Meet Flora!


Flora Dress and Top girl's smocking and sewing pattern

Flora is one of the newest patterns from Pink Hollybush Designs and today I would like to tell you a little more about her. Flora is a surplice dress or top made in an easy care and comfortable knit for today’s girl. With a simple pull on over the head style, Flora is quick to sew and comfortable to wear. The dress even comes with pockets for all her treasures! Flora can be a lovely dress (View A), or a darling peplum top (View B). Both the dress and the top can be smocked or simply gathered. Flora comes with a breezy flutter sleeve for summer or a long gathered sleeve and cuff for cooler weather. The long sleeved version of Flora will be in the upcoming Holiday 2021 issue of Classic Sewing Magazine.


Flora is available as a printed pattern, a PDF digital download, and as a kit with pre-pleated fabric if you would like to smock Flora. Here is a video so I can tell you a little more about Flora.

Here is the darling smocked Flora top made by Kelli Fox. Kelli used our Gray Stars Knit for her Flora Top.

Of course, Flora can be simply gathered as I did in this dress. I made this Flora Dress with our Fun Flowers Knit.

I hope you will give Flora a try - Happy Sewing!
