Description
Autumn is coming, and this back-to-school jumper brings to mind the smell of burning fall leaves and crisp apples .This classic jumper and blouse comes in two variations.
View A jumper has a square neckline and the bodice is fully lined with a contrasting lining. The blouse has a peter pan collar with a front tab and long sleeves. The jumper is tailored with a box pleat.
View B has a V-neckline and a lined bodice. The blouse has a puff sleeve with a cuff, and a peter pan collar. The jumper has an inverted pleat in the center. Both jumpers have a waistband that is cut on the bias for a perfect fit.
Both Views can be worn as a sleeveless dress by removing the blouse.
Included as a BONUS ($5 value) is a school bag, which is edged with coordinating piping and is completely lined. The bag closes with Velcro or a snap, and has a button embellishment. If you would like to purchase the school bag separately, it is available here.

This pattern is so cute and the instructions were great. I even learned a technique that I have used on other dresses. Reminds me of my parochial school days!
