On occasion I do pattern tests for those who aren't members of my family.
When I saw this pattern, I thought of Miss. E. She is a confident, beautiful girl who does this pattern justice!
The 10K Racerback for Girls by Pickle Toe Patterns spent quite a bit of time in testing being perfected. I really love how unique the 10K is, and how many options there are!
It can be a top, tunic or dress length; tank or racerback; can have bands or bindings; be slim or loose fitting; and it's color blocked!
To make it even better, it goes fantastic with the Circle Add-On Skirt (not pictured)
I did the dress length for Miss. E. however, I didn't add any length for her height so it ended up a little shorter than dress length on her. It reminds me of a tennis dress on her.
I also made the racerback version with bands.
I chose not to top stitch the color blocking because I had some issues with it during the fit version. I have a new sewing machine and I haven't played with it quite enough to figure out exactly what settings I need everything at yet.
Overall, we love the 10K Racerback! Even my teen found this dress waiting to go to Miss. E. and wanted it.
