You can do so many things with a pattern. This time I’m highlighting the ‘Jayme Bodice Pattern’ that was created by Jayme DeHart, of Dehart Designs. She shared this with the Sewing Mama board and I’m uber thankful.
If you have finished Jayme bodice items, you can post a link here in the show notes. Thank you so much!
This is a free pattern she offers the sewing world, you can download it here:

These are dresses made by Jayme, followed by other mamas who took up the idea!

From Shannon Undershirt/boxers sets and an A-line summer dress:
From Cheryl These are wovens! she puts elastic inside the straps at top, for an easy fit, that doesn’t have the straps falling down on her “skinny minnie”. She also just did this one for St Pattys day, with a tie shoulder strap.

This one is made into a lined bodice with regular straps instead of bias and with button closure:
