Easy to FollowThe instructions were clear and easy to follow. I made three super cute smocks so far. I just wish the type would print out darker, as black instead of gray.1 of 1 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Fits together perfectly, well thought out additions.Despite being an experienced sewer and pattern drafter, this pattern was a lifesaver. It sewed up perfectly, with a perfect amount of growing ease, and was a much faster sew drafting on the fly. I made it up in plastic backed PUL, recommended, but just think about a coordinating bias/ neck facing fabric. Great for kiddo's with huge heads,mine does and he still doesn't need to undo the snap at the back of the neck.1 of 1 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Art SmockFantastic smock. The finished product is exactly what I was after. Easy to read instructions. Fabulous customer service.Was this helpful?Great patternI made 3 of these for Christmas presents and the kids(and parents) loved them. I found the pattern very straight forward and every step was explained well. If I make more, I will probably make them a little longer-just my preference.Was this helpful?Well loved smocksI made some smocks for a local child care centre i was helping out at as they couldn't buy smocks small enough. Thanks so much for this amazing pattern it was so easy to followWas this helpful?Perfect for Starting SchoolThis was a simple and effective design and it was very easy to print and cut out the pattern. The hardest part was selecting fabric to suit Miss 5's fashion style! I think the sizing was about right, but the beauty of an art smock is that you can err on the large size and it will still fit. This was a very quick and enjoyable project and look forward to the next one.1 of 1 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Digital Art SmockI made up this for my grandson who required it for school here in Aus. However very disappointing as it did NOT fit. I guess sizes are different in England.Was this helpful?Great patternVery practical style- Velcro closing at nape of neck, and the ends of neck elastic tuck in underneathWas this helpful?Digital Art smockSo easy to print off, very easy to understand, very happy with the pattern. The little one I made it for loves it, I will be using it againWas this helpful?Just What We NeededI needed some paint smocks for my kids and didn't want to just go the "old t-shirt" route. This pattern was perfect. Very detailed. I made 3 different sizes. I used snaps instead of velcro.Was this helpful?Good patternIt was great the large plan size page was included as the a4 prints weren't quite true to size. Pattern was easy to understand and make. My kids love their new smocks.Was this helpful?TerrificI loved this pattern it was easy to follow and the completed art smock was a huge success with my granddaughter. Would definitely use Oliver + s patterns again. Highly recommended1 of 1 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Art Smock PatternThis pattern is easy to sew and works very well, I made an art smock for my grandson going into prep, I would highly recommend this pattern. I have sewn velcro onto the back so it is easy for him to get in and out of the smock. He was thrilled with his shark art smock.Was this helpful?Art SmockI found this pattern very accurate and a joy to sew. I liked the fact that it has French seams as these make the smock very durable.2 of 2 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Quick and easyThis pattern is accurate, as usual with OliverandS, and very simple to make even for someone with little experience.
