Designer's Challenge- Monkeysbug Patterns

February 17, 2015/ Robin Hill

It's that time of year again, when designers get together to try to come up with something out of the ordinary. Pattern Revolution hosts this fun challenge. This year, our group of a dozen ladies will each release our patterns on different days. Today is my day to show off Monkeysbug's new design!

After a lot of brainstorming, I decided to go back to the place I started. Comfortable tee shirts with fun appliques were the beginning of my online business days, and I've never lost the love. For the Designer Challenge, I've come up with the Jump Start Dress.

The dress is a simple design with inset pockets, but it's just a jumping off point. I've included instructions and pattern pieces for adding your own applique touches.

The testing group made so many great examples!

Check below for your chance to win a 3 pack of patterns from Monkeysbug, and stay tuned for a new pattern each day!
