The access to the video lessons is not limited in time.

- The dress pattern in all sizes and heights, in the PDF format (A4, letter) printable on a regular printer and plotter format (both). The size of the plotter format is indicated in the name of the document. You will need a plotter printer that can print at least 900 mm width.

- A workbook describing all the stages of the garment toile making process, correction of fitting issues, construction of the main garment illustrated by photos, tools and equipment required, as well as extra information on how to work with the Vikisews patterns (how to print them out and put them together), how to choose the right size.

- Video lessons on how to select the materials (main fabric, interfacing material, and notions), choose the right size, and adjust the garment to fit your waist and hip measurements

- Step-by-step video lessons on the following:

- how to cut the toile pieces, assemble them, and perform the toile fitting

- how to cut the garment pieces and sew the dress. These video lessons include such steps like finishing the front edges and armscyes with facings, sewing a collar with a stand, and finishing the seam allowances with bias binding if you don’t have an overlocker

- how to hack the Morgan dress into different versions

All the video lessons are divided into topics and provided in a consecutive order. Intense and concise, they are free from any irrelevant content.

- sewing machine for construction

- overlocker (this may be replaced with a bias binding finish)

- bias tape maker, 12 mm (1/2") (in case the dress will be sewn without an overlocker)

- stitch-in-the-ditch foot

- sewing machine needles Nos. 70–80–90, depending on the main fabric

To sew this dress, choose dress-weight fabrics with the following properties:

- medium weight, opaque, tightly woven, structured but not stiff, non- or low-stretch

- the fiber content can include natural fibers (cotton, linen), artificial fibers (viscose), and blends (linen + viscose, cotton + polyester, linen + polyester, cotton + viscose, etc.)

- the following fabrics are recommended: dress-weight linen, linen suiting, dress-weight cotton (sateen, poplin, lightweight denim), shirting fabrics, dress-weight viscose

Attention! We do not recommend stretchy knit fabrics and lightweight soft fluid sheer fabrics (silk, lightweight viscose, chiffon, organza, stretch lace).

The dress in the photo is made of 100% linen.
