I speak "less is (not) more" with regards to the instructions. It would have been better to have had more details on each sewing segment. Fortunately for me, I have sewn for long time and was able to fill in the blanks. Otherwise and also, just be sure you know this pattern is for stretch fabrics only! I didn't notice that when I ordered online and I made the dress in 100% cotton. It fits, but the need for flex is absent and would have allowed more comfort. The online ad didn't allow me to view the back in large enough font to catch this important element. Now YOU know.
