ButterickPATTERNS B6838 Misses'/Misses' Petite Nightgown, Size LRG (L-XL)

I've made this pattern a dozen times, and I still get requests for nightgowns. Unfortunately, my original pattern has been lost, so I needed to replace it and it has been discontinued in the current pattern catalogue. I was happy to find it here. Score!

New pattern, as advertised. Offers many styles that I like. Length. Arm/sleeves options. I ordered LG./xlg. and now will size it down for a medium. A little cumbersome, but that's how patterns are sold. Want to sew a nightgown for my "medium sized" friend. Eventually will make myself a couple. A pattern is an investment. Bought pattern transfer paper roll to make adjustments for pattern sizes. Got the pattern first, then found out the notions I'd like to put on the selected nightgown. Then purchased the notions. Took a bit of time to get that all accomplished. Would buy from seller again. It came so fast and in great new condition.

This is my basic nightgown pattern. I've made at least 20 over the years. I bought a second copy because my original was falling apart, and I wanted to cut a smaller size for my daughter. It's super easy and very comfortable. If you make this, look up the "burrito method" to have a nice finish on your facing for the sleeveless version.

This pattern is really nice for an old individual such as my self who is use to this style. I tried to find something already made but nothing I liked. So I decided to put my skills to use. Thank you.

At least for me. Nobody wants to be uncomfortable when sleeping. I like these long, with short or no sleeves, for comfort. I like them to be roomy but not balloon-like, for comfort. I like the fabric to be Liberty Tana Lawn from England, for comfort. Not many options for getting that combination except to sew them myself, or pay someone to sew them up. Since I love to sew, it's more fun and *comfortable* to sew them myself. Several at a time. Win, win, win, comfort, comfort, comfort. :-)

Received my pattern in the mail as promised. New pattern all pieces and instructions included. Appreciate how prompt it was sent to me since I already had the fabric. Yes I recommend this seller.

Great Pattern

I like this pattern because it is a simple old fashioned night gown or even can be made to be a sundress or cover up. Even a Mu-Mu if you really want one. This is a simple to sew pattern as well and I love that I can adjust the length to whatever I want.
