New Laurel Dress/Tunic Pattern and a Giveaway! **CLOSED**

Greenstyle Creations recently had a tester call on their FB group.
After asking if it'd work for a baby belly, Angelyn told me she wanted me to test. I'm so glad I was able to!
The Laurel Dress/Tunic isn't meant to be a maternity pattern but it works so well as one!


I made the tunic length in size small, with a long bodice and above-the-elbow sleeves.
It even has pockets!
The fabric is an end piece from Fabricland that I've had in my stash for quite some time with the intent of making myself a top or dress.
Finally it has become one, and I'm so happy with the result!

26 weeks :)
With the pleats in the skirt it works very well to fit in my growing belly.
The amount of fabric I used was a piece that was 45" x 60", so not even 2 yards!


Now, just to await the arrival of my fabric order from Girl Charlee so I can make myself a dress with this pattern.

But, that's not all!
Angelyn is letting me give away a copy of the new Laurel Dress/Tunic right here!

To be entered to win, please leave a comment on this post letting me know your favourite pattern at Greenstyle Creations!

*Please make sure that your email address is linked to your comment, either through your profile or in the comment!* 

Giveaway closes on the 11th of March, and a winner will be picked at that time!

***Winner is #36 of the 40 participating comments, Melissa Chambers, who said: 'I love this pattern! I'm going to have to buy it - if I'm not the lucky winner - after seeing how you rock it on the baby bump! (due end of June)'***
And, if you don't win, you can always buy your own copy here!

    Love that it works for maternity!! Did you have to modify the pattern at all or did you get to sew it as it?
    My fav greenstyle pattern is the Amy skirt. it was an easy sew and looks fabulous!
