I am Cindy Mini, I AM Pattern’s first children’s sewing pattern created in collaboration with @ledressingdecindy. I am a panelled circle skirt. My pockets on the sides are a playful detail which comes handy too. My waistband opens on the side with a button and an invisible zipper. I whirl around with you everyday and I accompany you on absolutely all your adventures.
This pattern offers the possibility of sewing an adjustable elastic waistband. The skirt will fit the child for longer without compromising on comfort. If the child is between 2 sizes or if you want to size up, sewing the adjustable waistband will be very convenient.
Paper Pattern:
All seam allowances are included in the pattern.
The pattern is enclosed in an envelope. It contains the sewing pattern along with a step-by-step illustrated explanation guide.
The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper. If you prefer a ready-to-cut pattern, try the pdf version as pieces do not overlap with each other.
The size ranges from 3 to 14 years old. See sizing guide below.

The sizes available are age 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 . See sizing guide below.
