Tiers of Joy by Mandy K. Design and Giveaway

A couple of weeks ago I tested a fun little pattern by a new pattern designer...Amanda may be new to selling her patterns but she does have 25 years of sewing experience under her belt, that's nothing to sneeze at! Look for Mandy K. Design on Facebook, or get her patterns through Craftsy of Etsy. Use the discount code "JOY15" for a 15% discount at checkout valide through to April 2, 2014. Even better, I have an extra copy for a giveaway! (been doing a lot of those lately! I like that!) You can enter with Rafflecopter at the end of this post.

This pretty tiered dress, hence the name "Tiers of Joy", can also be made tunic length and with a simple skirt rather than tiered. You can also choose between regular bodice or slim fit. The tutorial is really easy to follow which makes it a great beginner's pattern.

The straps are ties at the shoulder, but can easily slip on and off without being untied every time.

The length is right to the knee...in my books, the perfect length for a spring/summer dress.

Amazing how a few paper butterflies can keep a toddler in place while trying to take pictures! Thank you Amelia for being so cooperative!
