Why I love this pick –
I haven’t had the chance to sew this pattern yet, but I know it would be the perfect addition to any spring or summer wardrobe. Make it in a linen, a linen blend, cotton, knits, a deadstock fabric, or a thrifted textile!
In this pattern, you’ll learn skills like how to make and apply bias binding and ties, and how to make and sew a ruffle hem. The pattern is so well written, easy to follow, and the illustrations are clear and detailed.
