Some time ago, I bought the pattern, even printed out all the pages, stuck them together and cut out my size!
And then I parked it, convincing myself it was too complicated for my basic dressmaking skills!
Well, this weekend I bit the bullet and did it!
I was pleasantly surprised at how easily this all came together, especially as I had never sewn a placket before! The pattern is really easy to follow & includes the option of a shorter/blouse version.
I used a lovely piece of (donated) vintage fabric, and teamed it with accents of Essex yarn dyed linen in denim. I'm particularly pleased with the fit!
I love tunics, and definitely see a lot more of these in my dressmaking future.
