zipper in the side seam and a lined top tier.

Suitable for intermediate sewers and above.

SUGGESTED FABRICS: 

Medium weight woven fabrics. Rayon, silk, washed linen, soft cottons.

Please note: If you’re using a patterned fabric with a repeat that you’d like to match, you may need more fabric than what is suggested above. Use your discretion.
Ensure your fabric is washed and pressed before cutting.
