Mod Gal & Baby Doll by Moonshine Design

The Mod Gals dress pattern is hip and fun and would look fabulous in many of the groovy retro prints that are in vogue at the moment. Whip one up for your daughters or granddaughters or teach them how to make their own dresses with this very simple to follow pattern. Designed with an easy fit to suit all figure types it features draw string shoulders with adorable bows and a tie at the back of the dress, allowing the garment to be worn either fitted or loose.
