Amelie top & dress

See the fabric & supplies requirements chart among the pictures on this page.

YOU WILL NEED:
Fabric: Light to medium weight knit fabric, for example cotton/lycra jersey, with good stretch and recovery. Heavier knit, such as college or sweatshirt, is also good, but for the binding you should use light-weight knit.

Coordinating thread.

Sewing machine with a stretch needle. You can also use a serger/overlocker, but you don’t need to.

See the size guide table among the pictures on this page.

Choose a size based on your child’s chest width. If the child is between sizes, I recommend that you choose the larger size. Amelie was designed for knit fabrics with at least 30% stretch, so make sure your fabric has enough stretch. If not, I recommend to size up.
