The only pattern modification necessary for the Driftwood Maxi Dress is to the skirt pattern piece.
Simply look up the size you are making in the following table, then add the dimension listed from the length of the knee-length skirt piece:
| Size | 18-24m | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 10 |
| Amount to add (cm) | 23.5cm | 24.2cm | 24.5cm | 24.7cm | 25.0cm | 26.0cm | 27.0cm | 29.0cm |
| Amount to add (inches) | 9.25" | 9.5" | 9.6" | 9.7" | 9.8" | 10.2" | 10.6" | 11.4" |
You may wish to add this amount to the skirt pattern piece when you are tracing it, or you could also pin the knee-length pattern piece to your fabric and mark the extra length on your fabric before cutting.
Sew your dress as outlined in the pattern tutorial.
