern…it is so classic, yet modern…and it is perfectly designed to fit American Girls…lovely!
My favorite pattern because can make it out of a variety of fabrics.
I love this pattern!! It’s so simple and the result is gorgeous! Definitely a favorite, though not my only one! I could never choose just one

This was the first Liberty Jane pattern my mom and I tried sewing, and this is DEFINITELY high up on my list of all-time-favourite-patterns! It’s SOO cute, and it seems simple enough(well, I just sat there and watched my mom sew, but it looked easy) and now I have ALL three different dress variations!

I neeeeeed this. Too cute to resist!
I downloaded this yesterday and made it last night. I just love the way it came out. Cut out another to make when I get home this afternoon. One of my many favorites.Thanks.
I love this dress pattern and would love to see it made in white lace.
This is one of my favorite patterns, I would like to see it made is a white eyelet fabric.
I have a question that someone else posted and didnt see an answer……Can you use cotton for this dress?? All i use is cotton so i make sure the dress can be made and made right with my fabrics. Thank you!!
Yes, woven cottons will work fine. The example on the cover is a chiffon which has a nice drape, cotton will be a bit stiffer. Here’s an example of a Salina Dress made in cotton: http://pinterest.com/pin/43206477645358464/ or here’s another example: http://pinterest.com/pin/43206477645321876/
I’d love to see this made in paisley print chiffon.
