It's clearly a simple project. The smock is long-sleeved and buttons or snaps at the back. I don't actually recall what attachment they ask for, but I wish I had snap pliers. Ah, well - a button it was...on both versions I sewed up this weekend.

As you can see, Camden received the super scrappy version. I was again trying to be smart and resourceful and use only fabrics I had. The pattern pieces are LARGE, though, so, it was tricky to find fabric large pieces enough that I didn't mind using on an art smock, LOL. I did manage to do it, though I am pretty sure one or two of the pieces are cut against the grain, but no biggie.
The pattern does call for a couple pockets, but as with the first time around, I saw them more as a problem design element than as a useful feature, so, I didn't give Camden pockets. On the other version, a birthday gift for a friend, I sewed on one pocket, just in case. I picked up both fabrics at Joann Fabrics - each at 50% off, which was nice! The pairing is super cute, and I wish we could keep it, aha! (I cannot find the fabrics at their site, though - sorry!) I hope the birthday girl loves it!!
Can I just say, though, how OLD she looks in these pictures???!!! NUTS!
