I'm looking for an adult-sized pattern for the pink shirt that the little girl is wearing in the bottom of this photo.

I think this is a pattern envelope from the 1970s.

I've searched, but I don't know exactly what this top is called, and it's not working for me!

THANK YOU -- to craftybear and everyone else!

Looks pretty close to me. I have no idea, though, if it's still a valid pattern number. You'll have to check that out.

Here's the pattern on sale:

Looks like it's called a Jiffy dress in the toddler size but the adult Simplicity "Jiffy" dress is a totally different pattern.

It doesn't look too complicated (only 2 pieces). If you're feeling a bit adventurous, maybe you can buy the child's pattern just to get an idea of how it's put together, and then draft your own pattern for a larger size.

I will surf and see if I can find anything and also hope others can help me out on this search for you

I found this little girl's one online...it was sold, but at least it has a name to hlep you look for one in an adult size...It was the same as the one you showed, just in a different color

no, Jiffy dress patterns came in alot of different styles...the Jiffy part merely meant 'easy to make'

Check McCalls 6303 for a pattern.

Shows you how much I know about sewing clothes!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Thanks for the clarification.

This is the pattern I was thinking of, too. I *may* have an uncut copy of it if you are interested. I would have to look.

I believe I bought it last year. I think you can still purchase it.

Do you think I could shorten the apron to make it a shirt?

I'm TERRIBLE at sewing clothes...
