This was bought as a total trip down memory lane - I wore many Clothkits clothes as a child. I love the retro print and the babycord fabric - just as I remember dresses and dungarees in the 70s and 80s! A straightforward 'make' with good instructions. Including a size chart would be helpful as clothes sizes 8, 10, 12 etc vary across manufacturers.

I am delighted with my kit. Most of preparation has been done making the whole experience easier. You can’t fail if you read and follow the instructions. The quality of the kit is very pleasing as it is difficult to find good quality materials from other sources. I used cloth kits for my children in the 7’s and their standards have not dropped. Thank you clothkits for enabling one of my favourite hobbies to come back into my life.

I have bought this kit for my daughter in the hope she will get as much pleasure from Clothkits as I did when she was young. The style and colours are still amazing, simple yet different. We’ll see how she gets on over the next month or so.

I love this skirt and it’s had so many compliments. It also takes me back to my childhood in a way

clear instructions and easy to follow. I added my own lining as ordered without and that worked well.

Clothkits ae back! I was a Clothkits fan in the 80s. I madedungarees, padded jackets and loved them. My friends were very complimentary. Easy to make, great
