The Syli sewing pattern includes two variations. Both the dress and the blouse are relaxed everyday garments with a loose fit. They feature a gathered bodice, a shallow tuck across the chest, and a hemline that dips slightly longer in the back. The neckline is finished with binding with a back vent secured by ties. The calf-length dress has two deep tucks around the hemline of both the skirt and sleeves as well as in-seam side pockets. The ¾-length sleeves of the dress have gathered ends finished with binding and ties. The blouse is hip length and has straight ½-length sleeves with turned hems.

FABRIC RECOMMENDATIONS:
Choose a light to medium-weight, non-stretch fabric. Depending on the desired result, you can select either a low-drape fabric or a fabric with a little drape. Cotton, linen, Tencel and rayon shirtings or dress-weight fabrics are recommended.
You can cut the binding from your fabric or choose a premade binding. If your fabric is light or drapey, interface the pocket openings of the dress using fusible interfacing.
