Looks like it’s in stock at The Sewing Boutique’s online store. I can’t post a link to the website (gets filtered as suspected spam), but it shouldn’t be hard to find.

Holly, there’s always the option of purchasing the digital version and having it printed large format and mailed. This company does that.

Hi!
I’m looking for an uncut paper Cinema Dress pattern if anyone has one they’d like to part with. I’m stuck at home with no printer, and have always wanted to make this dress.
Stay well!

Any suggestions got how to manage this, patterns and adjustments and fit based on experience…[Read more]
