Step-by-Step Tutorial:

Prepare the pattern: Download and print the free PDF pattern for the dress, tulip sleeves, and pockets. Cut out the pattern pieces according to your size.
Fabric preparation: Pre-wash and iron your fabric to ensure it is ready for sewing. If necessary, interface the required pieces for added stability.
Cutting the fabric: Lay out your fabric and place the pattern pieces on top. Pin them down and carefully cut around the edges. Remember to transfer any markings or notches onto the fabric using a fabric marker or chalk.
Sewing the bodice: Follow the provided instructions in the pattern to sew the bodice pieces together, ensuring a precise fit. Add the square neckline and attach the tulip sleeves.
Adding the waist details: Sew the waist darts for a better fit, and create the V-shaped waist hem for added elegance.
Attaching the skirt: Gather the skirt panels and attach them to the bodice, ensuring the side seams match up. Hem the bottom of the skirt to your desired length.
Inserting the zipper: Install the zipper at the back of the dress according to the instructions provided. This will allow for easy wearing and removal.
Adding the side pockets: Sew and attach the side pockets at the desired location on the skirt. These pockets will add functionality and convenience to the dress.
Finishing touches: Give the dress a final press with an iron to smooth out any wrinkles and ensure a polished look.
