I made a size 116/122. It is more like a tunic length on Moo. She's about 120cm tall. I should have measured and lengthened the pattern a bit as I intended it to be a dress. The pattern went together easily, but the directions were pretty vague. Luckily I've made a similar style before. I used a rib knit for the dress, so I stabilised the bottom edge of the bodice, so it wouldn't end up stretching out of shape. Moo likes it, so it can get a tick.
But Moo really likes the Farbenmix Roxy and so do I.
Because my girl is growing like a weed, I thought i would make a size 122/128, but based on the fit, I think a 110/116 would have been fine. I used some cotton jersey that I bought on clearance at Spotlight. I also used FOE for the first time.
I think I didn't stretch it enough as I put it on. But on the other hand it could be because of the size.
I used some ruffly elastic from my stash on the sleeve edges. Mollie loves it.
I am definitely going to make Roxy again. Next one will probably be in a woven.

They're both gorgeous dresses Sara, and just look at that beautiful girl!
Love the colours and style, as usual! I guess it helps having a daughter who actually looks like a model to show off the clothes you make!
Oh! I love the second Roxy dress! So pretty! You just inspired me to purchase that pattern! Thank you!
