Sundress and Top Yokes
Eight wide plates for sundress bodices and smocked tops, charted on 61 pleats. The width leaves room for a longer bodice and for the extra ease a top needs. The collection costs $19 once, with no subscription, and arrives as a ZIP with eight print ready PDFs, eight SVG charts and a short read me.
