The Porch Goose Easy Dress is sized for porch geese of 17, 23 and 27 inches: Small, Standard and Large. It is a beginner project that takes about 2 h, in 10 steps. For a 23 in goose you need ¾ yd of cotton. You will practice gathering a skirt, setting in sleeves and binding the neckline with ties.
The Goose Easy Dress is the beginner version: a top with sleeves, one gathered skirt loop and a bow at the back, with no hat. It takes about 2 hours in 10 steps, from one cotton fabric. The themed outfits add a collar, bands and a cap to this same top.
