Ever since I made my first School House Tunic for the Fall Palette Challenge I have been wearing all the time, pretty much, if it’s clean, I’m wearing it.
I fell in love with this pattern for three reasons:
- I can cut it out and sew it up in day, and I’m not a quick sewer;
- It looks nice enough to wear to work;
- It is soooo comfy!
It’s also fairly easy to adapt. For this version I added some more substantial button loops (thanks to Mags and Bristol for help with the placement) and I’ve got fabric lined up for a longer version with some pintucks planned.
The fabric in this one is slightly stiffer than the last one, which gives it a crisper shape, and I’m in love with the Anna Maria Horner print.
- Top: School House Tunic, made by me
- Skirt: made by me
- Tights: Target
- Shoes: Clarks
- Robot Bracelet: by Hobomoon on esty
I can’t wait until I have time to sew a third version. Do you have a favorite go-to pattern?
