  • Ultimate Shift Dress Elasticated Sleeve piece
  • Ultimate Shift Dress Hem Tier piece

Sewing Level

The Ultimate Shift Dress pattern and Add-on Pack are aimed at Confident Beginners.

Fabric Suggestions

The Ultimate Shift Dress sewing pattern is extremely versatile when it comes to fabric. Most light or medium weight woven fabrics, such as cotton, linen, rayon, viscose, wool, crepe or even silk (if you’re feeling adventurous!) will work. Just remember that slippery fabrics are harder to sew!

Pattern Sizes & Fabric Requirements

The Ultimate Shift Dress and Add-on Pack are sized between UK sizes 6-30. The pattern is split into two different blocks, sizes 6-20 (B cup) and sizes 18-30 (D cup). See the size charts below for details on fabric requirements.

What will I receive?

The downloadable pattern file contains:

  • Printable PDF Pattern in sizes A4, US Letter & A0
  • Fully-illustrated printable instruction booklet

If you purchase the PDF Pattern + A0 Printing option, you will also receive your pattern printed on A0 paper in the post. Find out more about our A0 Printing Service here.

The Ultimate Shift Dress Add-On Pack pattern is either 21 A4/US letter pages or 1 A0 page (sizes 6-20), or 24 A4 pages, 26 US letter pages, or 2 A0 page (size 18-30).

What is a PDF pattern?

A PDF pattern is a downloadable pattern that you print yourself at home on A4 or US letter paper.

Choose to add on A0 printing and we will print the pattern on our A0 printers and post it to you so all you need to access digitally is the instruction booklet.

If you're using the A4 or US letter options, simply download, print at home, tape together and let the sewing begin! When you print the pattern, print at 100% (you might have to uncheck the scale box). Print page 1 first, the square should measure 10cm x 10cm.

Is this sewing pattern layered?

Yes! This pattern is layered so you can print off just the size(s) that you need. Find out more about layering here.

Like all our patterns, the sizes are nested to make it easier to grade between the sizes, depending on your measurements.

There is no print layout included in the PDF booklet of the Add-on Pack! Page 2 of the booklet is blank – is this where the layout should have been? This is incredibly frustrating as I don’t want to print another 21 pages. I simply want to print the hemline. I bought this Add-On pack to save time by not drafting a hem tier myself (it’s just a rectangle and isn’t complicated, though time consuming). I assumed that with this packet I would just be able to print what I want. Now I’m scrolling back and forth trying to make sense of PDF markings while wasting time. I regret buying this and I feel that it’s a complete waste of money.

Hi,

Thanks very much for taking the time to write your review. The Ultimate Shift Add-On pack is one of our older patterns and therefore doesn't come with a printing guide as all of our more recent patterns do. We are working through and updating our older patterns but with such a large back catalogue and a small team this is unfortunately a slow job.

If you ever have a question about a pattern then you can always get in touch with us on info@sewoverit.com. We can answer any questions and will be able to let you know this information straight away to save you the time on working it out. We'll also bump the Ultimate Shift Add-On to the top of the queue for being updated.

All the best,
the Sew Over It team.
